While we still continue to compare new client’s sites with Pagespeed. We have also put together a tool which will show us aggregated time/count/sizes of loaded websites. Below is a read out of latest as well as Pagespeed results:

MariaDB Server Updates

Downtime Information Servers Updates Upgrades No Comments

In an effort to avoid this last weekends downtime again. The Database server was taken offline for a few minutes while the logs were moved to a separate hard drive. Previously there was approx 60GB of space available for the logs. This has been more than enough for nearly 2 years. However it was not enough this last weekend. So we have moved the logs into their own separate 500GB hard drive.

We will also be putting in a pruning system to avoid this issue even if the logs reach that 500GB size without auto pruning.

As with any downtime clients are compensated with much more time as a credit on their account for the downtime. For this last weekends downtime every client recieved a 1 week credit to their account for their subscription based services.

Development Information Information Software Updates No Comments

It’s been some time since a post was made here on our blog. We have been extremely busy with a couple large projects. So busy we are actually expanding our office.

While we can’t release a whole lot of information at this time. We are also excited to announce that we will be Writing a modularized platform software package. From this package users will be able to add in blogs, forums, shopping carts, etc. All into the same system and all able to run multiple domains. While this will be no easy task and it will take some time to complete. We believe there is a great need for software of this calibre.

Right now there are great softwares out there for each individual task. But then you have to mesh them together, spend thousands of dollars getting them to look the same. Even then they still don’t work together they work alongside each other. A user on your forum can’t log into your shopping cart, same is true with the blog.

More about this project will be announced in the coming months as licensing and trademarking of the name are complete.

Changes to pricing

Billing Information Offers & Specials Updates No Comments

As of September 1st 2014 CLDMV will be changing it’s future subscriber pricing. All current clients will remain with the same pricing structure which was available previously.

Namely the subscription based fees will be changed. Clear examples are below:

Current Subscription fee(s):

First Node: 100$/mo
Additional Node(s): 25$/ea/mo

Example: Client runs 4 website businesses. First website business is 100$/mo, the additional 3 are 25$/ea/mo. The total subscription fee per month would be 175$/month.

Subscription fee(s) as of September 1st:

First and Odd number Node(s): 100$/mo
Even number Node(s): 25$/ea/mo

Example: Client runs 4 website businesses. First website business is 100$/mo; the the second is 25$/mo, the third being 100$/mo, and the fourth being 25$/mo. The total subscription fee per month would be 250$/month.

The change to the subscription fee(s) were carefully considered and debated. Unfortunately CLDMV would not be able to operate at it’s current standards if the original fee(s) were kept and half or more of the nodes available per server were taken up from additional 25$/mo cost. So in order to maintain our current standards and stay in business we came to the above compromise in cost.

Unlike most hosting companies who will put 100,000+ users on a single server; use network drives, use mass storage drives, use cheap 100mbps lines, or do anything else to make more money. CLDMV does none of those. Our servers are restricted to 500 nodes per server. The only time network drives are used are for backups. The only time mass storage drives are used is for backups. All of our servers are either dual 1000mbps or dual 10gbps connections. Our servers are also using the newest top software to serve our client’s websites. We aren’t using “clunky” and insecure control panels to host our clients. So our clients get better speed and better performance.

Information Updates Why CLDMV No Comments

CLDMV has opened a Development portion to our business. With this clients or anyone for that matter can contact us for web development. We are also partnered with 1stwebstudio for design projects. So all that’s left is to offer is domains, SSLs, SEO. While we do provide domains and SSLs already there is no automation in this process.

Also CLDMV has opened a Twitter and Tumblr account for people who wish to follow updates and posts through those forms of media. The blog site has also had some minor changes in design related to social networking.

Moving forward we excited to be able to provide most web related services to existing and new clients. We are still looking for a reliable and friendly service for SEO.
