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.

Is my site
backed up
and how
often?
It is the

responsibility

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.
You can use
the backup
feature in
your to
control
panel to

your website
files.

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has not been
replaced by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.
