If you need a new domain we will register it for you free of charge and then again on an annual basis for as long as you
continue to host with us.
|
Domains
|
25 |
Your web hosting space can be shared amongst multiple domains, with each domain pointing to a different folder on one of our web servers.
That way, you can host multiple domains (eg: www.mydomain.co.uk, www.yourotherdomain.co.uk) on a single hosting account.
|
Sub Domains
|
50 |
You can host multiple sub-domains per proper registered domain. For example,
if your main domain is something like this: www.mydomain.co.uk, you can have sub domains such as: sales.mydomain.co.uk, support.mydomain.co.uk
|
Domain Transfer
|

We will not charge you for transfering a domain to us from another UK Internet Service Provider
|
Domain hosted away
|
Yes |
Your domain name does not need to be registered with us. If your domain name is registered with another service provider
or registrar, all you need to do is get them to point their DNS servers to our name servers. Just email our support department
for help if required.

Data Capacity |
Hosting space
|
1 GB |
This is the amount of disk space allocated for your domain hosting under this plan shared amongst your domains.
|
Data transfer
|
10 GB/mth |
Typically the amount of data allowed transferred from your website to people's web browsers. A normal web page
typically transfers around 80Kbytes per page, depending upon content such as images, etc. Therefore, a monthly 1GB
allowance would enable around 12,500 web pages to be transferred.
|
Mailbox Capacity
|
500 MB |

|
Email |
Email POP3/IMAP
|
25 |
You can set up any email address you like to go with your domain name. For example: joesmith@yourdomain.co.uk.
Every address you create can be personalised the way you want it, and you can also configure destinations too.
We support two different types of mailbox:
- An IMAP account which stands for Internet Message Access Protocol, allows you access to your e-mail from an Internet browser window.
Your mail is stored safely on a Webhouse server thereby enabling you to work on it from source.
- A POP3 account stands for Post Office Protocol-version 3, these mailboxes on Webhouse servers and
hold e-mail addressed to you. When you open your e-mail client such as Outlook, your email is downloaded to your computer.
|
Auto Responders
|
Yes |
You can add an automated reply to any of your email accounts. Useful if you are away on holiday for example.
|
Aliases
|
Unlimited |
For example, you can choose to have your company email address as sales@yourdomain.co.uk go to an e-mail box or get forwarded to a separate work or home address. Also, if your package contains subdomains, they can have their own e-mail addresses as well (i.e. john@ support.domain-of-your-choice.co.uk.) Each e-mail account is independent and can be set up to be accessed by specific users or by administrators.
|

Your email can be accessed from a web browser such as Internet Explorer or Netscape, so you do not have

Website Management & Security |
FTP Users

FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol and is the method you can use to access your website folders and files
from your own pc. It's a good idea to limit the number of users for security reasons. You can use FTP software
such as CuteFTP to log on to your website, or even your file explorer in Windows XP.
|
DNS Management
|
Yes |
DNS stands for Domain Name Servers, and your hosting account gives you full access for you to be able to manage these
settings. Typically these settings should only be used by those experienced with DNS management.
|
Shared SSL
|
Yes |
SSL Stands for Secure Sockets Layer and is used to encrypt data flowing between a web browser such as Internet Explorer
and the web server. It enables the little padlock to be shown in the bottom of your browser when connected to a secure page.
Shared SSL means using an SSL certificate belonging to The WebHouse and therefore not in your company name.
