Web hosting is the provision of the computing
facilities on which a web site is located. Synonymous
to paying a mortgage or rent, hosting is a necessary monthly
or yearly expense that offers a "home for your web site". Absolute
internet provides a range of web hosting services which suit
most applications
from a simple "we're here" web page, to complex interactive
e-commerce sites.
Our high-performance
web servers also offer space and bandwidth to companies who
want to create and maintain a web presence of
their own. See our hosting
policies for restrictions.
When selecting a host for your site there are a
number of issues you need to consider: |
| |
• Your Requirements: Space
& Special Hosting Requirements, e.g. database hosting, secure
servers, etc.
• Available Bandwidth:
This determines the speed at which information from your
site can be passed to users.
• Reliability: A
server that goes down is nothing more than a "closed
shop" for
you and your visitors. Absolute
guarantees 99% "up time" when hosting on our servers, with
monitoring 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
• Technical Support: For
example, if you accidentally wipe your site from the server
when trying to
FTP updates, our technical support team acts as a safety
net in the recovery of your site.
General notification of server
activity and timely answers to your
questions are also benefits of reliable Technical
Support.

Your hosting is an
ongoing yearly cost associated with your web site. Please
ensure that you have asked all the right questions (in
relation
to the issues listed above)
for adequate hosting and maintenance of your web site.
