Free Domain Aliases!

Domain aliases allow you to point multiple domain names to the same web hosting package. For e.g. suppose yourdomain.com was the primary domain name for the hosting package and you also wanted to point yourdomain.net (additional TLDs) or yourdomains.com ( mis-spellings) or someothername.com (additional brandnames) to the same hosting package - then you would specify these additional domain names as domain aliases. The important point to note is that the way a domain alias functions - the visitor is not redirected to the primary domain name - the domain name that he or she typed in the browser continues to be displayed as-is through out the visit.

With Plesk Control Panel

Domain Access with and without "www"

Our web servers are configured to allow domain access with and without the "www." in front of the domain name i.e. http://www.yourdomain.com and http://yourdomain.com will both work perfectly.

FTP Features

File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a software standard for transferring computer files between machines with widely different operating systems. With our hosting packages, you can use any FTP based client to upload data / content to the web space included in your hosting package.

Unlike some hosting companies which restrict the amount of data that you can upload and download on a daily basis, with ALL our hosting packages - you get the ability to upload and download data 24x7, unlimited number of times. Add to this, you get the ability to add up to 100 FTP users. Using the FTP Manager in the hosting control panel you can do all of the following:

Add / Delete FTP Users

Restrict Access of a FTP User to a particular folder

Set Disk Quota Limitations on a per FTP User Basis

Change Passwords

Suspend / unsuspend access of FTP Users

You are also given access to the Complete Log of Actions performed by each user i.e.

Private Folder for Storing Sensitive Data

A private folder is included with every hosting package which allows you to store data and files securely and quickly via FTP. This folder is outside your web directory i.e. not directly exposed on the internet via HTTP and has special security permissions such that no user, other than the FTP Users specified by you, has read or write access to the data in this folder. By creating sub-folders within this private folder and restricting Access of FTP Users to particular sub-folders, you can share files securely and reduce or eliminate the need to copy data on disks for overnight delivery, thus saving both time and money. Our FTP servers allow you to resume partial transfers where they left off, so even if you get disconnected or end a session, you can always reconnect and resume the transfer where you left off at a later date or time.

Web Traffic Reporting

A powerful web traffic reporting tool is included within your control panel. This tool generates web based reports that provide insightful information about the users visiting your website, such as, the number of unique visitors, no of hits, avg duration spent by each user on your website, most viewed entry and exit pages, search engines, keyphrases and keywords used to find your site etc.

Using the Web Statistics Manager in the control panel, you have :

ability to password protect your web based traffic reports to ensure that only authorised people have access to this data option to automatically delete web log files after generating the web based traffic reports to save disk space

ability to disable the generation of the web traffic reports

ability to customize your web traffic reports by setting the following parameters

Skip Hosts - Specify hosts / IP addresses from which all data (hits/page views etc), should not be taken into consideration while generating statistics

Skip Files - Specify filenames / directories which should be ignored while generating statistics

Only Files - This is the opposite of the 'Skip Files' option. The option is used to include in stats, only accesses to URLs that match the specified filenames / directories

Not Page List - List of file extensions which must be counted as 'Hit only' and not as a 'Page View'

Password Protect your Directories

Directory Protection is an easy-to-use web based tool included in the control panel that allows you create as many password protected areas as you want without requiring any programming. This allows you to store sensitive material online and give browser based access to such content / data to authorized users only. A password dialogue box will automatically popup in the browser when an attempt is made to access the password protected directory or any of its sub-directories.

Customizable Error Pages

When a visitor attempts to connect to a web site and an HTTP error occurs, a generic message is sent back to the visitor's browser with a brief description of what happened during the attempt to establish a connection. For example, if a visitor attempts to connect to a page that no longer exists on the web site , an HTTP error will be returned in the form of an HTML page that contains the statement "The requested URL was not found on this server".

You can use the "Custom Errors Pages" section of the Control Panel to customize HTTP errors that are sent to clients when web server errors occur.

You can customize the following HTTP errors:

401 - Authorization Failed
403 - Permission Denied
404 - File / Resource Not Found
406 - Resource Not Acceptable
500 - Internal Error

The customization options allow you to redirect the user to a local URL / remote URL or specify a text / HTML message on the occurance of the specified HTTP error.

Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology protects data by creating a secure connection between a client and a server using encryption enabled by a server's SSL Certificate.

Database Source Names (DSN), are data structures used to describe a connection to a database. Using the control panel, you can add up to 100 DSNs for connecting to Microsoft Access, Excel, SQL Server, MySQL or Oracle.

Unlimited Microsoft Access Databases

You can deploy unlimited number of Microsoft Access Databases within any windows hosting package. We have created a Private Database Folder within your web space where you should upload/create all Microsoft Access Databases. This folder has been placed outside your primary web folder for security reasons, so that visitors to your website do not get direct access to your databases.

Please note that for performance and reliability reasons, we strongly recommend the use of Microsoft SQL Server for the deployment of production-quality web sites/applications. Microsoft itself has stated the following - "Microsoft Access was designed as a single-user desktop database, and not for server use.
When multiple, concurrent users make requests of a Microsoft Access database, unpredictable results may occur.
