Happiness. Now guaranteed.
March 18, 2010

Hi there,

From today, we will be implementing a 15-day money back guarantee. This policy reflects a change from our policy of refusing the vast majority of refund requests.

We think that by offering a refund policy to prospective customers, we can highlight our belief that the service we provide is outstanding.

There are a couple of caveats to our policy:

- It does not apply to domain name registrations, renewals or transfers. This is simply down to how the domain name system works; we cannot unfortunately get a refund from our suppliers.
- You have 15 clear days (a clear day means a whole day - thus, starting the day after you sign-up) from your first payment for a particular is received, to submit a refund request. It doesn’t matter when we process your request, as long as we receive it within 15 days.
- This policy doesn’t overrule our current internal policy: we are happy to provision a refund at any stage, where we feel that we have gone against our company values, or where we haven’t applied our Terms of Service.

The next couple of months at Speed Hosting have one theme: change. We have made several changes to the way we operate even in the last couple of weeks. We have redeveloped our domain pricing policy, and made a couple of changes to our website. Our live support is online more often - and today, we are implementing a refund policy.

We work very hard to ensure that we’re doing the best we can - but this is an ongoing strategy. We require your feedback to ensure that we’re going in the right direction, so as always, if you have feedback (good or bad) e-mail me personally: stephen@speedtechnologies.co.uk.

So - stay tuned. There is more to come from us here at Speed Hosting.

New domain pricing: £5.49/year
March 15, 2010

Hi there,

We work hard to ensure that our customers get the best possible pricing - and today, we’re updating the prices of our domain name registration service.

Effective immediately, .com, .net, .org, .info, .name and .biz TLDs are priced at just £5.49/year. This pricing is highly competitive, and here’s a comparison with a few competitors:

Our .com price: £5.49/year

123-reg.co.uk: £9.99/year

1and1.co.uk: £8.99/year (current deal: £5.99/first year)

Namecheap.com: £6.44/year (at current exchange rate)

We hope that our customers, both present and future, will enjoy these new prices.

Many thanks,

Stephen

Welcome to Our Blog
August 3, 2009

Hi there!

First of all, welcome to our new blog. We’ve been planning some changes to our website for quite some time, and this post marks the beginning of several changes that we’re going to be introducing over the next few weeks - but you’ll hear more about them soon.

Secondly, I’ll take this opportunity to introduce myself; I’m Stephen, the Operations Director here at Speed Hosting, and if you’ve contacted our support, you might have been replied to by me. On the whole, I’m responsible for making sure that our customers are pleased with what we do, and so, we want to make sure that everyone is as up-to-date with the company as is possible. We used to send e-mails to announce new products or changes to our service, but that has become largely ineffective. We’ll be sending our quarterly newsletters from now on, for those who don’t read the blog.

We’ll be using the blog for more than service updates and product announcements; we’ll regularly be posting small editorials, on subjects surrounding the web hosting industry. We’ll also be using it to introduce the rest of the team here at Speed Hosting; and hopefully you’ll get to know us a bit better.

We’ve also got a few other ways you can connect with us, both on Facebook and on Twitter. You should add us to both of these services if you can: we’ll be running a couple of contests and promotions that will use these services specifically.

So, again, welcome to our blog. This is the start of several new launches and refreshes happening here at Speed Hosting, and you’ll hear about them here first.

Many thanks,

Stephen

Operations Director
