HostDime's Data Center Blog

On Wednesday, April 13th, 2011 HostDime presented a workshop at the University of Central Florida (UCF). There were about twenty students in attendance. The workshop covered the importance of establishing an online presence and how the students in a specific major might do so. We also gave the students a free small web hosting account and a domain name.

There are hundreds of social media sites already and every day we get more. They stay in business because apparently for every social media web site there are at least a couple thousand people willing to log in on a daily basis. For Facebook that’s well in to the hundreds of millions. Well get ready for one more.

The HostDime team is sponsoring and preparing their next exhibition at the Parallels Summit 2011 which takes place from February 22nd – 24th at the Gaylord Palm’s Convention Center centrally located in Orlando, Florida.

If you, or your application/enterprise, have outgrown the capabilities of a shared hosting environment, you might be well suited for HDVPS unmanaged Linux VPS Hosting, a wholly-owned subsidiary of HostDime.com.

Choosing the best hosting platform for your website(s) can be very challenging and confusing. In order not to be mislead, you will first need to outline the future plan of your website(s) for the upcoming year. If you are planning on creating a website(s) that will grow in the future (or you plan on running a huge database with heavy web traffic), it would be wise to choose a Web Host that contains the four different hosting services in case you need to upgrade your processing power, memory capacity, disk storage or security features.

The four types of hosting platforms consist of Shared Web Hosting, Reseller Hosting, VPS Hosting Solutions and Dedicated Server Solutions. We will analyze each one of these hosting services and clarify which platform is compatible with your needs.

Web Traffic is one of the strongest indication of how successful your online business is running. Without visitors, your company has no one to sell products or services to! Companies spend thousands of dollars paying for advertising agencies, the ‘middle-man’, to cover their marketing strategies. However, today’s digital world has completely shifted the responsibilities of promoting to the business owners, and excluded the entire middle process.

Will it cost you more money?

Choosing your marketing strategy online is one of the most vital elements in exposing your brand, product or even service to your target market. In fact, according to Nielsen’s, “member communities” are now used by more than 67 percent of the global online population.

In today’s booming social network environment, it is necessary for businesses to be more resourceful with their time, and even more effective with what and whom they connect with. There are two specific types of “social networkers” online, the posters and the seekers. It is mandatory for your business, the poster, to post information, resources, tips and offers on a daily basis for your customers, the seekers.

Sounds pretty simple, right?
