I must say this is a unique approach

 

[WebDesignGT]

You're right, I decided to try something new! Get it while you can... bidding ends Friday!

:D

 

[jstep]

lol, i dont mean to ruin your auction
but you can find that for freE?

 

[WebDesignGT]

mmm... no?

Any DECENT host shouldn't have an account like that at least.

If they do, I'm sure it has stipulations - "get 5 user to sign up, post 35 times on our forum" etc etc.

 

[WebDesignGT]

Bidding is almost over. You've got 4 hours! (until midnight tonight).

Go for hosting that's worth it. None of the cheap imitations that'll be around for 3 more months.

 

[Zach]

[WebDesignGT]

Yes - it's an automatic email sent out.

Question?

Do you own your hosting company or are you a reseller?
Where are you out of?

 

[WebDesignGT]

You have unlimited space/bandwidth?

 

[virtualwebc]

The hosting prices on my site are set up different than what you are used to I am sure. I probably should change that around some, we have been currently working on the site all this past week and will be doing so for a few more days.

Those prices are for our business accounts. We not only host traditional websites.
allot of businesses contract through us as virtual private servers.
We store and transfer allot of off site business files,data,and records.
For instance If a Financial Broker company Is in say Texas and they have 5 satellite offices in other states rather than having to pay an IT person 50k a year to maintain and administer a large network and server that they would have to buy lets just say for an example minimum 10k cost to do this for them they pay us. They can upload to our server from there desk top computers and transfer and share data from all 6 offices.
These companies are under annual and semi annual contracts for these types of service.

As far as Unlimited Space and Bandwidth we do not offer this service as a web server like you are use to. This is for companies that do have to go through a screening and evaluation process before they can do this through our company. This is something that does not require a years contract an is used no more than for a month with other stipulations involved.
If a company has to transfer allot of data from one place to another through a pipe line network from one location to another for example If you have a large company that is changing locations but can not aford the lost time while moving there servers they basically dump or copy all there data to one of our super servers as I call them as a temporary solution we do not limit the space because they can not give a exact or close file space number because it is simutaniously changing while on our server. When the move is complete we have separate Higher Speed T1 connections to rapidly dump the updated changed files back to them.
We are a much higher scale hosting company than your average reseller company is.
On average depending on site size for a general shared web hosting server you would only be on a server with approximately 50 to at most 100 other actual sites. We only fill our servers between 50% to 55% of there capability. We have found that this actually costs us less money in the long run it helps maintain the integrity of the server thus giving it a longer life span before total replacement. Because we are not a fly by night operation we can aford to hold out making money in the long run as an investment rather than quick cash.
We also handle all of our own sales we do not use resellers. We have allot of well established clients and over a 88% TOTAL end of the year contract renewal average. We do not find that it is necessary to host sites nor content that could jeapordize every one elses sites on a shared server. I guess we can me considered a little more nosey about what your plans are for the space that you are leasing. We also object to illegal content of any kind being placed on one of our servers.
We hold our selves to very high standards in supplying our clients with the most exceptional service and reliability.

We now have offices in four states AL, GA, TX, CO. and looking to open in FL within the next 6 months. We own our own hosting facilities, own over 100 rack servers and do not rent space from a large network warehouse like some.

You're going to have to work on your English (sentence structure, grammar) a little more before I would ever take you seriously.

Also, for having so many offices/clients, it's a little interesting that your domain was only created last October.

I could care less if you take me seriously or not over grammar.

Since you ask. As far as the domain name is concerned it was re registered through a different registering company when it was renewed and complete ownership of the company was bought out from other partners.

If you are so inclined in proving and disproving someone's post why don't you research the incorporation record and articles of incorporation if you are nosey enough to need an exact date the business began.

Why do you even make a comment to an offer for hosting do have nothing better to do than just make careless remarks? don't even bother waiting my time and your to answer that.

Enough said. I wish I was a moderator to stamp out this joke.
