Because of this, I would highly recommend […]
I keep seeing this issue come up inside the helpdesk (as well as on Stack Overflow), so I thought I’d save us all sometime by doing a guide on how to connect to your NameHero hosting account via SSH and SFTP. First, it’s important to note that SSH/SFTP is disabled on all Web Hosting and […]
Over the last couple of months we’ve had several resellers ask what they can do when they have a customer that needs more resources. At NameHero we have solutions for websites of all sizes. This is personally right up my ally as prior to starting NameHero I owned several different popular websites reaching upwards of […]
At Name Hero we allow all customers the ability to take full control over their PHP settings right inside of cPanel.
