Welcome
Aboard, Nathan!
by Charles Oropallo, CharlesWorks owner
 I
feel compelled to say that we must be doing the right things for our
clients here at CharlesWorks! We have experienced unprecedented growth
through the worst economic times I have seen in my lifetime. Those who
choose to become our clients quickly come to understand that we really
do want to help them.
 Part
of continuing to provide our clients with the highest quality support in
their web endeavors is the hiring of our latest team member - shown to
the right - Nathan Wesley. Here
is the text of a press release that ran in the Monadnock
Ledger, a local Peterborough, NH newspaper:
Peterborough based web hosting and design company CharlesWorks.net hired Nathan Wesley of Swanzey, NH full time. Nathan graduated from the Northern Kentucky University in 2009 Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Arts majoring in Graphic Design and minoring in Theater. Nathan is also a lead singer of The Hotel Dogs, playing gigs at E.F. Lane lounge in Keene as well as other locations. Nathan expects to be kept very busy at CharlesWorks.net, which handles nearly 1,800 web sites. CharlesWorks.net is believed to be the only web hosting company with its infrastructure physically located within the Monadnock Region, and therefore truly a local business.
Our business growth and desire to provide the best possible client
support dictated the need for more expertise.
Nathan is a great fit here and we are proud and delighted that he chose
to become part of our team.
Nathan's drawing talents developed early for him, culminating in a
lifelong hobby of creating motorcycle drawings. Many are online at http://NathanWesley.com
and we hope you will visit his site as well to really grasp how talented
he is. Nathan also
represents CharlesWorks in the Elm City BNI chapter (Business Networking
International http://bninh.com/viewChapter/122951).
He holds the classification of Web Hosting-Design in that chapter. They
meet Wednesday mornings at 7:30 at Langdon Place of Keene. |

Scam Alert
This may look familiar - we felt
it was worth repeating as the number of people falling prey to
email scams and phishing attempts continues to rise. The scammers and the spammers
continue to find more creative methods to plague the Internet.
Following are a few tips to prevent yourself from becoming a
victim of Internet Fraud:
|
1. |
Never respond to or open any
unsolicited email offers. |
|
2. |
Never enter any personal information
on a website if the website is not secure (look for
https// in the browser). |
|
3. |
Don't give out your email address
unless you know exactly how it will be used. |
|
4. |
The safest way to make purchases over
the internet is by credit card because you can dispute
fraudulent charges with your card carrier. |
|
5. |
If an offer seems too good to be true
it probably is. |

About
Charles Oropallo
When about 6 or 7 years old, I began my interest in electronics as a hobby when my grandmother let me play with flashlights. Naturally, I took them apart to see how they worked. I've been taking things apart ever since, although the equipment has become a bit more complex.
In November of 1977, in my mid twenties, I authored and implemented an online Bulletin Board System (BBS) called Access-80 (photo of the actual system at
http://Access-80.com). It operated on a Radio Shack TRS-80 Model I, Level II microcomputer. There were only a handful of such systems online for public use on the entire planet at that time.
I founded CharlesWorks in June of 1998 to provide reliable and affordable hosting solutions. |
