Why is pageBuzz better than all other web hosting companies?
First, you must understand that every company has its own unique twist on hosting. So weather you use one company over another is based on your needs, ability and site requirements.
While no company can offer an unlimitedly scalable website for $20 a month, many companies do claim to be able to provide just that. In cases where the deal seems too good to be true it always is. The deep hidden deceit in the terms of service usually limits any possibility of reaching the huge bandwidth or disk space they advertise.
More importantly, what do they do for you?
In almost all cases a hosting company provides nothing more than a directory on a server and a bunch of open source unsupported programs that you can use "On Your Own".
The you are "On Your Own" mentality is replete through hosting services and hosting companies. They blame you for anything and everything and when you ask for help they tell you it is beyond the scope of the help they offer.
Some of the biggest problems a website faces are beyond the comprehension of even experienced webmasters. Problems such as excessive bot traffic that can overload a website and consume excessive resources. The policy of almost all hosting companies is to close your website when this happens and send you through an appeal process to get it back up.
Seriously, an appeal process? All of a sudden you have to beg to have your business reinstated when you did not do anything.
At pageBuzz we have filters that block out bots and limit traffic from abusive ip's preventing the site from being attacked or overrun by bots that are looking for data or email addresses. This proprietary system is integrated into the website programming and runs seamlessly in the background.
Other companies offer unlimited SQL databases but if you exceed more that 20 connections at one time, the site gets closed down. How can you know if 20 people will come to your website at the same time? You can't and if you could you would not want the site to boot the extra visitors because the server can't handle the traffic.
In fact the server can handle the traffic, but they sell hundreds of people unlimited resources on the same server then limit each service so they can close your website if you exceed the limit.
I would suggest you read carefully the hidden details from your web host. You will find many circumstances that allows them to delete your website at any time for any reason.
How can you do business when your site could be closed at any time for any reason?
Most companies need to protect the bottom line and could care less about your $20 website. If your site has too much traffic they close it because it will affect the other 500+ websites on the same server.
The fact is, hosting customers don't know the hosting business, that is why they buy hosting services from a "Professional" company. But most companies pass the buck to those customers rather than addressing the issues at a network level.
Lets face it, hosting companies are in business to make money and not so that you can make money. They are not there to support you, they will try to provide as little support as possible so they can keep their costs low.
Hosting companies provide hosting. They are not software companies, they do not provide technology or software development and they don't help you build web pages or teach you how to use software provided by outside sources.
Then there is pageBuzz. We are a software company and we do tell you how to build pages.
We create all of our own technology so you do not have to worry about network functions and abusive traffic. We make sure your website has adequate resources to manage incoming traffic rather than shutting it off for overages.
We run more powerful servers than most hosting companies and we distribute loads over multiple servers so that any possible overloads are less likely to occur. All hosting servers are 4 or 8 processors each with redundant power supplies and hard drives avoiding any single point of failure.
If a new operating system or updates come out, we make sure our software is compatible with the new changes. If you use an open source solution such as OS Commerce or Zen cart you are "On Your Own" and would have no way of knowing that your shopping cart is not working until it is too late.
While we have strict limits on item quantities and pages it is more than the average small business will use and if you need more you should not be looking at $20 hosting.
The fact is that no company can compete with what pageBuzz offers in the price range.
In most cases there are no backups provided. You are responsible for backing up your own data or the isp will back up data on the same server which would be lost in a server failure.
pageBuzz uses ARTB to create up to the minute backups on multiple live servers. With each server running redundant drives, power supplies and network hardware failures are few and far between. But when a sever does fail completely the server is rebuilt on a standby server in between 5 and 20 minutes from the data on the live servers.
With this system even a catastrophic server crash would only result in a few minutes of down time. Standby servers are always waiting to take over any failed server so there is no risk of servers being offline for any extended period of time.
Traditionally in most hosting services the customer is responsible for monitoring server or website availability. It is not uncommon for a web server to be down for several days before the customer realizes that there is a problem and reports it to the hosting company. Of course you can purchase an outside monitoring service, but that is extra money and you still need to report the problem manually. Then the hosting company will need to restore the server from a old backup if one is available, if not, you are on your own.
There is only one good way to deal with backups and that is by using a clustering solution or custom software such as pageBuzz uses. But with a $20 website the chance of running a backup server and employing outside monitoring is not really in the budget for most businesses.
