Halloween 2009 Promotion

Posted by Jules on October 26th, 2009 - announcements, coupons, promotions | 12 Comments »

We love promotions and coupon code giveaways as much as anyone else, so this Halloween we decided to try something a little different. Rather than just provide you with fixed coupon codes via Twitter or our blog, we thought we’d have a little fun instead. What better way then to take advantage of a tradition many children engage in, and allow you to TRICK OR TREAT us?

That’s right, it sounds crazy… and it probably is, but David cooked up an awesome Halloween themed logo and I went back to my PHP roots in order to create a kind of online TRICK OR TREAT feature that allows you (existing or new clients) to trick or treat us. Now, obviously you can’t throw eggs, flour or tissue paper at us but you do have the chance of bagging yourself some random discount coupons or even a years hosting completely free of charge!

Trick or Treat

When you TRICK OR TREAT us, you have the chance of either hitting TRICK or TREAT. TRICK fortunately won’t melt your computer or do anything bad to you, except give you a non-positive response. TREAT on the other hand may give you a random discount coupon (ranging from 5-30% off). Very very lucky users will have the chance of picking up a years free Starter/Blog hosting package – completely free of charge.

To try and prevent exploitation and people from hammering the page in order to try and win a years hosting, we’ve limited each attempt to once per hour. If you don’t get yourself a coupon, or you’d prefer to try your hand at getting a higher valued coupon, simply come back later. We’ve tested the page as much as we can, however naturally we reserve the right to reset or remove coupons if we detect any foul play or coding issues on our part. This promotion (and the corresponding coupon codes) will expire on November 1st 2009.

So what are you waiting for? TRICK OR TREAT us now by clicking the image above! Best of luck.

Massive October Promotion

Posted by Jules on October 3rd, 2009 - announcements, coupons, promotions | 4 Comments »

The last few months have been good to us, and we’ve reached the stage where we’ve just installed our third shared hosting server. We’re still a very small hosting provider comparitively, but we’re extremely happy with the level of service we’ve been able to provide to date, as I hope our customers also are.

We often provide promotional coupons over Twitter for new clients, but we felt it’s time to give a little something back to existing clients too. For the next 3 days we’re going to provide 50% off any hosting order, to all new clients when using the coupon code THIS3. To recap, when signing up for a new hosting package, simply enter the coupon code THIS3 and your order will be half price! Please note that this only applies to new orders, and does not include domain registration. This coupon will expire on October 6th 2009.

What about existing clients? If you’re an existing client, we will happily upgrade one of your hosting accounts to the next tier completely free of charge. Your price will remain the same, but you will receive the next upper available package for the remainder of your hosting with us. If you’re currently an Ultra account holder, we’ll provide you with a unique coupon code that will allow you to redeem a Starter/Blog hosting package, completely free of charge for life. The deadline to receive your free upgrade or unique coupon will also expire on October 6th 2009.

To receive your upgrade, please get in touch with a member of our team via the support ticket system. Due to billing software limitations, we are unable to upgrade all of our clients automatically, so please consider this a Twitter/Blog promotion only.

We hope you find this promotion helpful, and we’d like to thank all of our existing clients for being a part of the this* family. As always, if you’re happy with our service, please consider writing a review about us. You can find information on the best places to do that by visiting this page: http://www.thiswebhost.com/happy
