New storage configuration options now available for dedicated servers

Just a couple of weeks ago, we released a fully revamped line of dedicated servers on our platform .
Now you can offer your customers
powerful SSD- and HDD-based
dedicated hosting solutions at
competitive prices.
Most server configurations offer
expandable storage and now your
customers can easily configure the disk space capacity of their machine right at signup.

What are the storage upgrades about?
Each dedicated server comes pre-
configured with a specific storage
capacity, which is consistent with the chosen type of drive (SSD or HDD) and the Operating System in use.
Your customers will be able to make the following storage customizations:
1. Change the current storage type –if the given server configuration offers HDD storage and is upgradeable, your clients will be able to switch to SSDs (and vice versa), if necessary.
2. Upgrade the storage capacity
itself – if the given server setup offers expandable storage, your clients will be able to expand the default disk storage and/or order additional disks, depending on the capacity of the server setup at hand.
For instance, if a customer is interested in the Atom 1 package, they will be able to reconsider the default storage parameters of the plan (2×250 HDD) and choose to either swap the HDDs with SSDs or upgrade to a more powerful configuration.
They will also be able to add more disks to their Atom 1 setup, if necessary (in this case they will be able to use up to 3 disks at 2TB each).
You can see how it works in practice further below.

What dedicated server storage quotas are currently available?
Of the 11 dedicated server configurations that are currently available, 8 offer expandable storage.
The default storage quota each server comes pre-configured with (middle column) and the maximum possible storage capacity (third column):
As you can see, the default storage space can be increased by up to 93%.
This will give your customers a great opportunity to scale up their storage as per their particular needs.

How can customers make use of the new storage upgrade options?
Right after a given customer of yours selects their preferred dedicated server setup on the order form, they will be offered the option to configure their storage settings:
First, the customer will be able to decide which storage configuration to go with.
They could either go with the default storage quota:
or select an alternative storage capacity in accordance with their current and immediate future needs:
They will be able to upgrade their
current HDD/ SSD storage capacity:
(1) – to switch from a more capacious HDD to a faster SSD:
(2) – or vice versa – from an SSD to a more capacious HDD (at no extra cost!)
– if they want to use their server for storage purposes predominantly:
Apart from the option to upgrade the default storage, the clients will also be able to add extra disks (HDDs/SSDs) to their current setup:
Depending on the number of slots the given server setup supports, they will be able to add up to 4 extra disks.

How do I manage the storage upgrade options?
You can find the new storage upgrade options listed under 'Dedicated Upgrades' in the Dedicated Server Offers section:
You can set your own retail prices on the basis of the wholesale ones:
***
The new storage upgrade options allow your customers to reconfigure the default storage parameters of their chosen dedicated server configuration
according to their specific demands.
This makes the recently launched new line of dedicated servers even more flexible and capable of meeting the ever-growing demands of your dedicated hosting customers.

Windows 10 now on 600 million machines.

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella told shareholders that Windows 10 has now passed 600 million monthly active users, picking up 100 million since May of this year. This number counts all Windows 10 devices used over a 28-day period. While most of these will be PCs, there are other things in the mix there: a few million Xbox Ones, a few million Windows 10 Mobile phones, and special hardware like the HoloLens and Surface Hub. The exact mix between these categories isn't known, because Microsoft doesn't say. The company's original ambition (and sales pitch to developers) was to have one billion systems running Windows 10 within about three years of the operating system's launch. In July last year, the company acknowledged that it won't hit that target—the original plan called for  50 million or more phone sales a year , which the retreat from the phone market has made impossible. But at the current rate it should still be on track for somewhere in excess of 700 million use...

WZoneLite – A Pretty Cool WooCommerce Amazon Affiliate Plugin .

Everyone wants to make a million dollars by being a blogger. The promise of riches and internet fame is a big draw to doing it for a lot of people, and I’m sorry to say that the reality of being a blogger (even a professional blogger!) is not quite…as financially lucrative as all that. But that’s not to say that it  can’t be –one of the best ways to start your empire is with an Amazon affiliate plugin. For me, the Amazon Associates program has been one of the biggest earners for me over the years. Not only are there CPM ads like Google Adsense (you know, the normal banner ads we all love to hate), but any time someone clicks a link from your site, you get a percentage of  anything  they buy while the token from your site lasts in their browser. If they buy a song, you get a few cents. If they buy a new MacBook Pro and iPhone? You get…a lot more cents. With that in mind, WZoneLite is a  pretty cool WooCommerce Amazon affiliate plugin that syncs everything together s...

Game-changing SEO trends that will dominate 2018.

Changing nature of the rules of the game. As search engines strive to improve the quality of search results, some ranking factors shift shapes, others fall into oblivion, and completely new ones arise out of nowhere. To help you stay ahead of the game in 2018, here’s a list of the most prominent trends that are gaining momentum, with tips on how you can prepare for each. 1. The rise of SERP features Are you assuming a #1 organic ranking is  the  way to get as much traffic as possible? Think again. Increasingly, SERP features (local packs, Knowledge panels, featured snippets and so on) are stealing searchers’ attention and clicks from organic listings. And it’s only fair if you consider the evolution the Google SERP has been through. It has gone all the way from “10 blue links”… … to something that makes you feel like you’re part of a Brazilian carnival. What can you do about it? With the evolution of SERP features, it’s critical that you (a) track your rankings within...
