No more reselling

No more 3 am phone calls

If you’re running a web hosting server with under 100 clients, then it’s unlikely that you have the economies of scale to justify employing 24-hour tech support staff.
So, sooner or later you’re going to be woken up by the dreaded 3 am phone call from a client complaining that their website is down – and demanding that you spend hours fixing it now (instead of sleeping)!

With Anchor, you can forget about the 3am calls because we constantly monitor our network, have an outage response time which is just minutes, and even provide tech support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for our dedicated hosting clients!

So if a server ever crashes at 3am, it will never wake you up. We handle it!

No wasted time on things that don’t make money

Let’s face it – there’s no money in domain names.

You might be able to make $20 or $30 dollars per domain name for your client’s websites – but once you’ve spent the time registering the domain name, setting up the DNS records, and making sure clients don’t let their domain names expire…

…You end up giving away more than what you make!

It’s even worse when your clients pick some cheapskate $8.99 registrar, and then expect you to reassign their domain name, or get their fiddly DNS settings working.
As an Anchor Partner, we handle this for you.

You’ll Never Receive Another Tech Support Call

Sure, the 3am phone call are the ones which really ‘hurt’, but it’s the ongoing tech support headaches which take up your time, and take you away from your core business (the tasks which make you the most amount of money).

When it comes to tech support, this is everything from “my web-site seems to be running slow”, to setting up new e-mail accounts, to patiently guiding someone through setting up their POP3 and SMTP settings in their e-mail client.

When you’re providing web-hosting, clients expect you to provide tech support for free…but the reality is, the time you spend providing tech support for free takes away from your ability to make money in your core business… Whether that’s web development, graphic design, application development – whatever it is that you do best.

But at Anchor, our core business is web-hosting – so tech support is part of our core business. We have the economies of scale to provide 24 hour tech support, 7 days a week – which means you don’t have to eat into the time which makes you the most amount of money.

You’ll Never Have To Maintain Or Upgrade Your Hosting Box Again

It’s a fact of life if you’re running your own hosting box – there’s no escaping maintenance and upgrades.

For the life of the box, you need to perform regular maintenance to ensure the performance of the box doesn’t deteriorate over time.

On top of this, you’ve got a whole list of regular software updates (mail server upgrades, anti virus, firewall, bug patches, OS security updates). Plus you need to perform regular hardware updates to keep the box up to standard, and improve its performance as you bring on more clients. This means scheduling in some “down time” to take the box offline, backing up your clients sites, buying the parts, installing drivers, performing the upgrades yourself (or paying someone else onsite to do it for you), bringing your box online, then testing and monitoring the new hardware to make sure it does the job!

You don’t need to worry about any of this, because Anchor handles all this for you.

And You’ll Never Have To Chase Up Another Unpaid Invoice

Unfortunately, small hosting clients seem to take up most of your time – and bring in the least amount of money.

A business owner will pay a big invoice well within payment terms – but when they receive an invoice for a few months’ web-hosting they just seem to sit on it forever because it’s “just a little bill – it can wait”.

Sure, part of running a business is chasing up unpaid invoices – but how much is your time worth? And how much of it are you spending chasing up $50 hosting invoices.
Is this the most profitable use of your time?

As an Anchor Partner, your clients become our clients too – we do all the work when it comes to chasing unpaid invoices.
Then at the end of each quarter, we transfer your hosting commissions into your bank account, and send you an e-mail to let you know how much you have received.
