Additional Offerings
——-
In addition to hosting services, LexiConn offers a variety of other offerings, some of which we’ll briefly cover below.

Domain Name Registrations

Having your domain name in our registry allows us to monitor your expiration date as well as keep you informed of any required updates to your domain record. You certainly are not required to use our domain registration service to host with us, but many people prefer to do so in order to keep everything in one place and to take advantage of our domain monitoring. If you would like to transfer your domain name to our registry, the transfer is $25 and it adds a year to your current expiration date. You can initiate the transfer via this link:

SSL Certificates

Having your own SSL certificate allows you to make secure calls (https://) via your domain name as opposed to using the shared secure server name. It is an inexpensive way to boost consumer confidence and many marketing/tracking programs require it for easy tracking via cookies. Further, you’ll be able to display a widely recognizable secure seal on any or all of your pages.

An advantage to purchasing your certificate through us is that we are able to actively monitor its expiration. We have seen many cases where customers with certificates from other vendors aren’t even aware that their cert has expired until a customer tells them. We are also able to address any issues related to your certificate and can easily re-issue it for you if need be. If you would like to purchase either a GeoTrust or Symantec SSL certificate, you may do so through our site at:

Mailing List Options

The majority of our clients use our in-house offering for newsletters as it is less expensive than most third party options. We offer a customized version of the Active Campaign product, and you can read complete details about it here:

For clients that prefer an even more robust option, Constant Contact is an excellent choice and is used by many of our clients. They offer free support, hundreds of customizable templates, social media integration, realtime reporting and much more. Complete details can be found on their site, located here:

Ecommerce Offerings

Whether you have a small store with a handful of products, or a large store with hundreds of thousands of products, we can help you get the most out of your ecommerce site. We install and support both ShopSite and Magento and offer customizations for each one that can help your store succeed. Reference these links for more complete details:

Content Delivery Network (CDN)

A Content Delivery Network (CDN) can greatly improve your site’s speed. A CDN takes the images from your website and distributes them to various locations across the globe. The CDN location closest to your website’s visitor then delivers the images/content to them, thereby providing them with a much quicker experience on your site. More details about this offering and a sign up form are located at:
