1.) What is Web Hosting?
Hosting (also known as Web site hosting, Web hosting, and Webhosting) is the business of housing, serving, and maintaining files for one or more websites. More important than the computer space that is provided for website files is the fast connection to the Internet. Most hosting services offer connections on T1 lines. Typically, an individual business hosting its own site would require a similar connection and it would be expensive. Using a hosting service lets many companies share the cost of a fast Internet connection for serving files.

4.) What's your name? Can I ask for you personally?
You may always ask for your contact personally. Our support center is fairly small. However, we see this as an advantage. Our support personnel are a close-knit group that communicate freely with one another. You will never talk to one representative who promises you one thing, only to talk to another who contradicts the first. Moreover, we pride ourselves on being available to our clients, even at the executive level.

We offer 24/7 network monitoring. Unfortunately, ClickEx.net is not yet able to offer 24/7 phone support. We do, however, provide an 800 number to all our customers and are readily available from 9am to 5pm Monday through Saturday. All technical support services at ClickEx.net are free of charge.

7.) How much space do I get?
Our more popular packages offer between 400MB and 800MB of storage, however more storage is certainly available. Dedicated servers (servers that host ONLY your website) are also available for those sites that need extensive storage.

8.) What kind of security features can I choose from?
Password protected directories are available to all of our hosting customers. Our secure servers boast SSL--secure socket layers. Websites interested in developing e-commerce, creating product databases, and allowing credit card transactions will need deluxe hosting.

Absolutely. You will have FTP access to your site with all of our packages.

13.) What assurances will I get in the way of redundancy?
Although our servers are very reliable, all host-servers go down occasionally. The down time for our sites has always been insignificant (less than 1% of the calendar year). However, if you are concerned with down time, redundancy may be purchased: multiple connections, site mirroring, and multiple mail routing are available

14.) Can I use scripting on my site, and is it okay to conduct e-commerce?
Yes, of course. Scripting capabilities are supported by all our servers. In fact, you will have your personal CGI-bin. E-commerce sites generally require Silver Hosting.
