Hosting guides, infrastructure deep-dives, and email deliverability from the team that's been running servers since 1992.
In October 2023, Google and Yahoo jointly announced new requirements for anyone sending more than 5,000 emails a day to their users. The rules were to take effect in February 2024. They were, at the time, the biggest change to bulk email deliverability in more than a decade.
The domain owner is baffled. Everything is "correct." Nothing is working. Legitimate transactional mail is being rejected by receiving servers and landing in nobody's inbox.
The standards break more domains than any other wingle thing in email authentication
11/15 of the top UK digital marketing agencies had no DMARC policy at all, three had p=none and only one had it right. If that's the state of the agency's email security, imagine how badly configured their clients are!
This is a productised service that any web or digital agency can start selling this week. It generates £500-1,500 per engagement, takes about 3-4 hours of actual work, and has an extremely high conversion rate from the first conversation because the value is obvious and the price is low. It also leads directly into a £50-150/month recurring monitoring service, which is where the real margin is.
cPanel pricing changed in 2019. Since then, reseller margins have been squeezed year after year. Here's how Enhance compares — from a host that actually operates both.
Three records. Three different jobs. Most guides treat them as a checklist. This one explains what actually happens when each one fails — and why all three must work together.
Shared hosting has historically meant PHP. Enhance changes that with native Node.js app support. Here's what actually works, what has limits, and when Node workloads need a VPS.
Most email deliverability problems aren't content problems. They're infrastructure problems — a PTR mismatch, a DMARC policy set to none, a shared IP on a blacklist. Here's what's actually going wrong and what to do about it.
The team behind FXRM has been running email infrastructure since the early 1990s — from MMDF and Sendmail to Postfix and Zimbra. Here's what actually matters for getting mail delivered.
Most VPS hosts run OpenVZ or Xen. FXRM runs KVM on Proxmox. The difference is more than a product spec — it changes what isolation and resource guarantees actually mean.
A single SMTP server is a single point of failure. This is the actual HAProxy configuration we use for mail relay failover, including health checks, stick tables, and SMTP protocol handling.
