Can I connect an Access Database to my website?

Yes, with your silver hosting plan you can connect to an MS access database via an ODBC driver to your website. We have free technical support video tutorials to help you achieve this.

What mail facilities do I get?

Standard on all hosting packages you get a webmail interface with mail forwarding, mail autoresponders and pop3 email accounts.

What is a catch all email account?

Once you have added your domain you can add a catch all email account to capture any mail addressed to the domain but not a specific account. This means you'll never lose any mail and can have any number of 'ghost' email addresses collected via webmail.

What are custom error pages?

Custom Error pages allow you to present a nicely displayed page to your visitors should they try to access an old link or a page that doesn't exist. Far better than the HTTP error 404! Visit our free technical support section to see how this works.

I've heard the term SEO - but what does it mean?

SEO stands for search Engine Optimisation. This is the process of optimising your web pages so that the many search engines on the internet list your site as high as possible. To help you with this we have a special offer - 90 day free seo program. more..
