Web Hosting Tips & Resources From NameHero
I’ve worked online long enough to know backups are essential to your business. If you’re running your own VPS then you best have a good backup system and disaster recovery plan in place as you never know what is going to happen! By default, backups aren’t included in our VPS hosting packages, you must add […]
Recently Cloudflare announced the addition of their new Argo Smart Routing service. According to their website, Argo Smart Routing reduces Internet latency on average by 35%; connection errors by 27%. Cloudflare routes 10% of all HTTP/HTTPS Internet traffic providing Argo with real-time intelligence on the true speed of network paths. Argo’s smart routing algorithm uses this […]
Knowing what I know now about the Internet, I would love to go back to 1994 and register every single .com domain I could think of. Back then, the cost of a domain was more expensive, but the ROI eventually became explosive. Nowadays in 2017 many people feel like the “best days” of buying premium […]
A lot of direct sales companies have blown up in recent years with the rise of social media. Companies such as Scentsy, Lularoe, Lev-Vel, etc. have leveraged these platforms through their armies of independent consultants to do some astronomical revenues (I think Scentsy is doing somewhere north of $400MM a year).

Managing multi-million dollar ad budgets along with developing a patent-pending tracking and analytics platform, it’s safe to say I learned a thing or two about the best times to market to potential customers. One thing every marketer must be aware of and […]
I used to joke with my former business partner about making live site edits. When you have a website that your customers depend on logging in/ordering the last thing you want to do is make a live site edit. Based on nearly two decades working online, I always like to plan for the unforeseen. What […]
If you read our terms of service and acceptable use policy, you already know what I’m about to type. However I recently had a potential customer argue me saying we didn’t have this in our agreements (we do), so I figured I’d make a blog post about it to have everything in one place :). […]
We often get asked about what package potential customers should go with if they need hosting for multiple websites. While our Basic Plus and Basic Business package allow the ability to host unlimited domains, you should only use these for your own internal sites. If you have clients or other websites in multiple niches, the […]
Each season we run specials on our hosting packages for new customers. Since I came online in 1998 summer time has been the slowest month for web hosting because a lot of people are enjoying their time outdoors / on vacation hence not working on their website. I can personally vouch for this, the last […]
