Cloud / Hosted Solutions

“Cloud-based” is not just a trendy tech term these days.  It is a revolutionary way for businesses to host their websites and email without the need for a host server, which is subject to power outages, natural disasters and server crashes/server down-time.

Rent-A-Nerd offers these main choices for cloud-based hosting, each of which will be specially tailored to your needs.
