WEBSITES

DOWNFALLS TO THE CURRENT TREND IN HOSTING	THE NEW IMAGE DIFFERENCE
• Restricted data transfer and storage capacity for a nominal fee. • Poorly performing websites are forking out a sum of cash to no effect. • If you are using less than your allocated resources (ie. data transfer), that resource is passed on to someone else who may be exceeding their allocation of that resource (Plus they are probably being charged a premium for using that extra resource allocation!). • The hosting company is required to purchase additional hardware to meet the growing requirements of the allocated storage capacity (Which, if your website is smaller than the allocated volume, leads to wasted disk space). These costs are inevitably passed on to you, the consumer. • But above all, if you website becomes an over-night success (That is, for some or other reason you start generating a large volume of traffic), these restricted resource allocations can damage your reputation by preventing people from accessing your website!	• We will only charge you for the data transfer (Uploads and downloads) that your site uses as well as the storage space (Size of your website) that your website takes up. Furthermore, you will NOT be billed more than R300 (Excluding VAT) for our hosting services, even if your usage exceeds that amount. • We also treat all our customers equally. Everyone receives a state-of-the-art Ubuntu Linux Virtual Web Server including an administrative Control Panel (Virtualmin/Webmin) and additional tools that allow you to monitor and analyse traffic and website performance. • Each user is allocated an FTP account by default, or use Subversion to keep changes to your website under control. • We also do not limit the number of MySQL databases or users you can create.

SERVERS

CLOUD SERVERS

We can move your old onsite server to a new cloud server service over a weekend.

THE MAIN BENEFITS OF USING CLOUD SERVERS

To put it simply, cloud servers mean virtual servers which run on cloud computing environment.
That is why very often Cloud Servers are referred to as Virtual Dedicated Servers (VDS).
Cloud servers run as software-independent units.
This means that a cloud server has all the software it requires to run and does not depend on any centrally-installed software.
