Greetings: The latest scourge of the internet seems to be hijacked email accounts. This is especially true of the free email accounts from hotmail, yahoo, and gmail. Jeremiah, our tech who runs the service bench, tells me that he has had to reclaim several accounts from the cyberpunks this past month. But what is even more disturbing is that there are businesses using these free email services as their main point of contact.

Now I will be the first to admit that I'm not fashion conscience. I also believe in shopping on the bargain racks. I like to bag a good deal just as much as the next guy and free is appealing. But I also believe that my business needs to look legitimate and that doesn't happen when I use a hotmail, yahoo or gmail account as my primary business address.

Why? Because the majority of phishing attacks and internet fraud cases involve some sort of free email account. And these free accounts are impossible to trace (without a court order). In my opinion, if you are using a free email account to represent your company, you are either shady, lazy, or cheap! Is that the image you want? Didn't think so.

So I'm on a quest. I would like to convert all businesses who are using free accounts for email into legitimate accounts. For the month of May, I am offering to assist you with domain name registration and creation of five email accounts for just $25. After the first month, you pay just $10 per month to keep the accounts live. Need more than five email accounts? No problem, each additional account is just $2 per month. Would you like a website with that? We will create a basic site, up to three pages, for $99. Hosting the site is only $5 per month. What are you waiting for? Stop by or call us today.
