Look around the web hosting industry and you’ll run into a lot of similar looking websites offering similar packages with similar costs. So how is a webhost supposed to stand out amongst the crowd and attract new customers?

To help out, we’re presenting a webinar on August 26th, 2010. Adam Eisner, who heads up our domains business here at OpenSRS will take you through six tangible strategies that you can use to differentiate yourself in a crowded environment. He’ll bring you real-world examples along with data from our Reseller base that will provide you with practical ways to fuel growth and attract new customers.

As with all of our webinars, it’s free to attend and everyone is welcome. We’ll hold a pair of sessions on August 26th at 9am and 2pm EDT (that’s 1300 and 1800 UTC) to accommodate attendees in different time zones. Register today so you don’t forget. And, keep in mind that registering ensures that you’ll automatically get an email with a link to the archive after the webinar ends, so even if you can’t make it to the live event, it does make sense to click the link below and signup.

Developer Webinar Coming Up

We have another webinar coming up in two weeks and this time, we’re aiming the presentation squarely at developers.

We recently made available a PHP API Toolkit that Claire Lam, our Manager of Implementation Services put together. This Toolkit is a PHP library that aims to make working with the OpenSRS easier. A Ruby version, put together by Keiji Suzuki, will be available very shortly.

Claire has been talking about the Toolkit in the Developer/API area of the OpenSRS Forums for the past month or two and based on feedback from developers that have tried out the code, we’re ready to make it a little more official. This webinar will serve as an introduction to the code and help explain how to use it, and why we’re releasing it.

By developers, for developers

This is going to be a developer webinar–if you don’t know code, you’ll probably won’t be interested. If you do like to dig in to API docs and write a few lines of code now and then, feel free to join us. And, by all means, pass this along to your in-house developers, or anyone else you think might be interested.

The PHP version of the API Toolkit is available for download today. A Ruby version is just about complete and we’ll be making it available very shortly as well. You can find those downloads and documentation for the API Toolkits here.

Webinar: Introducing the New OpenSRS API Toolkits
with Claire Lam, Manager of Implementation Services, OpenSRS
and Jonathan Clarke, Implementation Specialist, OpenSRS

Looking to supercharge your SSL sales? Look no further.

One of the things we hear over and over again, is that it’s nearly impossible to sell SSL certificates in the face of companies like GoDaddy who seem to be more interested in moving as many units as possible, at the expense of the bottom line. But it’s simply not true–with the right information and techniques, you can effectively sell SSL by easily countering some common objections customers might have.

2010 is fast approaching and now is the time to start thinking about how to energize your SSL sales. And don’t forget that our GeoTrust $199 Extended Validation (EV) SSL Certificate promo is coming to an end soon as well. End 2009 with a bang and kickstart your SSL sales activities heading into the new year.

Get the Sale!

ssl_guyBob Angus, Product Marketing Manager, VeriSign, will present “Get the Sale! Overcoming four common objections when selling SSL.” Bob will address the four most common objections that you’ll face when selling SSL certificates, provide you with the information that you need to address each one head on, and help you make the sale.

He’ll cover everything from objections over price, to how to handle questions about technology from customers who may have bought into some common misconceptions about SSL. In short, Bob will arm you with information and tactics that you can use when selling SSL to even the most sceptical of customers.

This is a free event for OpenSRS Resellers.

Are you an Internet Service Provider that is allowing your competitors to establish business relationships with your customers? Do you have a strategy to grow your business and react to the changing needs of your customers?

In challenging times like these, it’s critical that you understand and recognize any opportunity to strengthen your existing customer relationships.

Many ISPs overlook the opportunities that offering web hosting and domain name services provide. As a result, they open the door for competitors who tap into their customer base and realize the potential that they should be realizing for themselves.
