Webhosting: Why Price Shouldn’t Be The Deciding Factor

There are several variables to consider when deciding who to use to host a website.  If price is the only consideration, you may not know what problems to expect.

Who lives in your websites's neighborhoodMany companies will host pornographic and/or offensive websites. Hosting a website with a company that hosts pornographic websites would damage your reputation when this information is discovered. Other problems that occur include:
  • Mail server IP blacklisting because of spam
  • Server resources over-utilized because of pornographic traffic
  • Restoration of obscene content being added to your site by mistake
  • People correlating your company or organization with an webhost that serves offensive material.
Here is a list of webhosts that we strongly encourage to avoid or move your services from:
Hosting your website with a local webhost in Tucson that has integrity will allow you to avoid these problems.

The national directory of Christian businesses, the Christian Business Directory put a great deal of thought into who to use for their webhosting needs. They chose iRapture.com because they wanted the best Christian webhost.

Free Character and Word Counting Tool

When working on marketing projects and websites, I occasionally need to know the exact number of characters or words used. 

For example, a marketing piece may need to be 'up to 250 words' or a website's title tag should be 78-80 characters.  I couldn't find a good resource that did exactly what I wanted, so the iRapture.com development team built wordcount.us, a free character and word counting tool, to satisfy this need.

Check it out and try it. It is a free tool, so I hope you will use it and enjoy it.

Do you have a homepage where you keep all of your 'handy links that you visit regularly'?  I do and I set it as my homepage so I can have it handy everytime I use a web browser.  If you would like help making a personalized page like this, perhaps even at a custom domain, just let me know and I could help you set this up.   Then you could link to wordcount.us and other handy websites from that personalized page of links that you like and use..

Sincerely,

Jacob Barr, Website Designer at iRapture.com

Fair Tax

The Fair Tax has not been described honestly by the democrats and their advertisements.

Watch this video to see a good intro:



Gabriel Gifford's ad misrepresents what this tax and does not accurately describe the benefit of the fair tax.



We need understand what the fairtax is:

SEASON PASS TO THE GASLIGHT THEATRE: 6 Gaslight Theatre Tickets

I just sent out season tickets to the gaslight theatre (6 adult tickets) to those who are directing their state tax money to my daughter's tuition. (That I know about this year.)

Which doesn't cost them anything but a bit of extra time.

My company, iRapture.com, hosts thegaslighttheatre.com for 'trade' which is how I am able to give tickets to those designating their tax dollars to help pay for my daughter's tuition.

If you would like 6 Gaslight Theatre Tickets then please send me your contact info and I will send you a tax credit form to use... and then I will send you a season pass (which does not expire and is for 6 gaslight theatre tickets).

You can reply to this post if you are interested.

If you are already giving to another family, then you could give a portion to them and a portion to my daughters.. and if you do this, then I would gladly send you Gaslight Theatre tickets.

If you designated my daughters to get some of your state tax money this year and you don't get a season pass to the gaslight (this week), please contact me and I will get one in the mail to you asap. I really appreciate the financial help to get my daughters the best education possible (which is obviously at a christian school and not a public drain).

Sincerely,

Jacob Barr
