Dear Customers,

Many of you have been with us from the very beginning. It’s hard to believe it has been over 20 amazing years and we can’t thank you enough for putting your trust in us!

Stephan and I are both planning on retiring/semi-retiring in the coming year(s). Stephan has had a lifelong goal of retiring at 55 and I am also ready to start winding things down and spending more time with my family and doing the things I love, like fishing and boating.

Choosing a hosting provider is a huge deal and when you selected RackCo, we understood how important that decision was and the trust you put in us, so finding the perfect successor was paramount! We knew the importance of finding a company who had the same customer centric core values and beliefs, as both Stephan and I, would be essential. In addition, we needed a hosting company that was well established, with the infrastructure to support the wide array of businesses that we serve.

We have found the perfect successor, Liquid Web Family of Brands.

We have put together a “White Glove” migration plan, one that will provide a smooth transition to their platform. During this transition period, rest easy, knowing you will still have access to the RackCo support team, in addition to Stephan and me. We will all be working in coordination with the Liquid Web Techs for a flawless migration.

Why did we choose the Liquid Web Family of Brands? Liquid Web is a family of brands totally devoted to online business professionals like you.
