ISSUE 41 /// FEBRUARY 2005
Dear Valued Customer,
When it comes to the Internet, people expect immediate feedback and
instant access to a variety of information. That’s why it’s
no surprise that blogs have taken online communication by storm. While
they started out as virtual soapboxes for enthusiastic types looking
to express their opinions, blogs have morphed into a powerful tool
for small business’s marketing campaigns. See how using Hostway’s
new SiteBlog makes it quick and easy for you to join the blogging
community and get your voice out there.
Enjoy!

“As my Web site, Beachcalifornia.com grew during the past several
years, Hostway's plans did not provide the needed bandwidth to help
the site grow. A sales representative at Hostway spoke with her manager
and set up a customized program just for me.
Recently, Hostway added increased bandwidth, file sums and storage
size at an incredibly low price to their plans. I was able to save
money by switching to the new plans, but am grateful for Hostway's
awesome professionalism and assistance in listening to my needs
and helping me on an individual basis.
Because I am able to count on Hostway for hosting reliability,
price and great customer service, I use this company exclusively
for 10 Web sites I maintain. Thank you Hostway!”

Smart Tip: Minimize Hold Times
While it’s never fun to be put on hold when you are
having support issues, there are several ways to make sure the time
you do spend waiting isn’t wasted. By keeping the following
in mind, you can make sure that you make the most of idle time and
get the best support possible.
Expedite the support process, by having your account information,
such as your Domain Name, Customer ID, and SiteControl password on
hand before dialing.
If you already have a trouble ticket number for an open issue, have
that number available to save lookup and explanation time.
Help yourself by using valuable online resources available in SiteControl.
SiteControl offers a thorough User’s Manual and Self-Help Guide
that provides instant answers to common problems.
Know your patience is greatly appreciated. We work hard to resolve
all customer issues with speed, accuracy and professionalism. We value
