The Easiest Way to Get a Free SSL Certificate
The hour for SSL is nigh. Several customers have contacted us, worried about the new security warnings displaying in Chrome when they pull up their website with its URL that starts out with an http. This warning doesn’t mean your site has been hacked; it just means that you don’t have an SSL certificate set up for your website and your URL does not display as https. If you’re running a blog or other website for fun, you may not want to pay the approximately $60 per year that most hosting providers charge for an SSL certificate. Well, we have got some good news for you! You can, in fact, get a free SSL certificate… and it’s not that hard.
Advice for Nonprofit Websites
This year more than ever, we’ve worked on a number of web marketing projects for non-profits. And this week, we watched a campaign for a local Texas organization, RAICES, go viral on Facebook, raising well over $20 million in about two weeks. If you’ve got your 501(c)(3) set up and you are ready to start thinking about a website and online fundraising, here is our advice for getting started.
Remote Support with I.T. Roadmap: AeroAdmin
Last week, we quietly added a button to our Tech Support page. After years of using TeamViewer and Logmein products for remote support, we have switched to a new-to-us product called AeroAdmin. While we love offering remote support, we didn’t love the process of walking people through installing our remote support tools. And while Logmein is a great product that has gotten much easier to use in the past year or two, we don’t love the pricing for it—now over $100 per month. After all, the lower our cost for support tools, the less it costs you too. AeroAdmin is only $69.90 per seat per year, and it allows us to establish remote access to an unlimited number of computers.
