We developed quite a few mods for SMF and can develop a custom one for you. We have knowledgeable tech support and wonderful customer service. Make the right decision and don't get cheated by cheap hosting providers.

Some of the hosting features we offer:

Others offer one-click installation of SMF. We offer that too but we can make it even easier by doing the installation for YOU manually, which is much cleaner and more reliable than 1-clicks.

Advanced Backup Package


Why?

Have you ever thought of backing up your site? No?
Now, is the time to do something about it! Whether you deleted or overwrote some
files or just want to restore an older version of your site or database.

Currently we run an everyday back for all sites and it's not easy to restore each
individual ones from the complete backup. That's why we are offering our advanced
package.

What does it cost?

The prices start at $3 per Gigabyte per month. This is calculated on the actual
size of all your files and databases.

What do I need to do?

Please, fill out the short form below to get an estimate from us or to request
a custom schedule and finally start sleeping at night.

How?

Our advanced backup package offers the ability to restore files of your site from
two weeks ago and creates a full backup of everything you have on your site every
week. The backups are located on another server for increased reliability.

The restoration procedure should take a few minutes after you submitted a ticket
or might take longer depending on the size of your files.

The backup schedule is the following:

  • five days a week – differential backup (all files that got changed since the
    last full backup)
  • week one – full backup of the site and databases
  • five days a week – differential backup (all files that got changed since the
    last full backup)
  • week two – full backup
  • restart the schedule

We can also create a reasonable custom backup schedule for you if you'd like to
request something that will work better. Use the form below to describe what you'd
like to have.

VPS hosting vs Managed Shared Hosting

A virtual private server is a technique of partitioning a physical server into multiple virtual computers in such a way that each has its own resources as though it were a separate physical machine. Each VPS runs its own complete operating system.

A perfect application for a VPS is by somebody who would like to experiment with more power than shared hosting can provide. Some people might be interested in learning how the server software works or have a site that just needs dedicated resources. Whatever the reason might be VPS is a cool thing to play with.

The data center we use utilizes the following technologies:

  1. Parallels® Virtuozzo Containers management
  2. Intel® Xeon® Processors and premium server hardware

Linux VPS packages include:

  • Full Root Server Accesss
  • Nightly Off-Server Backups
  • Fantastico and XController
  • CPanel/WHM
  • ServerSecure Service
  • Intel® Xeon® Processors

Windows VPS packages include:

  • Administrator Access (RDP)
  • Nightly Off-Server Backups
  • Windows 2003 Server
  • Parallels® Plesk Panel
  • ASP and .NET Support
