hosting at prehistoric prices.

it’s been a while since our last post. but then again, we only post when we have something to say, and this time do we ever.

in light of the environmental impact our lives are taking on the planet, we think it’s high time business took some responsibility. we believe the focus should not just be on profiteering, but also about promoting ethical business and environmental concerns. words are both poetic and engaging, however action speaks volumes, and we’re ready to announce that we’ve shifted into gear: we don’t want to become extinct (again), so we’re offsetting our CO2 emissions, and donating 1% of our profits annually to preserve the natural environment.

does this mean prices are going up? no. does it mean you can drive your car more because your webhosting is neutral? no, and if you do, we’ll send a prehistoric carnivore to your home address.

so the nitty gritty details are, that we’ve had 49 trees planted by Greenfleet which in turn offsets the 12 tons of CO2 emissions our servers produce yearly. that’s equivalent to the yearly emissions of three average cars! we’ve also committed ourselves to One Percent for the Planet, an organisation rallying businesses to donate 1% of profits, to be distributed amongst non-profit organisations who work to ensure our species has a future, and avoids extinction.

so for all our existing customers, feel free to announce that your webhosting is carbon neutral and environmentally conscious. and if you want to (we dearly hope you do), consider also letting other people know about us, so we can continue to grow and put more of our funds into causes that make a difference.

and last but least, if you are a potential new customer, remember that webhosts are a dime a dozen, and then ask yourself whether those other eleven care enough to try and do something positive.
