Provided by the Student Government Association and the Division of Campus Life, EmoryLife is a fast, free way for student organizations to develop a web presence. We’ve provided the tools, templates, and the funding. All you have to do is provide the content.
When your organization signs up, you’ll have the opportunity to pick your own subdomain of emorylife.org. Yourorganization.emorylife.org will become your very own URL, allowing you to market and link your website any way you see fit. Spend lots of time thinking about it, though. One you pick a subdomain, you can’t change it!
The EmoryLife platform runs on WordPress, so managing, updating, and maintaining your website has never been easier. WordPress is just as dynamic as your organization, and allows you to edit content without knowing anything about websites. Adding functionality is a snap with plugins, and you can even create private pages and documents that only your members can access!
The look of your website should reflect your organization. To make this possible, a wide range of WordPress templates have been made available that reflect different visual styles, content layouts, and color schemes. It’s your website, and we think you should make it look that way! If you don't like any of the approved templates, that’s okay, too. Find one you like, fill out a form, and the EmoryLife team will see if it meets our guidelines.
Student organizations have enough headaches, and we believe that running and paying for a website shouldn't be one of them. The EmoryLife platform is free for registered Emory student organizations. Storage? Free. Hosting? Free. You don't need to know anything about FTP, HTTP, servers, or the internet.
Right from the start Visual Composer is here to help you. Within minutes you can build complex layouts without touching a single line of code. Visual Composer comes with 40+ built in content elements and integrates with our themes and plugins to give you incredible customization power.
