Offer: web hosting and email

[TekWarren]

This isn't a herp but could possibly be considered a herp related supply

I was updating my website and decided to add an offer to all my fellow reptile enthusiasts:

Web hosting/Email

This is a special offer for your reptile related website!

Are you a reptile lover or a private breeder looking to establish a presence on web? I can help! I am offering web site hosting AND email for the special low price of $60 per year!

This price includes the purchase of a domain name of your choice (depending on availability) for one year, domain name and web space setup on my server, and up to 5 email addresses.

Example of domain name (my own): www.WarrenReptiles.com

Example of Email address (my own): Heath@WarrenReptiles.com

This price is half what I normally charge for web hosting which is $10/month ($120/yr) I am also waving the initial setup fee of $40!

Don't need or want a website but want personalized Email? No problem: $25/yr includes purchase of domain name and 2 addresses.

Details:

This is a personally owned/operated webserver built, configured, and maintained by me.

Server is currently kept at a local internet service provider's data center which I have easy access to (I was a previous employee and live right down the road).

Currently no bandwidth restrictions and unlimited ammount of data transfer. (no restrictions such as per month traffic limits).

Currently no restrictions on web space...however this will be monitored within reason, and is subject to change.

Email is available via webmail at your domain (example: mail.warrenreptiles.com)

Spam filters in place for email services, spam/junk mail deposited in seperate folder for you to view before deleting, filters constantly updated.

*This offer is intended for reptile enthusiasts, "small" time breeders, and those not requiring a large elaborate website. Please contact me via email if you are interested, have any questions, or want to know if this offer will fit your needs. This offer does not include website design.

Just wanted give an update to this open offer. ddbjdealer or Ken of blackjackpythons was the first take this offer and can give a personal account of the good and bad thus far with his setup with me. Also MedusasOwl was just setup and I look forward to her new site with the wonderfull artwork she is doing.

If there are any questions please feel free to email, PM, or IM!

Sounds like a great deal Heath. Now if Mike and I could only come up with a definite name (and no we aren't going with Franchino anything because everyone pronounces Franchino as fran-chee-no instead of fran-key-no and it drives me nuts and that's a real short drive lately lol)

[iceman25]

Franchino as fran-chee-no instead of fran-key-no

Guilty as charged, lol. Sounds like a NY "organized" family

[MedusasOwl]

So far so good! I've got the bare bones of the site set up already and added a link in my sig, not much in the way of pics or anything yet but working on it! Basically just an index and links page so far, nowhere near the levels of cool Ken's site is at but all in good time. /(^v^)\

Thanks, TekWarren!!

EDIT: Oh, and taking up a few pages of notebook paper with brainstorming may help Jo, that's how I finally came up with mine which couldn't suit me better. I wrote down everything I could think of related to the subject as well as a bunch of things that just interested me and scribbled down a good few dozen combinations. You'd be surprised how much brainstorming I did before coming up with something as simple as Blue Gorgon

[TekWarren]

ah...to choose that domain name. That can be the most fun, frustrating, time consuming part of the whole process! I can add as many domain names as you like and point them to your main site with only the charge of added domain name itself for those of you who can't decide or don't want your future names taken.

[frankykeno]

LOL Raj! Hmmm maybe I could advertise our future snakes with "a price you CAN'T refuse"???? (somehow marketing a snake as "buy this or ya sleep with da fishes" might not be a top notch marketing strategy though! )

Hey folks just wanted to kindly reiterate that I simply don't have time to build websites as much I would like to. I also don't have the design skill that many others do. My background is in hardware, server administration, and networking. A few of you have asked about building a site for you as well as hosting and I hate to turn anyone away but I don't want to make promises I can't keep or build something that just won't be up to your liking. I'm sure there are others here who would work with you on designing...just have to ask.


Offer still open, its been a slow but steady trickle so if I keep getting people I'll keep the offer for reptile related sites open until it looks like there is no more interest.

Thanks!
