Features of our web hosting package


The hosting we offer is all Unix based and consists of the following features and options. We have an extremely flexible approach to web hosting and we feel that you should not pay for facillities that you do not use or require. Conversely if you require a particular feature this can be added to your basic account.

Each account has all of the following features (except the one page account). Please see the hosting costs page for a summary and price list of the hosting accounts we offer.

Unix Web Space Each of our hosting accounts offer an amount of disk space to use for your website, databases and e-mail. The amount of space is geneorous, however if you run out of space, extra space can be added to your account at any time or your account type can be upgraded.
Mailboxes A POP3 mailbox is an area on our servers which allows incoming mail to be stored until it is downloaded via an e-mail client. All the accounts come with a set number of POP3 mailboxes. This will allow you to set up e-mail accounts for all your staff or departments. If required more mailboxes can be added to your account.
Autoresponders An auto responder replys to incoming e-mails automatically. The reply can be customized via the control panel at any time. For example, they can be used to respond to incoming sales requests. Each account has a number of auto-responders that can be added to at any time
