Our office mascot and tennis ball manager, Murphy, gets top billing on the home page of our latest web project for VetMEDResearch. As the largest verified veterinary research panel in the U.S., VetMEDResearch helps animal health companies reach veterinarians and hospital staff for research projects through surveys and focus groups. Over 3,000 verified panel members participate in the research for pharmaceutical companies, food and nutrition companies, pet service and product companies, as well as allied advertising and marketing research firms. Murphy approves.

We received a phone call recently from one of our customers about a domain name renewal solicitation they received. It looked legitimate until you read the cleverly hidden small print.
These “domain name renewals” are notifications that may be sent to you by U.S. Mail, fax or perhaps by email. These mailings are unsolicited and from unscrupulous domain registrars that are attempting to trick unwary domain owners into transferring their domain name to their services. They begin their letter announcing that your domain name is about to expire and you need to renew. These companies typically mark up the cost of the domain significantly beyond the market rate of domain names. As soon as you send a check or credit card payment, your domain name registration transfers to this company and you will pay additional costs. One recent mailing we received was from “Liberty Names of America” which has been given an F rating by the Better Business Bureau.
Please be wary of any notification you receive from someone who is not your current domain name registar. If you are not sure, contact your website host.
