New webhost! 300% Green!!
Today was a great day. I finally left my old webhost. Half of day was spent on searching for a new webhost. The rest of the day was spent on moving all of my domains. Uggg, such fun!
Anyhow, I can't believe this, but there's a popular webhost called Green Geeks that not only uses 100% Wind power, but is 300% Wind power. That means they provide 3 times as much energy back into the grid. Green Geeks do this by purchasing enough wind energy credits to put back into the grid 3X of power having been produced by wind power. The following photo is the certificate of purchase of 2.3 million MW of clean, renewable energy by GreenGeeks certified by Bonneville Environmental Foundation.
Also the owner of Green Geeks is great guy. Here's a quote from a letter he wrote -->
At Green Geeks we have two important goals.
Provide quality, dependable web hosting services at affordable rates with the best customer service in the business.
We live by very simple and important principle, which is, without customers we have no business. Our customer’s satisfaction is the #1 focus for every team member of the company and I personally guarantee my attention for to every customer.
Promote every web site on the internet to be hosted by a web hosting company utilizing green energy.
We hope that if you do not choose Green Geeks to host your web site, please choose some other certified green energy web host. When you do choose a green hosting company please promote that fact on your web site. We want your web site visitors to see that you support green energy.
I'll give them a try for awhile and see how well the server performance is. If it's at least as good as my previous webhost, then I'll gladly keep Green Geeks! It's for a great cause. The energy from World wide webhost servers alone is becoming so great that is now a concern. Lets all try to encourage every website to go with a green webhost. There are now a lot of Green webhosts. Presently Green Geeks is the leader with 300% Green.
For now, I can happily say, :-D :-D :-D
