I worked in customer service for three years before HostMySite, I love helping people!

What’s your area of expertise? Is there a certain subject you like helping customers with the most?
I wouldn’t really say that I have one area of expertise. I try to be versatile because there are many different things a technician can deal with from day to day. However, I like to think that I’m really good when it comes to helping people with email.

Well I really love to help people and solve puzzles. It’s very rewarding when I have been able to figure out a problem with a website and get it fixed; then the customer is so grateful!
What advice you would like to share with customers?
I would say the top of the list is to make sure you have copies of your website’s files. If you’ve had a developer create your website, ask them for a backup copy. We also have an inexpensive website backup option for our shared hosting customers that I strongly recommend.
