Greetings!
We truly hope you are doing well and getting the most out of your website! We are very excited today to be able to send this e-mail as we are announcing some fantastic new services and letting you in on some more additions coming soon.
First of all, we invite you to check out our new website located at www.toydrumhosting.com. From there you will be able to see all of our services and pricing, login to your cPanel, webmail, and billing account, request support, and view up to the minute news on our servers and known network issues. A lot of time has gone into this website and we hope to make a lot more general information available as time progresses. We are aware that there is some minor tweaking that needs to be done, and will be working around the clock until the site is perfected.
Second, and most exciting, is to announce are new Windows based offerings. If you use Microsoft Outlook or have a Blackberry you will want to pay attention to this. Toydrum Hosting, now offers Microsoft Exchange as well as Blackberry Exchange Licenses. Ever been out and wish you had access to a particular e-mail or contact that was on your home computer? With Microsoft Exchange, you Outlook box is synced to a server and accessible anywhere with an internet connection. This includes the synching of your e-mail, contacts, calendar, and task lists! Have a Blackberry? Get the additional BES License and any change you make on your Blackberry will be instantly made in your Microsoft Outlook account. Please see our website for more information and pricing details.
Now for what is coming soon:
· We will be bringing on an additional part-time sales/support associate late next week to help with support and ticket responses. He will also be contacting each of you to make sure you do not have any questions or issues with your services with us. In the meantime, if you do have outstanding issues or questions, please direct them to Support@toydrumhosting.com.
· In response to the unexpected downtime that occurred a few weeks ago, we have been looking at many alternatives to minimize downtime and data loss. We have a few solutions we are considering, all of which are costly and may include additional fees for those clients wanting to use them. These services will include:
o Self – Managed automatic back-ups - the client will be able to setup more backup points and have access to an offsite server to restore from the backups.
o Redundancy server – if the server that a client is hosting on has a service interruption, another server with identical information will automatically take over the DNS settings for 0 downtime.
If you would like information on any of these possible services or would like to discuss possible additional fees, please contact Ryan Courtade by e-mailing Ryan@toydrumhosting.com.
· Toydrum Hosting is working with a software developer to become a reseller of an application suite that will provide secure and flexible software for use on our hosting accounts. Fees will be involved, but the installation and integration will be done by Toydrum Hosting’s Web Development department.
We would lastly like to point out the Toydrum Hosting’s affiliate program. Just for signing up you receive a $5.00 credit on your hosting account and for every successful referral you make to Toydrum Hosting, you receive 10%. So if you referred 10 customers, each paying $100.00 a year, you would receive free hosting! We will give you the graphics and the affiliate link and all you have to do is put it on your website. Please e-mail Info@toydrumhosting.com if you are interested in our reseller program.
We hope everyone is doing well and having a good 2008, as always please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
All the Best,
Toydrum Hosting
