First of all, let’s get the legal mumbo jumbo out of the way. I did not receive any compensation for appearing in this video, writing this post, or endorsing the company involved in the project. So take THAT, Federal Trade Commission.
One of the most important things in establishing a presence on the
Internet is to have a dependable, reliable
web hosting service. The company you choose is your lifeline to the Internet, and they have to provide hosting, keep your
domain registration straight, and make sure that you’re not missing any opportunities to promote your business on the web.
For a long time, I was a customer of
GoDaddy.com. Their prices were fair, their service was good, and they never messed me over. However, they made the critical error of
supporting Internet censorship legislation and I could no longer do business with them in good conscience. I asked my friends and
Twitter followers who provided good hosting and domain services, and heard about a company called
name.com. After a little investigation, I moved all of my websites to name.com and have since advised my clients to do business with them as well.
This company provides excellent customer service, comes up with great solutions to my silly problems, and has a great sense of humor. You can see the latter in this video that they produced over the last couple of weeks. They were looking for people to be a part of it, and were kind enough to ask me to join the fun, but you have to look fast to see my appearances. I’ll give you a hint, I’m wearing the shirt of
my heroes.
No, that is not me in the picture above.
The video is a cute diversion, the work of some people who are really bright about the Internet and know how to have fun at the same time, and comes from a company that I highly recommend if you are looking for any kind of Web services. Just to be clear, read the first paragraph of this post and you’ll see that I got nothing for saying that. Nothing. Nada.
If you are so inclined, check out name.com’s blog as they are running a contest in connection with this video. Clearly I have no chance of winning it, but you might and it could be worth entering. If nothing else, you can learn a little bit more about this great little company in Denver and the high quality work that they do for Mark Edwards Worldwide, our clients, and people around the country..
