Shocked!
Recently Got in touch with the company which hosted my website and CTPod’s.
And I saw a change in their plans, (Luckily I signed up earlier)
KEY:
Hosting means the space allocated for you by the server
Domain means the websites, you have to pay to get a (whatever).com website.
This is their NEW PLANS. – CMI
For just 50 dollars for 3 months (Hosting) and on top of that $28 for a year (Domains) they provide:
- 8 MySQL Databases = 100MB Limit for SQL’s - Run softwares which requires a database, Eg: Blogger
- Live Chat / Email / Phone Support = 24/7 – In case your website goes down, a call away.
- Fantastico – Install Scripts and Software on your server.
- PHP 5 support – Support PHP Scripts
- Perl, Python, Javascript, Cron Jobs, Front Page, GD , Image Magick - A variety of scripts supported
- 4GB Disk Space (Hard drive) - Space to put your files,softwares,videos, pictures..
- 40 GB Bandwidth - Rate of Internet Transfer
- 99.9% Uptime - Measure of the time a computer system has been “up” and running
- Daily Backup – Keep another set of files, in case the system goes down.
- No Contract – No strings attached.
- 30-day Money Back Guarantee - If you are unhappy with their service
- Host 4 Different Websites on an account -Run 4 websites with one Username and Password and one Server
- 20 Parked Domains - Buy other websites and trademark it.
- 15 Emails Accounts Limit - Only can create 15 emails account. Eg: (Example@example.com)
- 10 Mailing Lists – A place to distribute news.
-
- Unlimited FTP Accounts - Accounts to upload files
- Unlimited Subdomains - Subdomains is like Eg: (something).example.com
This is very very little, especially bandwidth, HabboSoup less than a month already exceed 40Gb of bandwidth already.
This is the company’s old plan, which I’m using it to power up CTPod and This blog.
The Old Plan – What Im using.
For $48 dollars (Hosting) for 3 months on top of that 28 dollars for a year (Domains) they provide:
- 20 MySQL Databases = No Limit for SQL’s - Run softwares which requires a database, Eg: Blogger
- Live Chat / Phone / Email Support = 24/7 Support - In case your website goes down, a call away.
- Fantastico - Install Scripts and Software on your server.
- Php 5 support - Support PHP Scripts
- Perl, Python, Javascript, Cron Jobs, Front Page, GD , Image Magick - A variety of scripts supported
- 7GB Disk Space - Space to put your files, softwares, blog post, pictures, videos..
- 75 GB Bandwidth - Rate of Internet Transfer
- 99.9% Uptime – Measure of the time a computer system has been “up” and running
- Daily Backup - Keep another set of files, in case the system goes down.
- No Contract – No strings attached.
- 30-day Money Back Guarantee - If you are unhappy with their service
- Host 5 Different Websites on one account - Run 5 websites with one Username and Password and one Server
- 20 Parked Domains - Buy other websites and trademark it.
- 50 Emails Accounts Limit - Only can create 15 emails account. Eg: (Example@example.com)
- 10 Mailing Lists – A place to distribute news.
- Unlimited FTP Accounts - Accounts to upload files
- Unlimited Subdomains - Subdomains is like Eg: (something).example.com
So, as you can see, the difference is quite big. Luckily, I registered for the old plan before the new one came out. I used to use SOUP-Hosting last time, as you know, but they have quite frequent downtimes, thats why I moved out.
