Without a domain name, there is no way to access or lead to the information stored on your web hosting account, and therefore without a domain name, web hosting cannot function. If you already have a domain name registered to other provider but would like to use our web hosting, you can either transfer your domain or update nameserver.

For most websites, a shared hosting plan is enough. Our shared hosting plans have different sizes and limits and its best to identify what you need initially. What you will need to consider are:

1. How many email accounts and the average mailbox space each will consume
2. The size of the web files, images and other objects on your website
3. The traffic or number of visits per month as it relates to the data transfer or bandwidth allocation
4. The number of total inodes (or the total number of files and folders in your site including emails) as this is limited as well

However, some websites might require bigger resources such as more inodes or bigger control such as root access. For this, we recommend going for our Virtual Private Servers (VPS) or Dedicated servers.

You can order online thru our billing system however we have a limited number of dedicated servers that are available based on the specifications posted on the website. It is best you email our sales for confirmation of server availability before ordering.

A dedicated IP (Internet Protocol) is a unique Internet address dedicated exclusively to a single hosting account. The normal configuration is to have several hosting accounts residing on a single server and sharing its IP address. Normally, you will only need a dedicated IP if you want your website to have an SSL certificate. Since IP addresses are a limited resource, there is a fee to add an IP address and we will require proper justification if you need one assigned to your web site.
