Is there a charge to upgrade from one level to the next?
No there are no extra charges to upgrade your hosting plan, we want our customers to succeed and moving up a plan means that is just what is happening. Also there are no set up fees for any of our standard plans.
How many unique IP addresses can a virtual server be provided with?
Clients can place as many sites as they would like on a virtual IP. If you would like to have a static IP for your domain there is a $10 monthly charge.
What types of Shopping Cart Solutions do you offer?
We do not supply shopping carts. We provide (upon request) MivaŽ, to provide the shopping cart for your Web site. Visit Miva to learn more. We can guide you to using their auto shopping cart feature which can easily be customized for your site.
Transfer rate is the cost per Gigabyte of information that your site serves out to the web browsers. To try and simplify this into a more broad understanding, think out it rather than being data transferred, to your use of electricity in your house.
We track bandwidth usage every month. If your site is over the monthly plan allocation, bandwidth overage will be applied to your monthly statement. The reason for offering this option is because some clients will pay the overage because they might be experiencing spiked traffic from a recent listing in a busy search engine or links site. We also offer you the option to upgrade to a higher plan to avoid paying the overage. It cost nothing to change plans.
We rarely have an outage via our carriers. Even if one of them has line trouble, all of our websites are still accessible via another route. In case there is a server problem, a technician is on site 24x7, while a senior tech is on call 24x7. Check the Network Graphs
Our entire network is backed up regulary. Should a system fail, we have all the latest files for it and we will be able to restore it. Customors are responsible for backing their own servers on dedicated plans.
If one of our servers fail, we would restore the websites into a spare server that is kept on location. We have spare equipment and servers available immediately.
What is the difference between "Virtual" and "Dedicated" hosting?
If you choose a virtual server plan, you will be sharing the Web server with several other users. We will manage the server operations. Each virtual plan is allowed a set number of domains. On dedicated plans, you have your own Web server. You have full access to the root directory of your server and you are free to host an unlimited number of domains.
Number of sites that can be hosted under one account?
This depends on the plan you choose. In Virtual Hosting, the number of domains allowed corresponds to the number of web sites you may host on the plan.
In Dedicated Hosting, we provide you with an unlimited number of domains. You can host as many web sites as possible on the dedicated server. This is great for resellers or larger customers. Upgrading your plan to accommodate more bandwidth as your business expands, is never a problem and is free of charge.
Uploading using Microsoft FrontPage and the extensions
Using the extensions or "Web Bots" with your web site is fully supported
by LoweAndBehold. If you are using the web bots, make sure you use
the publish command to upload to the server. If you try to FTP those
files that use the web bots, the files may become corrupted and
the effectiveness of those web bots will be hindered. If you are
using FrontPage to create a site without the bots, you can still
use the publish command.
1.Start FrontPage Explorer
2.Open web
3.At web address type, type in your IP address we issued you
4.Click list webs, then double click on root web
5.You will then be prompted for username and password; enter them
6.You will then see an outline of your site with the files you transferred
In order for the publish feature in FrontPage to work
your sites DNS and
your ISP must first propagate.
How many clients are put on to one virtual server?
The number of clients placed on a server is dependent upon the amount of space used by each one. All our servers are monitored to perform at their utmost capacity bringing high speed and reliability to each site on a particular server.
Absolutely. Microsoft FrontPage provides a quick, effective way to create and manage professional-quality Internet sites without programming. It makes it easy for new users and professional Web developers alike to build and maintain great-looking, professional-quality Web sites in no time. If you wish to use FrontPage just sign up for the NT server and the FrontPage extensions will be added to your service at no additional cost.
You, along with other customers, can place your Web site on one of our high performance Web servers and establish your presence on the Internet with your own unique domain name such as www.yourcompany.com. This is a very intelligent and cost effective alternative to hosting your own web site without the expense of purchasing and maintaining your own server.
Our shared hosting environment gives you the benefits of high performance servers, high bandwidth connectivity that can seamlessly grow with your needs, pre-installed software and guaranteed reliability, all at a small fraction of the cost of doing it yourself.
