If you are in the initial stages of having a website or blog created, or you are looking for new hosting, choose your new service carefully. One appealing factor of going with a small hosting company is the personal service you are assured to receive. The problem with going with a small company is that many do not allow you to have access to your own website - meaning any changes or updates must go through that company. This can present a challenge if you need work done and your host has closed down for three weeks over the holidays. Or if you didn’t purchase a big enough package and they only promise your changes will be made within 3-5 business days.
Even if you are capable of doing your own maintenance tasks, or you are working with a VA or other web designer, you are still at the mercy of your hosting company.
I recommend that you choose a hosting company where you have full-time access to your website or blog. There are many good, reputable hosting companies that will not hold your website hostage. GoDaddy is popular, as is Hostmonster and my favorite, Bluehost.
I’ve had three clients recently who had trouble with these ‘personal’ web hosts. Interestingly, two of them were with the same company. These boutique hosting companies may be fine if you will be setting up your website and leaving it alone. However if you plan on even a moderate amount of Internet marketing, you need to consider how easy it will be to access your site for updates.
Hi there!
I’d like to invite you to a free teleconference happening tomorrow, Thursday, Feb 7, hosted by my good friend Michael Ehlert. You don’t even have to register - just show up if you’re interested!
We received many great questions about last week’s presentation and the Rev Up Workshop, so I am going to dedicate tomorrow afternoon to answering the questions received, any new questions as well as going under the hood of the Rev Up Your Web Business Workshop.
This will help you decide if it is right for you at this time before we start next week. I’ll be sure to give you enough great information to get started on your own too!

We have been using (and I love) Basecamp, by 37signals. We also use their Highrise for a contact manager. And I use Backpack by the same company.
There is a great little note taking product I couldn’t live without, EverNote. (Does anyone see where this is going?)
The problem is, all of my business information is scattered among several different systems and my team is only able to access bits and pieces at any one time, so we’ve been researching some all-inclusive project management software.
FileMakerPro is in the running, but it seems really bulky and not intuitive. Veetro looks incredibly promising and it’s web-based. We do need something robust, to handle many different aspects of the business.
What project management software would you recommend and why do you think it’s great?
