AKIS Full Ecommerce Packages Now Back On Offer!

akis — Sun, 18 Mar 2012 00:00:02 +0000

Given the continued requests were receiving to do full ecommerce package deals again, and feedback received from others on the WooCommerce ecommerce plugin (a commercial offshoot of JigoShop), we are now offering full ecommerce package deals once more – see the AKIS Ecommerce Website Package page.

This WooCommerce ecommerce package appealed to us since it is built to run on WordPress which we’ve specialised in for some years now and also, being built on WordPress it also allows a more visually appealing ecommerce site than some of the other ecommerce systems out there.

Their info site is at woothemes.com/woocommerce/ and they have been in the WP business a long time with a good reputation. They also have a wide range of payment gateway add-on options and other plugin-modules including PayPal Pro, Google Checkout, Sagepage, Worldpay, Google Product Feed, etc .

Please contact us for further details, or complete our online enquiry/quotation request form.

Email Bounces and Blocklists Recurrence + Fix

akis — Sat, 25 Feb 2012 10:31:07 +0000

Further to past announcements on email bounces and hotmail/live.com blocks, some clients may again be encountering one or both of these issues again on outgoing emails (due to your recipients blocking your email as Spam). As before, this is a case of of your server being wrongly included on a 3rd Party CBL blocklist/blacklist or, on the hotmail.live.com internal blocklist.

What is AKIS doing to fix this in the short term? – We are processing the relevant delisting procedures where available and await their action in clearing us off the list.

What is AKIS doing to fix this in the longer term? - We are currently in the process of making changes to our system which will enable all accounts to use a new and ‘clean’ IP address for outgoing email.

But be on notice if you send spam! – We WILL terminate your account if you are found to be spamming and causing or contributing to this problem. See our announcement reminding of this.

UPDATE 27 Feb 7.00am – The long term fix via a new clean mailserver IP address is now in place and email being delivered normally again to all recipients (including hotmail/live.com).
