Free domain names. Does that mean completely free?
Our offer is 100% free. In addition to this, we will also pay the entire
external fee to the domain name registrar. Buying your domain name directly
from the registrars may cost you up to £60 per year. We will pay this for you,
with each new web hosting account.
Your web hosting opportunities sounds great. How do
I pay?
We are able to receive payment by any of the following cards:
Visa || MasterCard || Delta || JCB || Switch || Solo
Simply search for your domain name and select your required web hosting plan.
You will then be sent to our secure online payment-processing page, allowing
you to enter your card details in complete security with WorldPay.
When will my web site be operational?
Your web site will be activated on our servers within 24 hours of your order.
Your domain name will be placed on order with the domain name registrars, which
may take up to 48 hours to propagate through the Internet. Essentially, within
2 days you could be marketing your business to the whole world for next to
nothing.
Do you include email addresses with your web hosting plans?
Our business plans come with our Control Panel, allowing you to set-up
unlimited POP3 email addresses, forwarders and autoresponders. Autoresponders
are great for sending an automated reply to your clients who email you. For
example, you may say you are on holiday and will reply to them when you return
in two weeks.
Will you place advertising banners on my web site?
Most definitely NOT! We believe in offering you the highest quality service for
your online business. We will not place any banners or any other forms of
marketing on your site. Your web site is yours and we will not impose any form
of advertising on it referring to any third party or us. This will mean that
your visitors gain a better first impression of your web site, as a banner free
web site is regarded as quality and your company has made an effort to please
the customer. Advertising banners not only reflect a cheap web site, they slow
the web site down. We will not place any banners on your web site, which will
drastically improve the performance of your web site, making your web site
quicker and easier to navigate.
Can I make money from my web site?
Certainly! We encourage all our clients to make money from their web site and
become Internet Entrepreneurs. The Internet is a mass of information and
business opportunities, which your business will want to exploit. You may
advertise and sell your products or services online, offer subscriptions to
prospective clients or make money through advertising. Whichever way you wish
to make money, we are dedicated to providing you with a web hosting service
that will allow your business to make the most of the potential of the
Internet.
What is the uptime of your servers?
Through our excellent connection and great servers, we are boasting 100%
uptime.
Do you offer free web hosting?
No. We believe in providing high quality web hosting for all our clients.
Introducing free web hosting would include a catch, like banners or an ugly
domain name, e.g. http://mycompany.mywebhost.com. We believe that this form of
web hosting is considered tacky by visitors. If you wish to make an indentation
on the Internet and make money, you must make a good first impression and your
visitors will stay, spending their money. Our charges are next to nothing. In
return you get a completely professional web hosting service and leave a great
impression on your visitors who will return time and again.
What language can I code in?
Our Redhat Linux servers support HTML, DHTML, XHMTL, Chili!Soft ASP, Perl, PHP,
CGI, FrontPage and Python. Our Windows based systems support ASP, ASP.NET
1.1.
Which databases do your business accounts support?
Our standard accounts support MySQL. MySQL is a true multi-user,
multi-threaded SQL (Structured Query Language) database server. SQL is the most
popular database language in the world. We also provide information on how to
convert your Access databases to MySQL. At additional cost we can host your
site on a Windows based system and setup a Microsoft SQL Server database.
Do your servers support PERL?
All web hosting accounts fully support PERL. Your web hosting account will also
include your own private cgi-bin for you to upload your own *.cgi or *.pl
files. If you wish to use additional modules, not included in the basic
selection, then you may upload them directly to your web site via FTP.
Do your servers support SSI?
Server Side Includes (SSI) is fully supported by our Redhat Linux servers.
How do I upload my pages?
You will need to use an ftp. Your Control Panel has ftp access built in or
otherwise you can type in ftp.yourdomainname.com into internet explorer to
access your folders.
I have a domain name already; can I use it on your servers?
If you want to transfer your existing domain name to us please contact us via
email. You must make sure that the admin user for the domain name has the
correct email address with whois so that the transfer can take place
seamlessly.
Dot biz and dot info. What are they?
Previously, publicly available global domain names included .com, .net and
.org. In addition to these domain names, .biz and .info have been released.
Although they are being taken quickly, they offer you the ability to find the
domain name of you choice. For example, www.mycompany.com may be taken, whereas
www.mycompany.biz or www.mycompany.info may still be available.
What is your allowed bandwidth?
Our web hosting accounts are based on an unlimited bandwidth policy. In order
to maintain a fast and efficient web site service for our clients, we will not
let individual users monopolise the server resources, shared by other web
sites. Please see our terms and conditions
for more details. Using excessive bandwidth on our servers is a very rare
occurrence. Any web sites exceeding our bandwidth allowance should be hosted on
a dedicated server capable of supporting their traffic without disrupting the
operation of other web sites.
Do your servers support FrontPage extensions?
Yes.
Are your servers based on Windows or Linux platforms?
We use both WIndows and Linux based servers. This lets us place your site
on the server platform that best suits your requirements. By default
we use Linux.
