People Behind A Website Managers of internet companies

Recommended Posts

 

 

This is not an advertisement topic. This post contains information that seems nice to know about one of the most cheap domain name registrars and a webhost.Sorry, but this really looks like an advertising topic. The only information useful for most of us is in the title, most of other parts of this topic are really useless. Do we really need the photo of the boss? Do we really need to sew how the datacenter looks like ? The datacenter looks like most of other datacenters, so nothing really useful.


The topic about the promotion price of a .com domain name issued by the registrar 1&1 got a bit offline by putting in lots of information about the 1&1 company itself and pictures and videos of people who work for 1&1. Moderator yordan asks in that thread if it is necessary to see a picture of the head manager of the company. This question seems to address an important subject.

The point is if it is important to know what company has put a website online. This subject has been dealed with in the thread itself. The experience with the website of 1&1 and the discoveries that are made urge to give more attention to this subject.

A company presents itself in a lot of ways. The different ways the company presents itself to the world outside the company together form the image the people outside the company get of the company.

Banks tend to keep their business as secret as possible. This has been accepted. A reason for this acceptance could be that banks work with money of their customers. And customers like to see their financial topics kept secret.

This hidden way of acting has caused a lot of problems the last years.

Companies decide what information they give in a website. It seems lots of information is missing in a lot of websites. The company just gives the information to get a potential customer to make a purchase. Information that makes it possible to get a critical look at the way the company performs are not available on the main websites of lots of companies. While it is easy to fill in a form and order a purchase, to buy an item and to order a service of a company it is much harder to find information about the company itself. Examples are the address of the company, the managers, the financial figures and the profits the company makes.

An example is Microsoft. The work to build a new and renewed operating program costs a lot of money. This money is earned relatively fast. When the costs of the building of the operating program are earned the next income made by the operating program is revenue. The portion of the profits of the income of Microsoft is huge. While a company usual has a revenue and profits rate of 6% when the company is doing fine the revenue percentage of Microsoft is much higher. Once the costs of the building of the operating program are earned the costs of selling the operating program exists mainly of the costs of the blank dvd the operating program is burnt on. There are more costs like advertisement, company costs, customers help and service. Beside those costs the issue of the operating program doesn't add to the costs of Microsoft. This makes the issue and selling of an operating program a very profitable business.


Another issue is the question where a company origins from. The United States of America have some big internet and computer companies. Microsoft, Google, IBM, Facebook, Google, Dell, HP and Apple are some of the biggest internet and computer companies in the world. For this reason it is interesting to see which big internet companies are in countries outside the United States of America. And if there are some big internet and computer companies it is interesting to see what this companies do to get this high place in the international internet business.

Bill Gates is a famous person. The health of Steve Jobs influences the price of the shares of Apple. This are some examples that can explain that some people find it interesting to know who runs a company.

The person and the personality of the boss of the company can influence the thoughts a customer can have about the company. And sometimes it is interesting to get to know the ideas of the future of the internet the managers of internet companies have.

The original topic about the price of a .com domain name of $ 4.99 by 1&1.

Astahost is a forum for technical information.Marketing informations can be felt as important, but they have no place in a technical section.I can show my girlfriend's picture or someone else picture in the Welcome section, but not in a technical section.Same thing with some topics, which are welcome in the "Jokes and Humour" subforum, not in the technical subforums.I have to go to the dentist this afternoon, this is very important for a lot of people and everybody has to know this ; however, this info should not be in the "system tools and utilities" section of this forum.
