    Hey @dustinc

    Can we upgrade a VPS to next plan, if we need it in future? If thats possible, how much time it will take for the process to complete. I mean expected downtime ..

    Hi @xpress7 -- good question! Yes, it is definitely possible to upgrade to the next plan up (within the same promotional group) - just open a sales ticket when you're ready, and we'll help process the upgrade.

    Expected downtime is less than a minute for upgrades (only a quick reboot is required).

    Thanks dustinc. What do you mean by 'within the same promotional group?'

    Hi @xpress7 -- happy to help clarify! If for example you ordered a promotional product from one of our other promo's months/years back, and today want to upgrade that existing VPS to a New Year 2022 package, then that is not possible as we do not allow promotional hopping. However you are welcome to place a new order for a New Year 2022 package for expansion purposes.

    However, for instance, if you ordered a New Year 1 GB KVM VPS package, and wanted to upgrade to the New Year 3 GB KVM VPS package down the road - then that is totally possible (since these two products are in the same promotional group). Either way, if you're just unsure and want us to take a personalized look at your account and go over some upgrade options for you - feel free to open a sales ticket or e-mail me directly at: [email protected] :)

    Fair enough. Thanks for the detailed explanation 👍

    No worries 👊

    @BarkingIron nice score on a backpack. Looks like I missed the hype train lol

    Holidays are hard. How do you find the time @dustinc ? :D

    Good eye :) It’s not always easy, but it’s all about commitment. I’m a strong believer in being all in, especially when it comes to business.

    Sorry for all the late, clustered replies. I'm trying to find time throughout the day to join in the conversation in between spending time with relatives, but it usually ends up being at the beginning of the day or at the end of the night.

    I hope everyone is doing well, having a happy New Year, and enjoying themselves :)

    Happy New Year!

    I'm kinda doing the same and have never really done forum stuff on mobile but it feels rude to just bust out the laptop when guests/family are around. Not as easy to use mobile but it feels less rude lol

    I have unfortunately been forced to use mobile only for the last week. It's awful!

    As far as I can tell, the giveaway in this discussion is ongoing until January 17th, so I'd be pretty surprised if @dustinc didn't squeeze in a few more random giveaways before then ;)

    @adanforest said:

    Hi @adanforest -- great catch! In regards to domains, we're not a direct domain registrar ourselves (and not many are) - when it comes to domains, we're a value added reseller. So this is based on our cost plus transaction fees (the pricing we charge for domains has proven to be a sweet spot for us). Today we target a lot of local businesses who are happy to pay our domain registration rates while benefitting from our service/support. For those who are cost conscious for domain registration, most commonly we find that they go directly to a domain registrar for that, and possibly even seek limited time promotions from these domain registrars from time to time. While on the other hand, some clients also find value in keeping everything under one roof/platform, and are happy to register the domain through us.

    In addition, it should be said that domain registrars frequently raise their pricing (sometimes even annually). Therefore, barely making anything or trying to maintain pass-thru pricing would not look good for us, as we'd then have to extend those increases to our customers. As such, the domain pricing that we have is our sweet spot where our customers (especially local ones) want things up and running without having to be bothered with increases and things of that nature. Since the beginning of our business, we have yet to increase pricing on any existing customers/existing services. That's our goal as we understand the burden price increases puts on customers, so we try our best to maintain pricing for existing services and absorb whatever we can :)

    This right here is a huge one in keeping customers happy. I mean huge.

    I've actually hurt my own business in the past by setting my initial price point too low and having to eat the cost for long time customers because I said here's the price and I stick to it. Changing it can make them lose trust, or even make them go elsewhere (even if "elsewhere" doesn't really save them money over the price increase). Stability is extremely important for a small business, especially early on.

    So @dustinc, I say to you, excellent explanation, and I personally think you have the right idea/plan for sustaining a business. Although, I am not a professional :tongue: just a freelance tech guy.

    I'm always much happier behind a keyboard, much faster than typing with my thumbs. Besides I miss all the good stuff on mobile unless I'm just staring at it lol

    Another benefit of being on my computer?
