- How soon will my account be set up and ready
for use?
Account orders are placed in a queue and are processed in the order
in which they are received. Your site can be uploaded to our servers
as soon as your domain name resolves to our server dns, usually
within 24-48 hours.

Absolutely. Whether you're a day person or a night owl, your site is
available for you to update.

- I see some hosts offering "unlimited
bandwidth". Why don't you offer this?
Technically speaking, there is no such thing as "unlimited
bandwidth." Someone has to pay for the traffic somewhere - and
if you check the fine print of some service agreements from
companies who claim to offer unlimited bandwidth, you'll probably
find that they do charge for traffic over a certain amount. We
dispense with the fine print.

- Do you host Adult sites, warez sites or sites

- Is my site backed up and how often?
It is the clients
responsibility to do all back ups of their site. If, in the
unfortunate event, something happens to your files, it is your
responsibility to have a local copy of your files.
We are
NOT held liable in any way for any files, money, time, effort, etc...
lost due to this unfortunate event. Furthermore, if your files are
lost, we will attempt to restore them as a gesture of good faith, but
make no promises what so ever about whether the files will be brought
back successfully or not. Again, back ups are the client's
responsibility.

- Where should I put CGI scripts for my domain?
All CGI scripts should be uploaded to the cgi-bin folder, for your domain. Be sure to follow the
instructions for the script you are uploading regarding setting
permissions on the files and folders you create, as they vary from
script to script
[Back to top]
- I uploaded my files, but I don't see my page?
If our default "Welcome to the Future home of", index.html,
has not been replaced by another index page, then anyone going to
domainname.com will still see that page instead of some other home
page. This is the order in which the web server looks for a page to
put up as the "home" page: >DirectoryIndex: index.html, index.shtml
Just delete the index.html file and anything
after it in this list will then come up automatically. Notice that
"home.shtml" is NOT on the list and so will not show up as
your home page. You would need to rename it.
