| IX Web Hosting Review
Unlike more general Web hosts, IX Web Hosting seems to take a keen interest in the hosting needs of businesses. With three hosting packages, Web design services, and free marketing tools designed for everyone from at-home online business owners to larger corporations, IX knows their niche, and they work hard to bring entrepreneurs “Web hosting at its best.”
About IX Web Hosting
By hosting industry standards, Ohio-based IX Web Hosting’s decade-long track record of service can’t often be beat. Launched in 1998, the company has received well over a dozen awards – a testament to why they’ve stayed in business so long in an industry where players come and go regularly.
IX Web Hosting Support
IX Web Hosting puts all of the information you could need at your fingertips in their comprehensive support centre. Telephone, live chat, and ticket support options are available 24/7 to all customers, and if you’re an international customer but would still like to speak to someone over the phone, they provide a number accessible to you unlike many other hosting companies.
If you’re interested in moving from your current Web hosting company to IX, they offer a support service called SiteDude, where they’ll take care of all aspects of moving your website for you. You’ll never have to worry about losing important files or not remembering how your site was initially set up with your current host – this could be a perfect complementary service if your business hired a Web designer to create and upload your site files the first time around, meaning you have no direct experience in setting up a website.
While other hosts often contain tutorials to help you figure out the basics of using their hosting services, IX Web Hosting offers something even better – video tutorials allowing you to learn by watching a variety of processes step by step.
Products, Packages, and Prices
Although IX Web Hosting doesn’t offer reseller or dedicated hosting packages, their three shared hosting options offer adequate resources for most businesses. Package prices range from USD$4.95 per month to $12.95 per month with a two-year commitment. All shared hosting plans come with at least one free domain name registration, unlimited domain hosting, and unlimited bandwidth*.
The company’s most affordable plan, at USD$4.95 per month is the “Expert Plan,” which offers one free domain name, and one dedicated IP. If you need a slightly more search engine friendly plan, your business can secure eight dedicated IPs, as well as two free domain name registrations, with the “Business Plus” plan which runs at USD$7.95 per month. If you need even further resources, you can get three domain registrations and 16 dedicated IPs at the USD$12.95 per month plan – “Unlimited Pro.”
IX Web Hosting understands the needs businesses have on the Web. That’s why they offer e-commerce solutions, affordable hosting packages, and access to the IX Marketing Centre, where customers can get free credits towards pay-per-click advertising campaigns, a SitePal talking character for their business website, access to free marketing and e-commerce magazines, and more. Help your business stay competitive for less with IX Web Hosting.
* Unlimited bandwidth may be subject to restrictions as per the hosting company’s terms of use
