New York Offices Closed – 10/29/12

0

COMMENTS

Our NY Based offices will be closed Monday, October 29, 2012, due to Hurricane Sandy.  Our sales & billing will have limited coverage via support tickets – live chat will not be available.

All server management, server monitoring & outsourced support services will continue to function, with staff members working remotely from home, and some of our US based workload being shifted over to our UK staff. Clients with dedicated staff members out of New York will be contacted directly with more information related to backup coverage.

Due to the large potential of flooding and power loss for our NY based staff, response times to support tickets may be higher than normal.  If possible, please hold non-essential or non-emergency support tickets for later in the week to help keep the support queues low.

Any important updates will be posted to our blog, twitter, and client area. To all of our valued customers in the path of Hurricane Sandy, stay safe.

OpenSSH Security Best Practices

0

COMMENTS

Secure Shell (SSH) provides us with command interface for secure data communication. Effectively, it allows you to remotely manage your server as if you were standing right in front of the physical machine. We use SSH because of the additional layers of protection and encryption it adds when transmitting data over the internet.

While SSH is by default a lot more secure than other protocols such as FTP, there are some configuration changes that can be made to make it even more secure. Changing some widely known defaults will help ensure only you and people you authorize have access to the root of your servers.

Emergency Server Support

24/7 Emergency Server Administrator Service

It’s no fun to get those frantic 3AM phone calls from upset clients, because instead of their website they’re getting some ugly **SERVICE FAILED** message. Your cell phone, office phone, emails, twitter are all going crazy. You ring up your datacenter only to find they don’t provide 24/7 support or are an unmanaged provider. This is exactly the problem our service fixes – 24 hours a day, 7 days a week! Read More

The Dirty “O” Word – Outsourcing Support

0

COMMENTS

Hiding The Use Of Outsourcing

For our recent redesign, we needed to reach out to some of our clients for our testimonial section. Many were pleased to provide, but several were very hesitant. This was a reply to a request from a great client of ours:

“We’re very happy with your services, but to be honest we really do no want to provide a testimonial. We don’t want our customers to know we’re outsourcing our support.”

This was not unexpected though. We are very used to our clients not wanting to associate their business with…The Dirty Outsourcing Word. We’re perfectly fine with providing support behind the scenes. However, we wanted to take a moment to review some of the stigmas with outsourcing. Read More

SeeksAdmin Main Page Over The Years

It has been a long journey to this day. A day where we can take a step back and look our website – a reflection of our company’s service, culture, and personality – and say wow. Take a quick look at the progression of our website over the years. Each step a bit better that the former.

Now don’t laugh at us, heh we’re not web designers. Some of these might be scary, but we’re not ashamed of where we came from. Check them out:

Blogging With Purpose

0

COMMENTS

“Hey, everyone else blogs so we should do.”

This is most likely the train of thought behind many of the bloggers you find on a typical company blog. Alright, alright, I agree – we’re guilty of the same. The SeeksAdmin blog has pretty much been dead web space, where the management team would come occasionally rant here and there about the most random things.

We’d like to be a little more helpful here in this space – for both our valued clients and the random visitor looking for assistance in a wide range of areas. So herein we’re committed to blogging with purpose! Bare with us as we setup proper categories to properly sort our server administration guides, and other resources. The great guys over at Vissol (review soon to come) have finished our design. After we finish up with that, we’ll be right here blogging away with purpose – helping you!

Directadmin Server Migration Guide

There are millions of articles out there about cPanel server migrations, even about Plesk migrations, however (as far as I know) there is not actually that much about Directadmin server migrations. While migrating a single account from a directadmin server is a relatively simple process, transferring a whole server on the other hand is not so easy and requires you to do some tricky things. This article plans to lay out the basics of the migration process which will help you transfer your websites using directadmin.
