Plesk Hosting Server Migration Scheduled for October 2025
Dear Widomaker Hosting Customers,
This is to inform you of a planned Plesk server migration scheduled to take place during the month of October, 2025. We are proactively upgrading our Plesk web and email hosting infrastructure to provide you with enhanced performance, security, and long-term stability.
Is your hosted email domain ready for Google’s & Yahoo’s DMARC requirements?
Starting in February of 2024, Google, Yahoo, and others, will begin requiring that DMARC, SPF, and DKIM, be properly set up on your domain name, if you will be sending email, from your email domain, to them. DMARC, SPF, and DKIM, help authenticate email senders by verifying that the emails came from the domain that they claim to be from.
You can check your domain name, to see if DMARC has already been set up, by using this DMARC Check tool.
Contact us, to set up an appointment, to review your domain, and make sure DMARC is properly set up, so you don’t have trouble sending email to those providers beginning in 2024.

If you haven’t read the initial announcement, please read it here, first.
In preparation for the Upcoming Plesk Hosting Server Migration & Upgrade (March 2019), we would like to let you know about several important things related to the server migration…
Upcoming Plesk Hosting Server Migration & Upgrade (March 2019)
During the month of March (2019), we plan to migrate our Plesk web hosting servers to a new server provider on updated hardware. We will also be upgrading the server software, including the operating system, LAMP software (including PHP), and the Plesk Control Panel.
DNS Server Migration
Widomaker will be migrating our DNS servers to a new DNS server provider, over the next several days. This should not have an effect on any customers. However, we are posting this notice in case of any unexpected side-effects.
Cox Communications Internet Outage 7/18/2017
Widomaker’s services are all up and running, at the present time. However, some folks who use Cox Communications for their Internet connection, in Hampton Roads, may be experiencing an Internet outage affecting their ability to open websites or check e-mail.
