Our shared plans are typically suitable for clients traffic needs less than about 1000 unique visitors per day. Beyond that, you may want to consider a dedicated server. However, this is a very general rule of thumb and there are MANY exceptions (particularly if you have a website that requires extensive database use, high bandwidth or storage needs (ie media-heavy sites), or high security needs.) We will of course consult with you on which web hosting plan best fits you. In general, we tend to suggest that you start small and grow into more robust hosting plans as your traffic and load dictate.
Web Hosting Plans:
We offer both shared and dedicated hosting plans. Our shared plans are typically suitable for clients traffic needs less than about 1000 unique visitors per day. Beyond that, you may want to consider a dedicated server. However, this is a very general rule of thumb and there are MANY exceptions (particularly if you have a website that requires extensive database use, high bandwidth or storage needs (ie media-heavy sites), or high security needs.) We will of course consult with you on which web hosting plan best fits you. In general, we tend to suggest that you start small and grow into more robust hosting plans as your traffic and load dictate.
Bare Bones Web Hosting Plan
Bare bones plans are designed for special uses (such as directing a domain name to a specific page within another site. They do not provide any stats, email, databases, or much web space/bandwidth. As such, they are not suitable for hosting an actual full-blown website.
Business Web Hosting Plan: $30/yr
This is our entry level plan for ‘normal’ web hosting. It allows for everything that a typical website would need for moderate usage:
- Up to 1GB of disk space
- Up to 5GB of disk transfer (bandwidth)
- Daily backup of all files and databases
- Email Access (POP3, SMTP, and Webmail). All the features you’d expect are included: email aliases, autoresponders, mail forwarding, mailing lists, etc. There are no limits on email accounts, provided they fit within the disk space and bandwidth limits.
- mySQL Database support
- Full control panel access so that you can access/manage all aspects of your web hosting and email accounts
Professional Web Hosting Plan: $45/yr.
- This plan includes everything in the Business plan, plus the these additional features:
- Up to 4GB of disk space
- Up to 10GB of disk transfer (bandwidth)
- Cron Jobs (if your website needs things to happen based on regular recurrence such as emailing users every night, or something like that you need this.)
Add-ons
Dedicated IP and Secure Server (SSL) Certificates: +$35/mo.
- If your site requires secure server technology, you’ll need a secure server certificate (and as such, you will also need a dedicate IP address.) We’ll advise you if you need this, but in general, any sites that use ecommerce or transmit any sort of sensitive information will need this. Note that this fee is on top of the hosting plan fees.
