coreix

One of my New Year’s resolutions was to keep my blog up to date, and this last week was the first time I’ve been a bit slack. But I have an excuse or two!

Number one was the arrival of my second son, Thomas. Ok, so it stopped me posting to the blog for a week or so, but think of the photo opportunities he will create! Unlike last time I had my camera with me at the hospital and I’ll set a page up soon to show what a cute little chap he is.

Secondly my blog was featured on the Redweb Facebook page. Check it out – it’s a fantastic example of how social networking can be used to benefit your business. Redweb have a very talented design team and I’m proud to work with them. My blog is featured on the page, and the extra traffic made the old virtual private server creak a bit.

So I’ve moved up in the World – a dedicated server from Coreix. I know there are cheap servers to be had in the US, but I’ve got a UK domain name and I’d like to be hosted in this country if possible. Coreix have very keen prices, from basic Linux servers all the way through to full managed hosting. Service so far is very good (my new server was up within three hours, and I ordered at midnight!) and no outages.

Right, quick updates over, more news to follow soon…
