Happy New Year!

Hopefully we will all have a successful 2008.

We expanded our server network in December and now have IP addresses available in Texas.  By mid year we will be branching our network into California.  This is helpful if you are using a multiple-domain strategy to optimize your site for the search engines.  Here are a few things to consider if you are thinking about a multiple-domain strategy.

  • By setting up the multiple domains on a different server in another area of the country (or world) will give you better credibility in the eyes of major search engines.
  • Speak to your Design and SEO (Search Engine Optimization) firm before just copying your existing website files and putting them on another server.  Duplicate content is not looked highly upon by the search engines.  This could get your domain banned from the index.  If you do not have a firm helping you with you can visit http://www.grantcom.us and they can help you set up a strategy.
We all have experienced spam and we dislike it as much as you.  It clogs up our mail queue and somtimes holds up emails getting to your inbox.  We have installed a blacklist filter to stop domain names and IP addresses that are known spammers.  Unfortunately it does not stop all spam since the bad guys are always moving to differernt IP addresses and getting new domains. 
 
We also have Spamassassin software available for you to use on your mail accounts.  You can set a spam score setting through your control panel.  The lower the score number the less spam you will receive.  The only issue with setting a low score is the risk of losing legit emails especially any newsletters you signed up for. 
 
You may also want to login to your webmail account and set up your blacklist.  As spam arrives you can immediately put them on the list to be rejected if it is sent again.  This needs to be an ongoing exercise to work best. 
 
We can help you lower your spam by doing a study of your incoming mail.  If this is a service you are interested in please email me for more details.
 
If you are sending out a mass email campaign to your customers or prospects here are some helpful hints not to be viewed as spam.
