Web Site
Hosting Services
Jo Landers offers fast, reliable hosting services through the same ISP she has been using for her own site for several years.
All hosting accounts include a full-featured, easy to use control panel, allowing clients access to a wide range of services, including setting up email accounts and autoreplies, performing backups, and installing any of 50+ built-in free scripts to enhance their web sites. MYSQL, CGI, PERL, POP email, and both Webalizer and AWStats are included in all hosting packages.
For clients who are also contracting for web services, hosting through Jo Landers, while not required, can provide savings. Since she is familiar with her hosting capabilities, set-up and configuration time may be reduced and extra features more easily added. In addition, she is easily able to monitor site statistics, error logs, etc. during the site development process, and provide additional services such as resetting lost passwords.
Hosting Plans
All plans include cPanelX, site statistics, access to over 50 Fantastico scripts (including blogs, content management, chatrooms, image galleries, shopping carts and site builders with templates), phpMyAdmin and CGI and PERL support.
Storage and Bandwidth - What Do You REALLY Need?
Budget Hosting
150 mb storage, 250 mb bandwidth/month
Up to 5 email accounts and 5 databases.
$25/year paid annually
For smaller sites or clients who may not have a website but do have a domain registered. Allows use of the domain name as part of your email address (you@yourdomain.com), reinforcing branding of your business name. Registering your own domain and using it for email also keeps your email address completely in your control, avoiding problems with using a free or ISP provided address which may change without warning. Enough space for a few email accounts and a small website, or divide up into several email accounts for users who routinely download email to their computers. Includes anti-spam software, a webmail interface to check your email from any computer connected to the internet, and a control panel to add or modify accounts, set up 'out of the office' automatic replies, etc.
Basic Hosting
500 mb storage, 2.0 gb bandwidth/month
Set up as many email accounts, databases and subdomains as you want.
$50/year paid annually
For larger sites or clients with greater email needs. Space to set up several email accounts with plenty of room for large attachments, and host a site that receives thousands of visitors each month.
Business Hosting
2 gb storage, 20 gb bandwidth/month
Set up as many email accounts, databases and subdomains as you want.
Add up to two additional domains for no extra charge.
$100/year paid annually
Plenty of storage space and bandwidth for streaming video and audio, e-commerce and several email accounts and databases. Includes the ability to add two additional domains and unlimited subdomains, managed under a single control panel interface. If you own more than one site, this account lets you host and manage them for a single annual fee (note that this is NOT recommended if you manage sites for multiple clients, as they may need their own separate control panel access).
Click here for a CPanel demo (login: demo, password: accountpass1) to check out the included scripts and other features (note that not all features are available under the budget account).
Site Transfers and Other Services
If your current site uses CPanelX with the full backup and restore option, I can probably tranfer all information (including site files, databases, statistics and email settings) for no charge. If you have another control panel interface, I may be able to transfer the site files and databases but you could lose your historical statistics and/or need to set up your email accounts again yourself.
If you need 24/7 tech support, manage sites for multiple clients, or prefer monthly credit card billing, go directly to the source. This site is hosted by hostgator, and I can honestly recommend them. If your current site is not using cPanelX and it's important to keep all your historical data and settings, they are familiar with a wide range of hosting interfaces and offer more comprehensive site transfer services, often with no charge.
