Testimonials

“Advertising on HighCountryWebCams.com is one of the best business decisions I’ve ever made. Since placing an ad on this highly trafficked site, I have been contacted by more potential clients than ever before—and almost all of them say they heard about me on HighCountryWebCams.com. Anyone who has ever been involved with real estate in the mountains of North Carolina knows how aggressive this field can be, but by getting my name out there on one of the most popular web sites in the area, I have managed to gain a stronghold in this competitive market. As a real estate agent in the High Country area, this partnership has proven extraordinarily productive, and I would definitely recommend that any business owner looking to attract more potential customers advertise with HighCountryWebCams.com.”

Interested in Hosting or Buying a Webcam?

Webcams, live cameras, web cameras - whatever the name, Appnet can handle it!

While our primary business is that of building and promoting websites, we have been called on in increasing numbers to install and implement live webcams all across the United States. We have installed them in locations such as Truckee, California (which promotes themselves as the snow capital of the United States).

We now operate two hugely well visited webcam network sites in North and South Carolina. They are: High Country Webcams which receives as many as 14,000 unique visitors every single day and our newest cam network website called Lowcountry Webcams which will promote live cameras in the Lowcountry areas at the beaches, lakes and locations around the coastal regions of South Carolina.

We own many of the cameras that are displayed on our website and we also have formed some very progressive partnerships with business owners who wish to market strong, additional traffic to their business websites. These synergies work to create some incredible traffic to our camera partners and we'd be happy to discuss those partnerships if you're interested.

Camera Descriptions and Pricing

You can Google "pan, tilt and zoom, outdoor, weatherproof, network cams" and you'll find pricing on various systems that range from around $2000 to $5000. We have purchased and implemented a wide variety of these systems and while most (not all) offer pretty good quality images, we have found a custom solution that works to provide the best TOURISM camera quality and image (speed) delivery.

Since our camera image delivery is based on the need for the highest resolution possible, we tend to stick with one of two different camera manufacturers (Panasonic or Canon). We fit those systems into an outdoor enclosure that depending on the location can range from marine quality (for salt water/near ocean environmental applications) to enclosures that will handle extremely hot and/or cold climates such as on top of mountain peaks or in climates where temperatures can exceed 100°.

We include heaters and blowers within these systems and these are fully, self-contained systems that need no computers to operate.

Unlike many companies that sell camera systems, we want to be fully transparent in our pricing.

There are basically two options that we offer:

Camera System Purchase Only:

Price is for equipment, configuration and coding to accomplish your desired application. We will ship the camera at standard rates and all you'll have to do is plug it and connect it to your DSL or CABLE connectivity.

We will be happy to provide phone support wherein we can walk you through the connectivity and have your webcam working for you typically in less than 20 minutes. If you wish, depending on the location, we can deliver and install the camera for you. Pricing varies based on mileage and camera location/installation difficulty. Call for pricing.

Note: Most camera sales companies will sell you the equipment for a price only slightly below our fee and they will not configure them for your internet connection nor offer any real support.

$2995

Camera System Purchase and Marketing (Traffic driving) Partnership:

We will fully configure the camera system and ship it to you as above and then HOST the live camera image at NO COST to you. We will create the script for you to get the camera image on your own website and then create a marketing page on either HighCountryWebCams.com or LowcountryWebCams.com (depending on camera location) and add a static advertisement that will run for the life of the camera at no charge. This is where the traffic driving will come from.

These synergies have produced incredible marketing value to every single business that has entered into these partnerships. We will send your company website more productive traffic than you'll see from any other kind of marketing promotion that you've attempted.

As with the first option we can discuss phone support and/or camera installation pricing if necessary.

Affordable Outdoor Camera System

We have engineered an affordable outdoor camera system that offers a pan, tilt and zoom camera, live on the net viewing, with heated outdoor enclosure to keep the cold and rain from prohibiting views...complete with our expert configuration to work with your DSL or CABLE internet connection.

Some of the newer camera enclosures tend to be rather bulky and unattractive but we can outfit a custom setup that provides for an attractive install. The camera enclosures that we use look much like an old-fashioned street lamp and even with wireless applications we can provide a setup that will not make for an "ugly" install.

Once we have configured these cameras with your internet connectivity installation is relatively simple.

Four carriage bolts, 110v power and internet connection will have you running in very short order and we provide all of the phone support needed to get your up and running without having to learn "how it all works"!

We prefer the quality and visual presentation of Canon or Panasonic cameras and either provides us with options that will allow for:

21x optical zoom or higher
380,000 pixel CCD image sensor or better
High speed Pan/Tilt operation
Viewing Images from the Network Camera on TV
Multi-Camera Screen
A wealth of Network Camera control functions
External I/O
Remote Pan/Tilt - High speed Pan/Tilt operation can move the lens horizontally from -175° to +175° and vertically from -120° to 0°
Preset Positioning and Home Positioning features to memorize camera positions
Color Night View enables the Network Camera to display color images of objects even at a dark place
Heater and Blower to protect the instrumentation during cold, wet or hot climates
