As a business owner, just how many hats are you wearing right now? We’ll take a guess: you’re answering emails, tweaking your website design, and juggling social media content – all while trying to tackle pesky tech issues along the way. Hitting a little too close to home? Managing a scattered suite of digital services can make even the most seasoned professionals feel overwhelmed.
Well, thankfully, there’s another way. Consolidating your hosting, email, or domain under one provider lowers stress and costs. No matter where we’re at in the year, there’s no time like the present for a digital spring clean.
1. One provider, one payment
Juggling invoices from several service providers isn’t just tedious – it’s a time sink. With separate hosting, email, and domain providers, it’s easy to lose track of billing cycles, subscription renewals, or even instances where you may have been overcharged.
By consolidating with a single provider, you streamline your payments into one clear, predictable bill. No more searching through inboxes for receipts or accidentally missing a payment because the invoice got buried under a mountain of emails.
2. One cost-effective package
Running your website and online services through different providers often means paying for overlapping features or redundant add-ons. As a result, bundling your services with one provider isn’t just more convenient – it’s cheaper, too.
3. One place for hassle-free upgrades
What about when you get too big for your current package? Growth is exciting – and we want to make it easy for you to do. Whether you’re launching an ecommerce platform, amping up your storage, or setting up a new email account for a team member or department, upgrades should be simple to set up and get sorted.
With Webcentral, scaling up is as straightforward as ticking a box or making a quick call. There’s no need to switch between several accounts or negotiate with different companies.
4. One support team, faster fixes
When an issue arises, you don’t want to play the dreaded game of tech-support table tennis. We’ve all been there – calling your hosting provider, only to be told the issue actually lies with your email platform. Or vice versa.
With a single provider, troubleshooting is simple. One support team knows the nooks and crannies of your entire setup – allowing them to resolve issues swiftly without passing you around. Webcentral’s local team is ready to jump in and sort out the problem, fast. Best of all, you’ll speak to a real human, 24/7. No bots. No runaround.
5. Fewer providers, better protection
You wouldn’t hire bodyguards from four different companies. When you manage servers across multiple providers, you create gaps in your security – leaving you vulnerable to breaches. On the flip side, when you consolidate your servers all under one roof, a simplified infrastructure makes it easier to put in place unified security measures across your services.
Ultimately, a single provider helps make sure your hosting, email, and domain services work seamlessly together. This means fewer compatibility issues and more peace of mind.
6. One provider, one vision
When it comes to your digital setup, consistency is key. A unified provider makes sure everything – like Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, and WordPress – works in harmony. Think about how much simpler life would be if you could log into one dashboard to manage everything – no need to hop between platforms or deal with different user interfaces.
Even better, a reliable digital setup means your customers won’t face issues like broken links or slow load times, keeping them happy and engaged – and who doesn’t love that?!
7. One lasting partnership
When you find The One (provider, of course – what were you thinking?), they get to know your business inside and out. They can anticipate your needs, offer proactive solutions, and be on hand with personalised support tailored to your goals. You probably have trusted advisors for things like your finances, business plan, and marketing strategy – people that have been with you through a lot. Why should your digital infrastructure be any different?
It’s important to bear in mind that relying on one provider can also pose risks – like potential downtime or service interruptions if they face issues on their end. The key to dodging this risk is making sure that your provider has strong uptime guarantees and a clear disaster recovery plan in place. Regularly reassessing your provider’s performance will also make sure you’re getting the most bang for your buck.
Turn chaos into unparalleled efficiency
If the stress of wasted time, missed charges, and overpaying for add-ons that aren’t actually benefiting your business is starting to add up, let’s fix things. By opting to go with a single provider for all your digital services, you can drastically reduce your outgoings, eliminate unnecessary complexity from your day-to-day, and free up time to focus on your company.
