Do you know where your web site ranks in the major search engines?
Do you check your rankings regularly to enable you to react to a drop in your ranking as soon as possible?

Checking your search engine ranking can be a time consuming activity, and one that can easily be put to one side when there are other, more pressing, tasks to complete.

We will check your rankings with the major search engines using your supplied keywords and email you a report of your rankings weekly or monthly.

This service is offered for only £45 + VAT per annum per web site. Please contact us to sign up for the service.

Spam emails (unsolicited emails) are on the increase. More and more of us are having to spend valuable time dealing with these emails, time that would be better spent doing other things. Although there are spam blocking products on the market, they require you to download the emails to your computer (risking potential virus infection) before the software goes about removing the spam. This means that your internet connection is tied up downloading the spam.

Our Spam Blocking service checks your email box for spam and deletes it before it ever reaches your computer. It aims to reduce the amount of spam by up to 95%. Apart for the obvious advantages of this, it also means that anyone using a GPRS service, where you pay based on the amount of data you download, will save money as your download quota will not be inflated by spam emails.

This service is aimed at existing customers who have your domain or web site hosted with Commatic, but can also be set up for new customers. The cost is just £45 per annum per email box (+ VAT)

For more details, please call 0870 321 8450 or send us an email.

Commatic also advises all clients to install a reputable virus checker package.

Does your computer have all of the latest driver software, is your virus checking software up-to-date, are there any security patches available for your operating system, would you benefit from installing more memory, is your hard disk running as efficiently as it should?

These are all questions that can be answered by using our PC Health Check service.

We will also check your computer(s) for "spyware" and data collectors which may be slowing your internet connection and transmitting personal data.

Finally, we will also recommend a backup plan based around one of the industry leading backup packages for which we are an authorised reseller.

Please call for details.

There are millions of web pages available to anyone with an internet connection. However who has the time to check them for changes?
