I had to laugh the other day but at the same time it was a serious situation for the business involved. I read about a customer who had made a split second decision to move to another web company without consulting the original company who had set his on line business up!

The new company of course promised the earth however things didn’t work out well they sacked them, only to find that the registered administer of the website was the original web company. Only on the say so of the original company could the site have changes made. You can imagine the panic at the prospect of fees in exchange for co-operation.

Luckily the tale of woe had a happy ending the original web company were magnanimous and graciously moved the administrator’s email address to the address of their choice. It could have had an unhappy ending so PLEASE remember the following before moving on to another web company.

Is your company the registered holder of the domain name. If in doubt do a WHOIS Lookup
Make sure you have access to the adminstration control panel and UNDERSTAND it
Accept there must be some charge for moving on
Before doing any move remember the old adage of ‘better the devil you know‘
