Atomic 55 - Hosting- Real Estate unaffected by sub prime mortgages.
Hosting is one of those things that even we as a hosting company forget about from
time to time. The reason we forget is because it’s second nature to us, the reason our
clients forget, is generally because they don’t understand what hosting is, why they need
it, or what the difference is between $.99 hosting and $36.99 hosting. In an effort to
educate let’s take a stroll into the world of web hosting for a moment shall we?
Hosting is easily explained as the real estate in which your domain (www) resides.
It allows you to receive email most importantly, but it also allows the world to view
your website. Hosting is not the same with every hosting company and here are a
few reasons why:
1.) you get what you pay for
2.) you get what you pay for
3.) you get what you pay for
Any questions? OF course there’s more...
If you were to think of the most important thing that your website does for you then
what would it be? If you answered allow me to keep in touch with my clients then you’re
heading down the right path. If you answered allow me to maintain a strong connection
with my mothership then that’s just plain weird. At any rate, the most important
thing about hosting is reliability. If you’re site goes down you have no email,
you have no presence. Translation? You’re broke as a joke, dead in the
water, sliding down a slippery slope, ya feel me?
Our hosting comes with a bonafide hosting nerd. You don’t get to take him
home or anything like that (nor would you want to-his housekeeping habits are
terrible) but he’s here for you to lean on. Our hosting guy knows the ins and outs
of a server farm (it’s where his career started) and he can dissect DNS faster than you
can say formaldehyde. So if you’re looking for someone that’s not just throwing in a
ticket to put you at the mercy of the system then give us a call. We can show you what
your $36.99 can do for you.
