Hi,
Occasionally I get non-technical people saying things to me like:
You know about computers. I want a web site. Who should I talk
to?
Clearly these people aren't in the market for a VPS. :) And the
hosting companies that I do use don't tend to offer low end shared
hosting either, so I can't give personal recommendations.
Of course, something like Squarespace is most likely going to be a
better fit for people making these types of enquiries, but it might
be nice if I could mention some companies that host with BitFolk.
So, if you sell shared web hosting running off of BitFolk
infrastructure could you message me off-list and next time I'm
asked I'll point them in your direction.
on the point of extra services:
I wouldn't mind if you offer tls certificates for the servers.
I used to run my own CA and add the CA to the clients, but sadly that
seems to be no longer an option for iPhone/Android (nor do I want the
hassle).
I find iPhones in particular are a pain to deal with unless it's signed
by a CA apple likes. (and google chrome seems to go in the same
direction).
Since you already have your customers authenticated it should be fairly
straightforward to add a certificate-request signing services, right?
;)
