Local CGI-directory Preinstalled FormToMail
The popular function "FormToMail" is preinstalled on our servers and is available in each webhosting plan. You can implement this function easily into an existing website without knowledge of Perl or any other scripting language. Each feature of the "FormToMail" is manageable in the ControlPanel. You also have the possibility to customize the design as well as the mailtext. PHP
PHP is a very popular scripting language. PHP is a Hypertext Preprocessor, a server-side embedded scripting language for creating dynamic web pages. The PHP commands will be parsed on request and the dynamically created page is sent to the clients browser. In the ControlPanel we provide you with the full PHP information and resource links to the PHP documentation, PHP related websites and script resources. Password protection
With the password protection you can protect directories, so that they are accessable only with username and password. This feature enables you to create private areas for permitted user groups. You can create and manage the password protection and the permitted users in the ControlPanel for each protected directory. You can have unlimited password protected directories. Cron jobs
A cron job executes a script of your choice at a specfic date/time. You can have multiple cron jobs and each cron job can have different execution times. A cron job can be entered easily in the ControlPanel and you have full control about the automatic execution. In case of a unsuccessful execution of your script you will be informed by email and you can view a history of the automatic executions. Realtime domain management Online DNS maintanance
For most independency and flexibility we give you the possibility to configure the DNS record of your domain. If you have special requirements like SMTP-queuing, an own mail- or webserver, or IP-based subdomains you need to change entries in the domain record.
You can do that easily by using a human interface in the ControlPanel, without knowledge of the domain name service. Its just easy for you, but if you are not sure what to do and you need assistance, our support will help you to configure your domain for special needs. Unlimited subdomains
Subdomains can be set up easily by using the domainpointer. You can create a subdomain and configure the domainpointer so that the specified subdomain points to a subdirectory of your website or to any another target URL.
You also can create IP-based subdomains with the online DNS maintanance. Subdomains are unlimited. POP email addresses Unlimited email aliases
An email alias is assigned to a POP account. Per POP account you can have multiple alias addresses. An alias is a regular email address. The difference between a POP account and an alias is that the alias has no seperate login, because it is assigned to an existing POP account. Lets say you have an POP email address: michael@yourdomain.com. You can create the alias address mike@yourdomain.com, and mail to mike@yourdomain.com will be delivered into the POP account of micheal@yourdomain.com. Catch-all maildrop feature
You can activate the feature to catch all emails addressed to your domain, even if there is no POP account or alias configured. Unlimited email forwarding
You can create unlimited forwards to other addresses for each POP account. Additionally you can configure if you like to keep the message in the POP account or not. If the mail is not kept, you cannot retrieve it from the POP account, it will be available at the target address only. If you keep the mail, it will be available in the POP account as well as at the target address. Autoresponder
An autoresponder replies to incoming mails automatically. It sends a prewritten message you have set up to the sender address. A seperate autoresponder is available for each POP account. That gives you the possibility to create a customized response text for each email address. Spamfilter
Spam is unsolicited email. If you receive such mails you can use the spamfilter, to prevent to get them into your mailbox. You can configure the spamfilter to your needs for different matching criteria. Advanced ControlPanel for account- and service management Server on a load balanced cluster
Your webserver will be set up on our cluster which is balanced by Equalizer Load Balancers to minimize the response time while maximizing the site availability. A very fast, high reliable RAID5-based network file system shares the data securely between the servers. The webserver cluster ensures reliable availability and a high performance of your website. Datacenter
In the state-of-the-art datacenter located downtown in Vienna/Austria we are connected with dual Cisco 12000 routers directly on the redundant OC-12 backbone wich can be scaled to OC-192 capacity to ensure complete redundancy and maximum uptime.
The world-class facility is designed with raised floors, redundant temperature control systems, redundant circuits, backed up with dual UPS and dual diesel generators and redundant pre-action fire suppression systems using FM200 gas. The NOC (Network Operations Center) stuff monitors the systems 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. They can get in contact with our systems administration at any time if necessary.
