It’s not cold, it’s not warm, but it’s in the middle. It’s also known as spring, when folks start to get out more… hiking, biking, laughing (outside); anything to do with being outside.
As it’s spring, we thought it would be a good time to give a discount in honor of this wonderful season, so we’ve done just that. We’re giving you 20% off any shared hosting order for the next month! (Truth be told, we’ve been running it since the first).
You will see it during the checkout process — 20% off! Check our plans and see if they fit into your action plans for spring. http://www.hostican.com/hosting/shared-hosting.php

After months and months of hard work, we’ve come up with a solution to increase I/O performance.
What does this mean? It means that the sites will load faster and face fewer CPU warning messages.
Anyone that has any experience with web hosting will say that I/O performance is key to getting the best possible experience on any shared hosting server. We’ve investigated the matter, and our system administrators have come up with several things we can do to increase our I/O performance, and lower the load even more on our servers.
Having added these new tweaks, there will be less customers facing the CPU issues, and greatly improved web site loading times.
I will keep you updated on more info, as we find out other neat ideas.

I got to say that our in-house development team has been working SUPER hard on some pretty neat and amazing things, which our shared customer scan expect to see in their cPanel before too long. These range from: Google AdWords vouchers to File Count graphs.
I don’t know the full ins and outs as yet. However, from what I’ve heard it’s going to be pretty amazing.
Keep your eyes peeled for more info; an update should come soon.

He’s the founder of Automattic and Lead Programmer of WordPress, and I’ve had the opportunity to get a chance to speak with Matt and hear his latest thoughts on the new upcoming version of WordPress version 2.5. Listen to his interview with me and the show’s host, Gene Steinberg, on http://www.techbroadcasting.com/
We also got more information from Matt directly on how important it is to make sure that all your plugins work and work well, as one plugin can cause mayhem in the WordPress platform.
All that and so much more, stay tuned!

Finally today, I got some time to check out the blog and to my shock and horror I found out that I haven’t posted in this blog for quite some time, so I thought it would be a perfect opportunity to do so.
We’ve been working on quite a few projects as of late, and this is one of the “excuses” why I’ve not had time to post on this blog. However, we’re making progress I’m pleased to report.
We’ve done a complete and extremely thorough examination of all our shared hosting servers, spending countless hours to optimize performance and equalize the resources that are given to each end-user, which has allowed the server to work more freely on shared hosting. We’re also currently exploring some advanced mail functions on our sandbox, and will update soon about how that goes.
Overall, great progress is being made, slowly but surely I’m glad to report. I will keep everyone updated. Keep reading. More is on the way!
