Hi There, 2013!

To say that 2012 was an amazingly successful year for Fresh Roasted Hosting would be doing a vast disservice to all the men and women who worked hard behind the scenes to make it all happen.  And it wouldn’t even come close to thanking our loyal customers for choosing a local web hosting company over [...]

Hurricane Sandy: We’re Still Brewing Strong

Sandy has come and gone, and aside from some high winds and rain later today, the worst is behind us.  I’m proud to announce that all of our services and servers were 100% operational all night long.  The Scranton datacenter lost voice phone service due to a Verizon outage, but all servers are still online.

SSL Certificates

Most of you already know that we’ve been approved to sell SSL certificates from major CAs like Comodo, Thawte, Symantec (formerly Verisign), and GeoTrust.  Because we never do anything half-roasted, we’re spending this week and next doing lots of acceptance testing on our billing software.  Until we officially open our doors, we thought you’d enjoy [...]
