The new website for Aquapax, built in WordPress, has been launched.
The website has a fresh new look (design adapted from concepts by David Paul Rosser), integrated blog, photo gallery, video, twitter feed and a growing page translation service inlcuded.
After waiting around for three days on a response about a small fix from a client’s (supposedly) green and friendly webhosting company – “We are extremely proud of our support and are available to help you at anytime” (not sure what they have against us then) – I asked around the web design community for some tried and tested, reputable, green hosting companies.
There’s great merit in choosing green suppliers for your business, web hosting included, but this is the second appaling “green” web hosting company I’ve had the mispleasure if wasting my time with. When customer support is so terrible you have to question how much is just greenwash, if they don’t care about their customers how can we trust how green they actually are?
Here’s a (growing) list of recommended green hosting companies:
Thanks to the webbie folk who recommended these.
Roweena Web Design websites are currently hosted, and will continue to be hosted, with Haisoft.net and Terranetwork as both provide great service and support. I am of course more than happy to discuss different options with clients who want to use green hosting.
I’ve had a busy start to the year both on my own client work and larger projects for a couple of great web agencies.
I’m now booking new projects in for March.
For the year ahead I’ll be pushing the latest techniques for making websites ipad and iphone compatible so will be welcoming anyone who is excited about seeing the web on these devices!
