Going Global with dallasdahms.net

May 15, 2008 in Hosting

I finally have my international website hosting company up and running in the form of dallasdahms.net.

This new website venture is 100% owned by myself and caters for a global market. Already I have clients in Europe, the United States and Australia who are happily hosting their websites on my servers and enjoying not only very reasonable rates, but also the best kind of website hosting you can get. It’s fast, easy to use and it can do just about ANYTHING you need online (blogs, e-commerce, forums, etc).

If you are a South African person or business, buying hosting from me will make what you’re getting locally look positively backwards by comparison. I have had a look at the prices being touted by some very big names in the hosting game and they are ripping SA consumers off like you wouldn’t believe. I have heard of companies paying over R400 a month to host the most basic of HTML sites. That’s just plain silly.

With me you get one invoice, once a year.

Still just R700 a year for any website, regardless of how advanced it is, including a free international domain name.

Why pay a bloated monthly rate to some amorphous corporate entity for crippled hosting, when you can pay just once a year and save a bundle (and maybe a WASP too)?

The “Pimp My Website” Special Offer!

Like this website? It’s made with WordPress and some CSS spit ‘n polish that I added to a free theme found in the WordPress themes site here.

If you see a theme you like in there, I can have your very own WordPress powered website up and running within 5 days of receiving R1,000 from you. Included in the R1,000 is:

  • the setup cost of the site (including up to 5 WP themes of your own choice)
  • your new domain name
  • up to 5 email accounts on your domain name
  • 12 months of pre-paid hosting
  • 500MB of disk space
  • 1GB bandwidth (traffic) per month

The second year you’ll pay a R700 renewal fee. I couldn’t be bothered with monthly debit orders, so I charge half the going rate for the full year in one upfront payment.

You can also pimp out your WP site with hundreds of very cool sidebar widgets or plug-ins that will put e-commerce, mp3 and video players, plus cool photo galleries right into your hands in a couple of clicks. I’ll show you how.

So what’s the difference between this and a regular website I would do? Well, with this deal you basically create your own website using the tools provided within WP. You create your own pages, set up your own galleries and pretty much put your own content where it needs to go. You are in complete control of your own site and can change things on your own. If you learn a bit of CSS and HTML you will also be able to tweak your themes to suite your own needs, things like changing colours and sizes of fonts, background graphics, layout, etc.

This is a pretty sweet deal.
