In the article, the basic ingredients are laid out, but as with most things in life, the way it all fits together is crucial. According to the article, only two people at Coca-Cola know how the soda’s secret ingredient, 7x Flavor, is mixed. And these two mix-masters never fly on the same plane in case it crashes. This is serious stuff people.

For more insight into secret recipes, we asked one of our recent web design clients, County Soda Inc., to share some of theirs—but they’re not talking.

What they do is not easy. And what they do is strong arm and threaten their clients. It takes a certain level of depravity and immaturity not found in most businesses, but they’re just that dedicated. This was in direct response to our client asking to be released from their hosting service:

Nancy or Scott, as you know we have been hosting your website for years and doing a great job what we do is not easy and don’t let anyone tell you different we have been getting called by a Ryan Turner to move your site to a different server. DisgruntledHosts.com has the most secure servers out there with the highest level of security allowed. ASA secured. What appears to be simple is not if it is not broke don’t fix it. I think Ryan is going to ride our coat tails it won’t work. All 9000 back links will go away and that will effect your Google rankings right away. If you hire a link farm which will be your only option you WILL attract porno sites and Google will band your website. The risk you are about to take will take a toll on your business. The main factor is we spend $50.000.00 a month on research for the search engines you will not do that and I am sure you are not aware of the Google change as of oct 28th which is affecting over 50% of all web sites out there. We had to adjust over 9000 clients to maintain rankings. The bottom line is someone told you the mistruth and will hurt your site and rankings. This e-mail which I need back before I will release your website to anyone is for liability purposes to verify that DisgruntledHosts.com will no longer be liable for your website performance and or rankings in the search engines. You are authorizing the site to be moved if it does not work we are not responsible as in the past people have moved there sites they dropped rankings in Google and tried to come after us for loss of income. Please respond to this and I will release your site with my best wishes when your business drops off someone else will write you a check for the loss. After you realize the mistake you are making you can always return to DisgruntledHosts.com the cost would be somewhere around $7500.00 per year. At this point we are going to pursue another company in your area (a competitor) to promote to Google if we sign a competitor we could not take your company back as we don’t promote direct competitors.

Thank You

Not only do they specialize in threats but they also excel at sarcasm

Have Ryan call us and we also discussed your case and we decided to promote one of your competitors who called us a few months ago. she had seen your site ranking and wanted our service.  because we promoted you we turned her down. now that you have left we will do her website for her. As a friend there is no way he will compete with my company and our work so I feel bad that your website will drop off of Google. It was a pleasure working with you and your company good luck in the future

This guy is getting too old for this Sh*t. And by sh*t we mean responding to clients in a mature and professional manner. But on the other hand, he is just the right age to respond to clients like a 10 year old bully. Note the proper use of caps to really hammer home his point.

Nancy, I am way to old to play games with any client I am releasing your website and good luck remember I am the number one SEO company putting websites on Google I prove that by showing you we rank number one in our key words and also remember that anyone can tell you they can put you on Google BUT IF THERE WEBSITE IS NOT ON GOOGLE how are they going to do yours we lead by example so ask Ryan to show you where is website ranks and I GUARENTEE he is not on Google front page we are……so there is no way in the world he will put you back on Google once you Fall…………………

If you’re doing business with a hosting or SEO company like this, stop it. You really deserve better. But even if you’re not working with a company this bad, and you’re just not satisfied with the level of results or competence you’re receiving, you should know there are better companies out there. Here at 3PRIME we combine results based strategies with fair pricing to make our clients more visible, profitable and successful. And above all, we treat everyone we do business with respectfully. You can see proof of that on our Better Business Bureau Profile. We get new business every week from referrals and from customers who’ve done searches in Google for keywords we rank well for, such as CT SEO.

The main problem with the internet for companies like DisgruntledHosts.com, is that there isn’t anywhere to hide, and it’s about time they learned that lesson.

Contact us to hear about how we can help your business–or if you just want to find out the real company behind DisgruntledHosts.com.

I’ve been offline for almost 6 months and trying to catch up again. What would be 3 noteworthy changes/updates in web design during that time?

- Jörg B. 28 / M / Copenhagen, Denmark

3 significant developments in recent months are:

1) Simpler messages incorporated into large homepage presentation layer
2) Incorporation of video into websites
3) Incorporation of social media iconography and connections into websites

Does anyone know… how to get freelance web design projects?
- Arun G. M / Trivandrum, India

I see you’re in India, I’d guess you’re looking to provide the service outside of India. Your best bet is going to be to try to do one of 2 things:

1) Create accounts and build a reputation on the freelancer type websites.

2) Target an area where you have some knowledge and market yourself to that area. This could mean an industry, like medical, travel, e-commerce, or it might be an location you have some experience with. The choice should be based on your personal experience since to get projects you’ll need to introduce yourself and convince your potential customers why they should hire you.

Good luck!
