Web Hosting News for Window Cleaners…

Hey All:

Over the last few years, I've been asked many, many times about online related stuff like websites, what hosting companies are good, where to get domain names, etc. etc. As far as hosting and domain names, they have come way down from what they used to be priced at.   I remember when domain names were $70 for the year. Yikes. Now you can get 'em for $6.99 per year. Cool.

And if you're about to get a website online, one of the hosting companies you should look at is ipower.  Visit their page and bookmark it so that you've got the info. available when you're ready to launch your website. They've got a super inexpensive hosting rate ($4.95 per month) and their uptime is close to 100% (99.9% to be exact). This is important because you should consider your host as a business partner. If your site is down or offline on a regular basis, it doesn't make you look good. 

I mean if visitors visited 3 Bears Window Cleaning Directory only to land on a "page not found" page, it'll make visitors not visit anymore. If The Customer Factor window cleaning software was offline or "down" due to the ineptness of my hosting company, that would result in many upset members as it should. They need access to their business data all the time 'round the clock. So the bottom line is to make sure that if you have a website, you need to get yourself a hosting company which has great "uptime". And when you combine the uptime found at ipower with a cheap price and 24/7 phone/email support, you've found the perfect hosting company to host your website. If you have any questions on this, please let me know. I'll be glad to walk  you through the "techy" issues that some folks have when getting their hosting company set up.

Oh…and if you have a website and you already have a hosting company, then take a look at what you're paying. ipower helps move website owners over to their plan all the time from hosting companies charging too much. The problem is that some website owners have had the same hosting company hosting their website for a long time. And as pricing has come down, the hosting company may not tell you about it.  So you might be stuck paying a higher rate then new customers who are signing up to that same plan. So again, if you have a website, look at the hosting company pricing that you're paying. If it's more than $4.95 per month, then give ipower a look.

Note: For obvious reasons, the websites I own which require more power, more space, more bandwidth, more features, etc. are not on the $4.95 plan. I have special servers for 3 Bears Window Cleaning Directory and The Customer Factor due to their special requirements. But for a basic static html window cleaning website, the ipower $4.95 plan is all you need.

Sincerely,

Steve
