SAN DIEGO—Red Apple Media sister company dotCOM host has been featured in a video profile produced by international tech company Parallels to showcase one of the hosting provider’s many success stories. Featuring co-founder and President Remik Kolodziej, the video shows how Red Apple Media’s and dotCOM host’s management tools helped a fast-growing start-up develop into a flourishing online business with more than a decade of success.
After a year in business, mainstream surface graphic designer Blik signed with dotCOM host to create a secure and reliable ecommerce platform for its growing online business. After implementing a variety of ecommerce and management tools – including the Plesk control panel developed by Parellels – Blik was able to build its online presence and manage its servers easily and efficiently 24 hours a day. Now, 10 years later, Blik is an internationally acclaimed design company.
“We are quite proud of the work our sister company, dotCOM host, has done with Blik and we love helping small and medium-sized companies like Blik do better business online,” said Red Apple Media VP-Sales Michelle Lockhart. “Blik is just one of countless satisfied customers who benefit first-hand from our unique range of hosting, content delivery and ecommerce tools.”
Before working with dotCOM host, Blik was at the mercy of its previous hosting company to make even minor adjustments to the site. At that point the company was adding new mailboxes, setting up new FTP accounts and adjusting their servers every day, and needed to switch to a provider that would make running their online business easier. That’s where dotCOM host and the Plesk control panel came in.
“We like to make changes on the fly whenever we need to, whenever we want to,” the Blik CEO said. “We don’t have the resources here on staff to be able to keep a full time technical person and having something like Plesk for us is very beneficial because it allows us the access and control that we need whenever we need it.”
Following Blik’s booming success, the makers of Plesk decided to feature dotCOM host and Blik in an online video highlighting its success story. The full video can be viewed here.
Plesk, available to all Red Apple Media and dotCOM host clients, is a convenient automation tool for day-to-day website management that allows small and medium-sized businesses handle their online accounts without having to outsource for help.
