Here are our Virtual Server standard features. Items in red lettering are only available in our Virtual Server Solution Package.

1.) 5 Page Website Design (available with Solution Package only)

Elite Web Design and Marketing, Elite Hosts design counterpart, will provide you with 3 designed web pages with up to 1,500 hundred words and about your business and up to ten images, both provided by you.

2.) Basic "Keyword" Programming (available with Solution Package only)

Your web page will be enhanced with "Keywords", provided by you, that you believe your prospects/clients will most likely use when searching the Internet for you, or your type of products/services. See our Additional Services for a more advanced and powerful type of keyword enhancment.

3.) http://www.yourname.com

Lets start with a brief definition of a Domain Name. A Domain on the Internet is relative to a specific business or entity. It is a name that signifies you, your company, and/or your organization. Your Web address will appear as http://www.yourname.com. There are many benefits of having your own Domain Name, such as a short address with which prospects, clients, and/or friends can find you with.

Our Virtual Domain account is accomplished using special configuration settings on our servers we call virtual addressing.

4.) 20 Megabytes of Web Space (MB)

Each file that you create, be it an Hyper-Text Markup Language (HTML) document or a picture/graphic file, requires a certain amount of space to hold the information. This space is measured in bits, bytes, and megabytes.

The average size of a website here on Elite Host is under 2 megabytes, so you may have plenty of room left over to use for other website ideas you may have!


5.) 5,000 Megabytes of Throughput Per Month

In order to ensure your website loads quickly at all times, we do meter the usage of our Internet connection. Having an extremely popular website is the goal of any Internet Entrepreneur, and we endeavor to assist you in that goal. While some Internet Service Providers will charge you a flat amount per month for your Internet usage, we believe you should only pay for what you use. Why should you pay for the usage of our other customers?

Our experience has been that the average Internet web page is approximately 40 kilobytes in size. In order to reach 5,000 megabytes of throughput each month, your website would have to dispense over 125,000 pages each month! That's an average of 4,166 pages each and every day of the week! Additional throughput is available, however, once your website reaches this amount of consistant traffic, you would probably benefit more from upgrading to our next level of service. Additional throughput is available at $.05 per megabyte.


6.) Private FTP Access

File Transfer Protocol's (FTP) job is to move files from one computer to another. It doesn't matter where the two computers are located, how they are connected, or even whether or not they use the same operating system. As long as both computers speak the FTP language and have access to the Internet, you can use FTP commands to transfer files.

Private FTP is the method you will transfer your Web documents to Elite Host's server so they appear on the Web. Elite Host assigns your Website directory a unique user name and password to protect your documents from harm. You will utilize FTP client software listed on our FTP Resource page to transfer all your files (i.e. html, gif, jpg, wav, etc.) We have also prepared extensive tutorials on how to use this software.


7.) Customizable Mailto CGI Form

If you are on the Internet to do business, the ability to receive orders from a form is vital. While some Internet Service Providers are actually charging extra for this feature, we at Elite Host believe that any business website without a working form posting utility isn't complete.

Ours allows you to customize the form to retrieve a great many variables of information back from your website visitors, as well as a personalized "Thank You" response page once they have completed and sent the form. Try out our form now!


8.) Password Protection For Private Directories

Whether for personal use, creating membership-only directories, customer paid information directories, or any other possible use, your password protected directories will offer a higher level of security.

9.) Customizable Bulletin Boards

One of the best ways to keep your customers and prospects coming back is to create an interactive environment at your website. Internet Bulletin Boards offer perfect opportunity for interaction, as well as server as an alternative Frequently Asked Questions section. Bulletin Boards also offer you the ability to become the authority in your field. When your prospects and/or customers see you answering questions day in and day out, you become an authority, not a sales person. Our experience has been that people like to buy from authorities, not sales people.

10.) Elite Host will register your Domain Name

In order for you to be able to use your own Domain Name, it must first be registered with Internic, the organization responsible for the management and distribution of Domain Names on the Internet. Domain Name registration is included in your Virtual Domain account. Registration usually takes from 48 hours to two weeks, depending on the work load of Internic and the particular requests made.

Internic will bill you separately for the registration and upkeep of your Domain Name, $100 initially for the first two years of registration and service and $50 each year thereafter.

9.) Password Protection For Private Directories

Whether for personal use, creating membership-only directories, customer paid information directories, or any other possible use, your password protected directories will offer a higher level of security.

11.) 5 POP3 Email Addresses

Electronic mail, better known as Email has quickly become the method of choice when sending important information in a timely manner. With your Basic Website account, you will receive an email address similar to : yourname@elitehost.com.

If you are unfamiliar with the workings of email and how to begin using your email address, read our Email tutorial.


11.) Unlimited Email Forwarding Addresses

Having your own Domain Name will allow you the opportunity to receive email at an address under your Domain Name. This means you will be able to use addresses such as: joe@yourdomain.com, sales@yourdomain.com, support@yourdomain.com, etc. You chose the name or word prior to the @ symbol, and yourdomain.com is the Domain Name that you registered with Internic.

These are forwarding addresses. This means that any mail sent to one of these address will be automatically forwarded to an actual POP3 email address, such as yourname@elitehost.com. Each forwarding address can utilize a separate POP3 email address, meaning the mail from each address could be sent to separate individuals, should you need to delegate some of the work in your business. Copies of email sent to separate individuals in your company can be forwarded to your email address, as well. Be sure to request this if you so chose to.


12.) CoPromote Membership

Far and away the most valuable service we can provide for our customers. CoPromote is the Internet's Original Advertising Cooperative. Created by our own Elite Web Design and Marketing, CoPromote was designed to be the only source of web design, Internet advertising, and marketing information you will ever need!
