3 Types of Plans- Overview

Shared Hosting: These are basic plans suited to small organizations with simple web sites and single domains. Space options available.

VPS (Virtual Private Server) - a solution between shared hosting and a dedicated server. Offers you more control and the ability to host multiple domains. Good for bigger sites, larger databases and e-commerce apps. More than 1 VPS to a physical server.

Dedicated Servers - No one else shares your server. You can install applications, have root access, run multiple domains and large, data intensive web sites.

VPS Hosting Plans (Virtural Private Server - Windows/Linux or FreeBSD)
 

What is a VPS? VPS stands for virtual private server. VPS's were first developed about a decade ago for companies who needed the power and control of a dedicated web server with the affordability of a shared hosting solution. Virtual Private Servers are ideal for businesses who want to strengthen their Web site's functionality and performance without increasing their IT staff and infrastructure.

With a VPS, our expert staff manages the hardware, core software applications and Internet connection, while you manage your specific applications and websites. Each Virtual Private Server allows you to host multiple websites, run web-based applications and tools and have an unlimited number of e-mail accounts. You can even offer hosting to other companies and individuals. As a scalable, managed solution, the VPS decreases your time to market, allowing you to focus on your core competencies and allocate resources on other projects. With our Tier-1 data center and 24 hour site monitoring, phone and e-mail support, we do the work and you reap the benefits

Some of the uses of our VPS v3 include:

• Host and mangage multiple web sites/domains and e-mail accounts (sub-hosting)
