WHDb

WestHost Inc. has been an affordable Web hosting provider since 1998. They have helped thousands of businesses all over the planet take advantage of low cost Internet services to become more successful, efficient, and competitive. They currently host over 65,000 Web sites filled with a diverse range of hosting requirements. WestHost has tailored their company around these needs by providing flexible and scalable services. These services include shared Web hosting, dedicated servers, reseller hosting, domain registration, eCommerce tools, and merchant account solutions. All plans are geared toward personal and business hosting.

Features

Personal plans offered by WestHost range from budget to a highly affordable solution that is packed with features. Users can gain access to WestHost’s Virtual Private Server (VPS Hosting) Technology, also known as Virtual Dedicated Server (VDS Hosting) technology, where a Web server is divided into multiple isolated environments. Each environment has its own server software providing independence for that website. Any compromise to a site would only affect that WestHost VPS and could not affect any other site on the same server. As with a dedicated server, each WestHost VPS has its own independent web server, mail server and independent software instances. A crashed application (Apache, Sendmail, MySQL etc.) in another client’s WestHost VPS has no effect on your WestHost VPS.

WestHost also offers three business plans that are highly affordable. These plans also are hosted on VPS servers. While all business solutions offer eCommerce solutions, the largest plan also provides a free upgrade to Miva Merchant from osCommerce Shopping Cart. The latter business solution also supports unlimited email and Web sites.

Reliability & Reputation

WestHost servers are supported by a SAS 70 Type II certified world-class infrastructure engineered from the ground up to support just about any kind of contingency. Their data center is SAS 70 Type II certified and constructed on top of a 3½-foot thick reinforced matte footing to which are bolted nine separate base isolations units. Each base isolator is made of alternating layers of rubber and Teflon and the data center itself rests directly on top of the base isolators. These “shock absorbers” are designed to absorb the shaking of the ground during an earthquake and transform the shaking into a gentle roll, thus keeping racks from tipping over and hard drives from jumping.

With such care to detail, you can expect fire protection, uninteruptablle power, a redundant network and full network security as well. WestHost also offers a 30-day money back guarantee if you’re not satisfied with their technology and services.

Recurring charges will be posted to your credit card until such time that you cancel your account in accordance with their cancellation requirements.
