Backup Hosting
We know firsthand from past experiences that when your web host goes down for more than just a few minutes, it sucks. In one day alone, we lost potentially hundreds of dollars and weren't able to provide our software to ten thousand interested people. On a separate occasion, we had over 2,500 concurrent viewers. And then we crashed. This site's reputation took a serious hit, and we lost a significant amount of revenue, as well as a potential partner and investor.
So we understand the absolute need of 100% uptime. Also, think about it -- as the Internet becomes a more important medium, the importance and necessity of keeping your web presence online simultaneously grows.
We propose to help remedy some of the situations that we've experienced and that others have, and continue to, experience through our backup hosting service.
How does it work?
Instead of pointing your domain/s to your day-to-day host's name servers, point them to ours (ns1.serveblast.com and ns2.serveblast.com) and we'll redirect to your day-to-day host's. On the chance that they go down for more than 5 minutes, we will instantly cut that redirection, expand the most recent backup of your site (a limited version of our Automatic Backup service is included) to one of our high-capacity servers, and start hosting you until you feel confident that your day-to-day host is stable again.
While pricing hasn't been finalized, we think it'll be pretty cheap.
