Communication Platform
Your new website includes a Communication Platform so you can easily stay in touch with your residents. They can subscribe and receive notifications.
Residents simply add their email address or cell phone number and choose the topics that interest them. Your residents will get instant notifications whenever categories they’ve subscribed to have new items posted.
Messages are sent via email or text, so residents don’t have to go to your website to read them.

Personable Service
Municipal clerks and staff members love having Town Web as their Maine web design provider because they can rely on us for anything related to their website. All it takes is a call, email or chat message (including Facebook Messenger), and we can post or edit something on a page.
Our “white-glove” 24/7 support is like an “all-you-can-eat buffet.” You get as much as you want for a fixed price, with no surprises and no extra billing.
Furthermore, we take care of issues as quickly as possible, and most issues are resolved by the end of each eight-hour shift.
Customized
For You
Our municipal website software is called TownCMS. It has evolved over the years. The latest version is TownCMS “Juniper”. It’s a highly customized site that offers another level of simplicity, usability, speed, and security which promises extremely fast speed (for the benefit of your citizens) and a very high level of security (to the satisfaction of your IT staff).We designed a municipal CMS solution to solve the need of fewer resources and the need for consistent communication from the municipality to its residents. Project Juniper eliminates the need for municipal staff to concern themselves with tech stack and keeping it operational, but to focus on serving their community. As a matter of fact, Town Web municipal websites are the preferred Maine web design for use by municipal administrators, municipal clerks and their elected officials. We designed it to solve specific problems, such as posting minutes and agendas, which is different from websites that post blogs or articles.
Our goal is to make your municipal website easy for residents to find agendas, minutes and anything else they need.
Additionally, your website gets better over time. We constantly add new features, enhancements and updates. You get these upgrades automatically, so this site will be the last one you’ll ever need!
Town Web made it easy for the city of Bowling Green, Missouri, to switch from CivicPlus and launch a great looking website for a lower price!
From the start, Town Web staff were “very approachable, easy to speak with,” said Linda Luebrecht, city clerk/administrator. “They just seemed to be a little quicker to respond back to you."
