A Dedicated Server Saved My Business

I talk about business often, partially because I used to run an online business. There are many mistakes to be made when running a business on your own... There are also preventative measures that you can take to prevent any big trouble from happening. For online businesses, one of these measures is to purchase a Dedicated Server from a proper company. My site crashed once, and my business along with it, at a terrible time. I had overloaded my site and overused my memory, which caused the crash. Without my dedicated server company, I would have missed out on a huge opportunity and surely many customers as well.

 

I'm not a genius when it comes to running websites so when my site crashed, I had no idea what to do. It was the middle of the night and I had just been sprucing the site up for a scheduled visit from possible business partners across the globe. Where they were, it was daytime! I knew that they were going to be looking over my site for possible funding and for my site to be down when they go to look at it, that would have killed my chances.

 

Luckily, my dedicated server company was so dependable. When I called at one in the morning, they worked with me to get my site back up and running in no time. It was truly amazing as I didn't even expect them to be available at that time of night. The man I talked to explained their was a problem with my site's memory limit and quickly helped me fix it. My site was ready and running when my business partners were viewing it.

 

My business partners were impressed with my site and opened up to further discussion of possible funding. Without my dedicated server company, I don't know what I would have done. I can be pretty sure that I would have lost that client, though, as my site being down was just unprofessional. It was my fault, for overusing my memory, but I was so lucky that my dedicated server provider helped me out. A crashed website is not good for business!
