Mastermason.com began offering free webspace to members of the Masonic Fraternity over a decade ago with the purpose of providing lodges and their members an affordable option for publishing their homepages with a short and easy to remember URL or web address. Our service is free of advertisements and comes with no strings attached. We provide up to 500 mb of space to members of the fraternity and our users have 100% control over the material & content of their sites. Our only restriction is that no sites under our domain may portray Freemasonry in an uncomplimentary manner, and our users must be a member in good standing of a regular and accepted Lodge of Mainstream or PHA Freemasonry (AF&AM, F&AM). As a public service to the fraternity, Mastermason.com is not affiliated with any Grand Lodge, nor do we speak as an authority or representative of Freemasonry or any of its affiliated Grand Lodges. We simply provide a convenient means for our brothers and their lodges to have a homepage on the Internet.
These are the common web services and extensions that we support with our commercial or paid service. There may be others not listed, and if you have special needs which are not listed, feel free to contact us.

We can host a domain name that you already own or register a new domain name for you. The cost for registering a domain name is $10 and your domain is renewed annually for the same cost. There is no cost if you own your own domain name. For those who do, you can continue to pay your current Domain Registrar each year and just change your Name Servers to our Name Servers once your site has been uploaded.
With our Hosting Service you may have an unlimited number of email addresses and mailboxes on our mail server, using your domain name. Our Mail Server supports POP3, IMAP, Email Alias Addresses, Mail Forwarding, Auto-Responders, Mailing Lists, and has a full featured Webmail interface which allows you access to your email from any Internet connected computer, along with SPAM filtering to help keep your influx of SPAM to a minimum. Your Administrative Email account has an unlimited size, and all of your other mailboxes come with a 90 megabyte mailbox size. The 90mb limit can be increased upon request.
The full cost for all of the above services is $70 per year if we register and maintain your domain name, or $60 per year for everything if you own and maintain your own domain name. We charge our clients annually or once each year, and payment can be made via check or through PayPal. There are no other hidden costs or setup fees.
