What is web hosting? In order to let people access your web site, you have to put it on a web server (which is a computer that is always turned on and connected to the internet through a high speed connection). There are different kinds of web hosting servers. Some servers host multiple web sites (which are cheaper), and other servers host one or two sites (which is more expensive).

Here are the available web hosting packages from purple zebra services. Remember that custom packages are available if you don't see what your looking for on here...

1. Personal Site package

This package is designed for a person that is looking for a place to make his own. If you want a place to add your own content, a blog/journal, a guestbook, etc, place to add pictures, then this option is for you. Post those new pictures that you just took with your digital camera. Post what events you have on an online calendar so that your friends and family can keep up with you. We can provide you with several options that are commonly available for personal websites, without banner advertisements, like most free hosting providers require you to have. Some options that come with this package include:

• personal pages
• blog
• guestbook
• picture organizer
• calendar
• and more!

2. Business/organization site package: light

Do you have a small business, orginization, band, etc, and just need a website to provide some basic information about yourself, maybe updating it once or twice a month (with a calendar, etc.), then this package is for you. This package is designed for anyone needing a small precense on the web with basic information about their business, such as contact information, company information, etc. Most businesses that choose this option have about 7-25 webpages total. There are several options available to businesses in terms of features. We will be glad to meet with you and discuss your individual needs, and then determine what needs to be done to meet those needs. Extra features are available for use with your website, including domain name registration.

3. Business/organization site package: medium

If you are a business that needs a site, but also is more interactive in nature, this package can suit your needs. With this package, you get a website, but also comes with features that will make your site more interactive. Some interactive features include a domain name, personalized e-mail addresses, and integrated features into your site. Just a few of these interactive features include:

• calendar
• message boards
• web based e-mail
• easily update news of site
• advertisement system
• many, many more...

This package must be specifically tailored to the needs of each individual business. For example, if you are a store and trying to sell something, then you would require a shopping cart program, and maybe not a calendar. If you are a church, then you would proablably want a calendar, but may not need an advertisement system. It just all depends on the individual needs of the site that you are wanting to create.

4. Business/organization site package: heavy

If you know that you are going to get a lot of visitors, have a lot of content, and need a lot of interactive items in your site, then this site is designed for you. This package comes with plenty of disk space, resources, and options. Just a few options available include getting unlimited e-mail addresses (aliases, POP3, etc.), SSL (secure sockey layer) for online transactions, full web community programs (for easy maintainence), etc. Depending on your needs, dedicated servers are available. This package requires a consultation to determine the specific needs that your site will have. Please contact us for a free consultation.
