| Data transfer (bandwidth) |
| Whenever a visitor comes to
your site, data is sent from our web servers to
your visitor's computer. This data can be composed
of web pages, images, movies, sound files, programs,
compressed files, or anything else on your site
that can be viewed or downloaded by visitors.
All this requested data added together equals
your total data transfer. The more visitors you
have, the higher data transfer limit you'll need.
You can always buy additional data transfer as
your site grows. As bandwidth usage increase so
does the hosting fee. For total monthly transfers
up to 500 MB the monthly fee is $32.50, from total
monthly transfers between 500 MB and 1 GB the
monthly fee is $70.00. For transfers fees for
monthly transfers over 1GB please contact

messages (e.g., wrongname@your-name.com) and have
them delivered to a specific email account like
you@your-name.com. |
| |
| Disk space for storing files |
| Your web site consists of text,
graphics, sound, or video files that occupy disk
space on a server. If you already have this data
on your computer, check the combined size of those
files to help you select a hosting package with
enough or more disk space. You can always buy
additional disk space as your site grows. |
| |
| Domain name |
| A domain name is also called
a web address. Like a memorable street address,
it can help people find you online. You can register
your own name, your company's name, key words
to describe your business, or even a short phrase
- whatever will make your web address easy to
remember for your friends or customers. Once your
domain is registered, you can build a public web
site at your own web address (e.g., www.my-domain.com)
and create a personalized email address (e.g.,
me@my-domain.com). |
| |
| Email accounts |
| Create multiple email accounts
for yourself, friends and associates with your
own domain name, such as you@your-name.com,
business@your-name.com, and family@your-name.com.
The standard package provides five email accounts
for your domain name through CQL. |
| |
| Email forwards |
| Email forwards enable you to
have email messages redirected to a specific email
account. For example, you can set up the email
account sales@your-name.com to forward
all messages to your account you@your-name.com.
These forwards can be added or deleted at any
time. |
| |
| Email storage |
| When you receive email, the
messages occupy disk space
on a server. The more email you get, the more
storage space you need. CQL Web Hosting includes
25 MB of email storage space per account. |
| |
| Web email |
| While on the road or away from
your desk you can remain connected with your email
via your own web interface. Using the web email
you can send and receive email from anywhere an
Internet connection is available. |
| |
| Error pages |
| You can create
personalized error pages to end visitor confusion
and direct people to new pages. A "404 not found"
page is displayed when a visitor tries to view
a page that doesn't exist or has been moved.
Instead of a generic "page not found" message,
you can tell visitors where an old page has
moved and how to find the new content. A "401
authorization required" page is only displayed
if you have set up a password-protected area
for your site and a visitor enters the wrong
login information. A custom error message can
help visitors enter the correct login information. |

most popular open source database in the world.

heavy-load sites. Using ASP scripting to read
