Internet Hosting
|
| One of the biggest decisions you will make once
you have decided to have a web site is where you will host it.
Basically you have two choices: Host your web site yourself, or
outsource it to a hosting company. More and more individuals
and companies are choosing to hire someone else to host their
web site. |

- Your own domain name - We not only support you having
your own domain name, but we offer you to a FREE domain
name. That's right!! We pay the first year registration for your
domain name so you no longer have to worry about it.
- Generous Disk Space - Some of our competitors will
offer you a great monthly price and then limit your disk space.
This way they can charge you a lot of money for additional disk
space, or worse, make you upgrade to their more expensive
packages.
- Unlimited Bandwidth - One of our greatest benefits
from economies of scale is that we can offer you unlimited
bandwidth whereas our competitors place limits. You do not have
to worry about expensive overages or unexpected cancellations.
Consumers should always avoid companies that limit bandwidth
because the fees can really add up quickly. Do you really want
to pay a $500 monthly bill because someone decided to hack your
web site?
- Free FrontPage Support - Prairie 21 continually
delivers the kind of support FrontPage developers need to be
successful.
- 24/7 Emergency Support - Unlike some of our
competitors who will not even publish their phone numbers, we
provide our customers with a toll-free support number.
- No Minimum Contracts - We believe in our products and
services and do not feel the need to lock our customers into
long term contracts for a good price. Any company that makes you
sign a contract for web hosting services probably is not worth
doing business with.
- Quick Setup - We make every effort to have your
account up and running within 24 hours, and often deliver within
a few hours when you order your web site during our normal
business hours. If you order outside of our normal hours
your account will be setup on the next business day. Some
services take days to accomplish this.
- Privacy - Tired of unwanted solicitations? We do not
share your information with any service without your express
permission. Unlike, others we do not even share your information
with InterNic when we register your domain name, unless you
request otherwise.
- Data Integrity - Your data is maintained on
ultra-fast RAID arrays making the chance of a disk failure very
remote. But for that extra piece of mind, we perform daily
backups of your data to insure that if you accidently delete a
file, we can restore it for you. In fact, most restores are even
done free of charge to you.
- SPEED - Our servers are fast and our network is even
faster. A lot of companies attempt to either place too many
virtual sites on one server, making your site delivery time
slow. Worse, some companies are using common DSL/Cable
connections for networking. At Prairie 21, you are getting true
redundant OC-12 (622 Mbps) connectivity. To help you compare
networks we have provided you with a little chart:

- Scalability - You can upgrade your plans at any time
and only pay the difference in setup costs. No penalties or
hassles unlike so many other companies.

Benefits of outsourcing you web hosting
|
| Hosting your own web site means extensive
expense for computer equipment, staffing and communications/networking
connections. You will need to consider security issues, scalability
and maintenance expenses Choosing a hosting company
simplifies your life and lowers your financial commitment in all of
these areas. This can mean the difference between a site that
is profitable and one that is a drain on your resources
|
|
| Prairie 21 can provide you with internet
hosting that will meet your needs now and into the future as well.
