* * Maternity News * *
As some of you may already know, one of our team is currently expecting. Lisa
Mackay is due to start on her maternity leave in mid to late October, so will
therefore be out of the office for a few months. We'd like to wish her and the
newborn (when he or she arrives) all the very best.
We're pleased to say that we now have a new employee who will be working with
us while Lisa is on maternity leave, and will possibly remain with us on a
permanent basis once Lisa returns. We'd therefore like to introduce you to Jo
Donald who is taking on the role of Support and Sales Administrator. We're sure
that you'll all soon get to know her and that she'll help with any queries that
you might have if you get in touch with our team.

* * The Latest Domain Scams * *
Unfortunately there is always someone out to make a buck on the internet, we
would therefore like to urge caution in relation to any emails you might
receive in relation to renewal of your domain names. There are several
organisations who send emails, making it appear to be an invoice for a renewal
to prompt you into paying them for services. Sometimes they'll be looking to
take the money and run, others will be attempting to get your approval to do a
transfer by making it look like a standard renewal.
We've put an example of one of the current scams doing the rounds online so
that you can take a look at the sort of tactics being used. If you ever receive
an email that you're not sure about - please feel free to get in touch with us
and we'll be able to confirm whether or not it's a genuine message.

* * Half Price .info Domain Registrations * *
As we've been offered a reduced price on .info domains from our top level
supplier, we'd like to pass that saving on to you. During the month of October
we'll be offering half price .info domain registrations (with the discount
applying to the first year only). If you'd like to register a .info domain name
for £12.50 + VAT please go to the following website:

* * Buy a Domain for that Unusual Christmas Present * *
Looking for that gift for someone who already has everything, then why not
register a domain name for them for Christmas?
We've been seeing an increase in the number of domain names that are being
bought for relatives and friends, and know that many of these are for Christmas
presents. For example, if you were buying a domain name for John Smith, you
might consider johnsmith.com, john-smith.co.uk or johnsmith.me.uk. You can also
pay for the domain for up to 10 years so the present lasts more than just one
Christmas. It's a great present for someone who's difficult to buy for.
Go to our website to register or call our team for more details.