The advantages you get by hosting with pageBuzz are massive. Rather than being on your own to manage network functions and develop complicated programming we do that for you.
You can visit any of the thousands of website hosting forums to find people struggling with these very issues. Unfortunately if you are just a business that needs a website then you may encounter one of these problems at the worst possible time.
Imagine if you spend a large amount of money advertising a sale and you website gets shut down because too many people came to your web store to buy the sale items. Imagine if the server crashes and its down for 2 or 3 days while the hosting company is setting up a new server for you. Imagine if you have sales data from the big sale and now you loose all of it because the data is gone.
It does not have to be a big event. Any data loss is always a disruption for any business and one that anyone would be happy to avoid.
The fact is, your business is 100% dependant on your hosting company. Yet 99% of the people with websites have no idea how the site is hosted, what the capacity of the server is and just how vulnerable their business is.
For example, anyone hosted on a shared server is completely open to anyone else on that server. Any first year computer hacker can access any data you have in your website if they already have ftp access to the server. When a hosting company offers 5000 ftp accounts per account and 300+ accounts on any standard server your could be sharing your data with 1,500,000 other people. That is not very secure!
Oh, but the hosting company sold you a secure cert for $15 so your site is secure so you can collect credit cards. News Flash! Its not secure, it just means the transfer of data from the browser to the web page is secure. Anyone else on the server has access to every bit of data you have stored on the server as well as the people that maintain the servers.
If you are going to collect credit cards you really need a dedicated server, but that is expensive. pageBuzz provides secure web access to a dedicated secure server to each hosting client. This is the safest shared system available since only the hosting company has direct server access. It also means you do not need to understand security or installing software to run credit card functions.
I could go on and on for pages and pages but the point is that most people don't know enough to leap into a hosting program blind. Without an advanced knowledge of how networks function and server operations you need to use a company that provides a complete product for you.
If you get a standard ftp access type hosting package they assume you know what you are doing. After you realize how many outside services you need to pay for to get a working website you will be sick. The worst part is, you never know if you have enough or what holes you have in security and reliability.
pageBuzz is a one stop shop that provides amazing security, reliability and assurance that your business will be online and available to your customers

You’re ready to have a website to promote your business,
have financial freedom and jump into the world of doing business on the world
wide web. Depending on the size of your business, your monthly budget, and your
budget to do business online are all factors to consider when determining the
cost of a professional website. The cost of a professional website can vary
from fifteen hundred dollars or more to design and build plus monthly hosting
fees and as low as twenty dollars a month for the cost of a professional
website. The main thing to consider when weighing the cost of a professional
website is keeping your cost low, especially if you are a small to medium sized
business or affiliate marketer just starting out. Fortunately, the cost of a
professional website does not have to be expensive. When determining the cost
of a professional website, many people make the mistake of thinking they have
to spend a lot of money or they wont have a website that meets their business
needs, personal likes, or is otherwise non-functional. This is simply not true.
The cost of a professional website does not have to break your budget and in
fact the cost of a professional website can be very affordable. You should
first ask yourself a few questions when considering the cost of a professional
website. How much a month is the hosting fee? Does the monthly hosting fee in
the cost of a professional website fit my budget? Does the cost of a
professional website benefit my business? Does the cost of a professional
website affect the ability to process orders online? Does the company
determining the cost of a professional website have secure servers for
processing orders? These are a few important questions to ask when deciding if
the cost of a professional website that offers affordable monthly hosting fees
can meet or even exceed your expectations. One thing is for sure, with more and
more customers shopping and comparing on the internet before they buy, when
they buy, and deciding what they are going to buy, the cost of a professional
website, and doing business on the internet, is a decision every serious
business owner is going to have to make sooner or later. The fact is that
anyone or any business that wants to compete has to have an online website. The
good news is that the cost of a professional website can be very affordable
without giving up quality and functionality. You can even have a company build
you a website with all the features and simplicity of use to be successful for as
low as twenty dollars a month! Your own website, built to your specifications,
for only twenty dollars a month being the cost of a professional website. The
real question is, who can afford not to have a website if the cost of a
professional website is only twenty dollars a month with all the functions and
simplicity you need to be successful.
Looking for low cost websites to promote your business?
