Hosting Wars Heating Up

Tuesday, February 17th, 2009

We’ve added a new article to the website about the current hosting wars going on.  Here’s an excerpt:

It’s worth asking how hosting companies can afford to allow their users to remain on the service with such a low monthly cost – especially when many of the best hosts no longer require setup fees.  The truth behind the matter is they can only afford such low prices in the long run.  Web hosts depend upon customers sticking with them.  Customers who have a life-span of less than a year are generally going to bring a loss to the host, but the truth is that most clients are interested in keeping their hosting for more than a year.

Hosting costs are indeed at an all time low for the consumer and there are lots of great options out there for a hosting service. Currently our top choice is BlueHost as they are offering a limited time special offer on their already top tier hosting package. Sign up with them right now and save nearly 35% off their normal hosting package.

Spam Increasing, and This Time it`s Personal

Monday, February 2nd, 2009

We found an interesting article about how the nature of spam is changing and becoming more targeted. Here’s an excerpt from the article:

The problem, though, is that we are now inundated by spam in all of its various forms — from e-mail to texts — and it is becoming more personal, more dangerous and more legitimate-looking in terms of its appearance.
