Host your indie business website with Biznik
It’s official: Biznik has acquired the hosting operations of Static Factory Media. Effective immediately, we are now offering rock-solid web and blog hosting to our members at a great price.
Why are we now in the hosting business? It’s part of our strategy to create a truly valuable service for indie business people. And in order to make that happen, we need income. Up until a couple weeks ago, Biznik was totally free. And basic membership will always be free. But we’re on a mission to add valuable services and additional features to Biznik that will make you WANT to support us, and this is one of them. It’s kind of a radical business model, offering our core service – the indie business social network – for free. But then, you wouldn’t expect anything less than radical from Biznik, would you?
Here’s why we think you’ll want to host with Biznik:
- Successful Track Record. We’ve inherited a totally solid and successful service from Static Factory, with many happy customers.
- You’re In Control. The hosting tools we give you put you squarely in control of your own account – everything from setting up email accounts, to managing mailing lists, databases – you name it, you control it.
- Price. Yes, you can find cheaper hosting. But ours is very competitively priced starting at $12/month. AND you get me on the phone when you need support. Priceless!
- Free WordPress Installation. With every account, we’ll install the latest version of WordPress for you, free.
- Open Source. Additional open source software can be installed on your account quickly and at no extra charge. Here’s the list of more than 40 applications that are currently available.
- Reliable. We’re moving the Static Factory servers to our secure collocation facility in Mill Creek this evening, which means they’ll be on a blazingly fast connection, with even greater uptime.
- We know indie business. Biznik understands the needs of independent business people and we’ll be adding even more features as time goes by.
- Did I mention that you get my cell phone number for tech support?
I know that moving your domain can be a pain, but most transfers are simple, and don’t result in any down time or lost email. I’ll help you make it as painless as possible.
