- How much bandwidth am I allowed for my domain.
We do not have a hard limit for virtual web hosting
users. Typically we would not recommend more than
1 GB/mth. If you are running an extremely popular
web site, we would recommend u take our dedicated
web hosting. No MP3s, Warez, AVI, all audio or video
streaming on virtual hosting as this takes up extensive
CPU and bandwidth and will affect other users of the
servers.
- Why does some companies offer unlimited web, email
and bandwidth?
Try uploading your entire hard disk into your web
site and you will know why. Our web and email space
as well as bandwidth are allocated to provide maximum
performance for our users. There is no such things
as unlimited , each component needs to be carefully
measured and limited so that all resources are kept
optimum and minimized bottlenecks.
- I have seen S$1/year Hosting packages, why should
I sign up with you?
We have been hosting since 1997 and have seen lots
of competitors fold up. If your web site is unimportant
to you. You can try those packages. See you in 1 year's
time. Our advice on the Internet is, if the offer
is too good to be true, it isn't.
