Peak Traffic Demands

Posted by PixelMEDIA
April 23rd, 2010

Everyone here at PixelMEDIA understands the frustration felt by people who could not get through to the Great Appliance Exchange website yesterday, April 22. The fact that the program’s funds were exhausted within hours illustrates the excitement and demand that this program generated in so short a time.

At this point, we know that a very attractive offer, a limited window of opportunity, and a first-come, first-served model created a concentrated and intense online queue that quickly overwhelmed the primary website as well as the backup website and phone systems.

PixelMEDIA is working with all involved parties to improve the communication and timing of these attractive offers to implement added measures that will support the peak traffic demands that are generated.

Christopher Suprock, a Ph.D. candidate at the University of New Hampshire and first-place winner of the 2009 Paul J. Holloway Prize Innovation-to-Market Competition, is profiled in this Seacoast Online feature. The article also cites PixelMEDIA for providing more than $15,000 in communications and web design assistance to help Chris’s company, Exeter-based Suprock Technologies, achieve greater visibility. PixelMEDIA owners Erik Dodier and Thomas Obrey offer their perspective on the importance of supporting the next generation of entrepreneurs and PixelMEDIA’s commitment to giving back to the community.

PixelMEDIA is pleased to announce the redesigned website for the Working Dog Foundation, the fundraising organization for the New Hampshire Police K9 Academy.  Knowing PixelMEDIA’s track record of helping non-profits, and hoping for support from one of their community neighbors on Pease, Chairman Mark Ericson approached PixelMEDIA’s cofounder and CEO Erik Dodier, for pro bono website consulting, design, development, and hosting services back in July of 2009.

So I was asked to write a year in review of 2009.  I was challenged trying to remember all the “awful” things that happened due to the worst recession since the depression, chaos in the financial markets, and a stock market that was about 30-40% off its peak.  These things are usually a recipe for the three most common things we hear when we are having challenges closing new business – “The proposal is sitting on the CFO’s desk”, “I cannot approve that amount like a used to”, and “That person does not work here anymore.”   So, yes, we did have a few of those, but that did not deter us from pushing forward in spite of these challenges.

Web development agency PixelMEDIA built its reputation helping the business community create memorable web experiences. But the redesign of a website for breast cancer patient, survivors, and caregivers was a unique opportunity for the company to put its skills to work for a different kind of community. Founded by Wendy McCoole, BreastCancerStories.org was envisioned as a website that brings people affected by breast cancer together through sharing stories of their experiences, interacting though online profiles, and fostering mutual support.
