Whose fault is it, me or the client when doing web site?

Saturday, May 1st, 2010

Last month my company started work on this person’s website which sells awards and trophies. We made a deal with him. It was a $6200 sale for me.

On the contract, he didnt want web hosting with us. Let me back up, he wanted to turn his normal website into a e-Commerce website which requires a dedicated server. We run other client’s sites on dedicated servers. He refused saying he has sites all on network solutions website and he doesnt want to change hosts.

We asked him various times if he is running windows 2003 and dedicated server. Network solutions we later found out doesnt run either.

So about a month, we were working on his site which is bs because he didnt

So back and forth we were also trying to figure out his name server because he bought his name server overseas which is stupid. Now I had to keep explaining to him why we cant work on his site because he has to have his name server pointing to us and we need his ftp login information so we can upload files to his site. He is so ignorant of all this.

Today I called him saying we need to move his site over to our server because network solution doesnt allow us to install sitegalaxy onto network solution. Then he got upset and said ” just give us all the images your company has done for us”, ” we are done working with you , it seems that you guys are not capable of doing the work we asked “…etc

I said I will contact him later today.

First off, we did finish his site . We gave him access to his own administrative control panel so he can upload the images and files himself.

What we are trying to do is turn his site online by replacing it with a site he has now.

What we are going to do is trick him by having a redirect routing pointing to our server when he assumes that hes actually going to his server.

So whose fault is this? What have we done wrong?

I keep telling him that Im just the messenger for my boss and dont blame me because I dont want this to be added to my resume when i find another job in the future.

Btw, is market manager worth mentioning in my resume when it has no experience with networking?

1. He did mention he did not want our hosting. We told him that he needs to get dedicated server. He says why not use our network solution hosting we have? We told him its not dedicated because e-Commerce sites need larger space but he kept ignoring and said just use ours. So we just continued work.

2. He didnt pay all. He said once his site is online then he will pay the remaining cost which is $800.

Right now, we are trying to figure out how to get his site up and running using network solution’s web host which is 100 gigs.

We redirect just to get his site up and running and move on. Its giving everyone on our company headaches.
Helpful person , let me explain some things to you . First, go back to college and learn to read.
We did check network solutions. They dont offer dedicated servers. Period. We told the client numerous times, he still did not understand. We offered him to let us host it since we use dedicated servers, no budge.

No, we want to host the site because we do 24/7 backup, free debugging, free antivirus, if anything happens to the site, we can fix it right away. Thats also our maintence combination. Plus, if he has any graphics that needs changing like vacation notice, we can change it for free, no charge.

We did find out what operation system they use. Its linux and windows. I told him that he needs to use windows, he says ” we’ll i’ll buy you a windows pro package”..which doesnt help , its not dedicated.

His name server is at oznic which is switzerland. We gotten no response from them about this issue as of yet.

We are professional. We have over 60+ clients from americasmart.com

As a consequence, the web hosting service standards improved a lot and constantly is on verge of rising and evidently the clients are constantly enjoying the taste of amazing new features that were previously not there. Given below are the few things, which some web hosts frequently offer to their clients.

1.) Due to competitive market scenario website hosts are coming forward to assist the clients in the purpose of publishing and managing their own email newsletters or eZines. It is one of the most effective marketing weapons that promote sales. But some hosts go two-step forward by offering an infinite amount of auto responders. This assists a site owner automatically to pursue with prospects and therefore probability of making sale become significantly higher.

2.) In the contemporary era of time one can easily get the facility of hosting services that assists him/her to set up one’s own affiliate program which is verified to be the most successful route to grab traffic and profits for webmasters. There are several good sites like Amazon.com, which enables other website owners to promote their site and products on their site and in return can earn commissions from the sales that result from traffic that they have referred to one’s site as well.

3.) If one talks about the third most popular feature then it will probably be the service provided by the host to the users to protect their download page where the user is selling digital products for e.g. e-books, software etc. from his/her site. As in the current time period increasing number of hackers is a contentious issue and such sort of services definitely going to act as a pain killer for many webmasters.

4.) A few hosting services are also taking into account the hastily increasing threat of junk mail and offer quality filters to protect one’s email accounts. A few hosting providers even provide built-in anti-virus software in order that email that come to the inbox of the user along with the company of viruses, is automatically deleted.

Thus, above mentioned are the extra services, which hosts provide to the client. Thus, one can rightly say that,” The war between two, benefit the third party”.
