What is managed hosting? Simply put, it means we’re the caretakers of your website. We continuously monitor your site’s performance, making sure it can always handle the amount of traffic it gets. We back up your data and install your security certificates. We run analytics software and send you weekly reports: how many visitors are you getting? What browsers are they using? How long are they sticking around?
As your website host, we know the intricacies of your server environment. That means we can more efficiently add features to your site when desired. Need a new sub-domain (e.g., http://sub.yourdomain.com) to run a special promotion? No problem. How about an FTP site? Or your own branded calendar, mail, and document-sharing system via Google Apps? No worries – that’s what managed hosting is all about. You make the call and we make it happen.
As your website consultant, we want to see you succeed. That’s why we offer expertise in the latest online marketing techniques to attract and retain customers. Search Engine Optimization. Pay Per Click advertising. Tweets, fan pages, blogs, and articles. We know how to get you maximum exposure in today’s crowded cyberspace market.
It starts with market research and a thorough analysis of your current web presence (if any). We identify your company’s online strengths and weaknesses relative to your competitors, and then generate fresh new marketing ideas to put you in the spotlight.
After implementing your online marketing strategy, we measure the results and summarize them for you in ongoing weekly reports.
Probably the most critical service we provide is on-demand technical support. During business hours (M-F, 9am-5pm EST) we are available by phone to help with any issues that arise. We also offer an “emergency service” package for technical phone support any day of the week, any hour of the day.
If you’d like to take advantage of our professional support but your site is hosted elsewhere, we offer transfer services to move your site to our servers.
