Why don't you just give everyone their own IP address?
There are a limited number of IP addresses in the world and that number is rapidly being depleted. Once the IP addresses are gone, they're gone--there just won't be any more for anyone else. There is some work being done to establish a new system but it would take a very long time to implement it and it is not near completion yet. So, in an effort to do our part, we minimize the number of IP addresses we use. More than 95% of our clients use shared IP addresses and do not report that they have any trouble with them at all.
But if you want to have IP address we can give it for you for $20 setup. With your own IP you can get SSL.
I want to accept credit cards through my website, can I do this on your servers?
Yes, you'll need to find a shopping cart (your can use our Agora Shopping Cart, or Zen Cart for free) and you will need to have a merchant account with a bank or select billing service, like 2CheckOut.

Yes, definitely. We have clients whose material range from personal to corporate information. However, we do not allow certain adult content, spam, warez or illegal content with our services. See our terms and conditions for details on content permitted on our servers.
Do you provide tech support?
Yes, we will provide our customers with technical support for any problems related to services or tools that are offered by us. If you require further assistance, simply contact our support group.
