Domain Registration or Transfer

All Network Solutions domain registrations and transfers are processed by HOSTSIAM free of charge! This is the process of establishing your site's new domain (yourdomain.com) or transferring it from a previous host to our own servers. For new domain name registrations, Network Solutions will charge a registration fee of $70, which covers 2 years. After the 2nd year they will charge you $35 per year. You will be billed directly from them. We host web sites all over the world, regardless of which country a domain name is registered in. If you need to register your domain name with an organization other than Network Solutions, all you will need to do is get the organization to point your domain name to our DNS (Domain Name Servers).
Unlimited Domain Pointers

Every hosting plan includes the ability to have an unlimited amount of domain name pointers. This means you can have as many domain names as you'd like pointing to your web site. (ie: domain1.com, domain2.com, domain3.com - all pointing to the same area.) These domain names must point to your root web, but there are ways that you can redirect users into a specific sub-web within your web site. You will also be able to receive mail via domain name pointers. Each domain name pointer requires a 500 baht one time setup fee. No additional monthly fees are involved. Please see domain services for more information on pointers!
Unique IP Address

Every web hosting account at HOSTSIAM is configured with a static IP address. This means that you are given a unique set of numbers (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) specifically assigned to your web space. This allows you to access your web site via a web browser or development tool regardless of the status of your domain name. Having your own IP address also gives you the opportunity of publishing your web site to your new web space before actually transferring your domain name to our DNS. This results in NO DOWN TIME when transferring your web site from a previous host. Some hosts setup multiple web sites on the same IP address which could lead to many problems including browser compatibility issues.
Unlimited Sub-Webs

You are given administrator permissions to your web site allowing you to create and delete sub-webs on your own. (ie: domain.com/company1) Each sub-web can have its own home page. This is very useful if you would like to organize your web site into different sections or you would like to have multiple web sites within your main site. There is no limit to how many sub-webs you can have as long as you stay within your designated hosting plan's storage and bandwidth guidelines.
NTS 4.0 and IIS 4.0

All of our servers are based on Windows NT Server 4.0 and Internet Information Server 4.0. Speed will no longer be your concern since your web site is hosted on Windows NT which has proven to surpass other server platforms. HOSTSIAM has established first class service by running one of the most stable and reliable Windows NT-based network operations in the world. For server hardware specifications, please see server info. "Why should I choose a Windows NT web server?"
Microsoft FrontPage 2000

We are a Microsoft Registered Web Presence Provider and we receive full server extension support directly from Microsoft! Due to its ease of use, powerful management and editing features, FrontPage 2000 has become a standard for Internet development. Our clients can ask for extensions to be installed on their site free of charge so that they may be able to take advantage of all the great benefits. These server extensions also support MS Visual InterDev and other publishing software. Click here for more info on Microsoft FrontPage 2000.

Unlimited FTP updates

Our clients may publish and maintain their web sites through unlimited use of FTP (File Transfer Protocol) client software. Many development clients require FTP for publishing to the web.
Anonymous FTP

An anonymous FTP site is configured with every web hosting account. Users will be able to access a specific directory of your web site without any authentication required. This is very useful if you would like to direct visitors to a public area where they can download software. The directory will be located outside of your web content directory for security purposes.
Windows Web Folder Access

With the use of the Microsoft FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions, you can create a Web Folder in your windows environment. By creating a web folder on your computer, you are virtually making your web site's content directory part of your computer. This gives you the ability to easily open, modify, and save documents within your web site.
Microsoft Office Server Extensions (OSE)

are now supported with our Dedicated Server plans. Microsoft Office 2000 users can publish documents, participate in discussions, and collaborate on team projects. OSE also offers a full set of security features and works well in environments ranging from small departments to large organizations.
Active Server Pages ASP (Active Server Pages)

is enabled on all of our Windows NT web servers. ASP can be used to create, complex, consumer oriented web applications such as shopping carts and personnel oriented databases. This is usually accomplished in conjunction with MS Access and MS SQL Server. You've probably already noticed that most of the pages on this web site have the .asp extension. HOSTSIAM extensive experience in both hosting and developing ASP based sites ensures your active site stays active. Our servers are tuned and built to withstand ASP's demands.
Personal cgi-bin Directory

CGI Applications may be run within your site via placement in the cgi-bin directory that is pre-installed on every site. This is not a shared directory on the web server. It is a private directory for use with only your web site.
ASP-db PRO Component

ASP-db PRO is now supported! You can now publish the information in your databases to the web with ease. Create dynamic tables and navigation buttons with only three lines of code! You can publish your Microsoft Access databases, Excel spreadsheets, SQL Server Database, or any other "ODBC" data source. Click here for a Live Demo of ASP-db PRO!
IIS ASP Components

Microsoft Internet Information Server includes various ASP components that are pre-installed on every web server. Below is a listing of each component with a brief description.

- Ad Rotator Component The Ad Rotator component creates an Ad Rotator object that automates the rotation of advertisement images on a Web page. Each time a user opens or reloads the Web page, the Ad Rotator component displays a new advertisement based on the information you specify in a Rotator Schedule File.

- NewMail Object (CDONTS Library) The NewMail object provides for sending a message with very few lines of code.

- File Access Component The File Access component exposes methods and properties you can use to access a computer's file system. You can use the File Access Component to create a FileSystemObject object which provides the methods properties and collections you use to access the file system.

- Browser Capabilities Component The Browser Capabilities component creates a BrowserType object that provides your scripts with a description of the capabilities of the client's Web browser.

- Database Access Component The Database Access component uses ActiveX Data Objects (ADO) to access information stored in a database or other tabular data structure.

For full details, documentation, our support knowledgebase and information on additional features and upgrades to ASPLogin 2000 Pro, please visit: http://www.asplogin.com/
Mailbox Control Panel

Our mail server includes a remote administration utility that makes it easy for you to manage your mail. You may log on to the mail server from a remote system as long as you have access to an HTML web browser. Using a web-based mailbox control panel, you can add, delete, or change users and aliases. In addition, each user can change individual passwords, finger plans, and vacation messages via the Web. This allows you to setup forwarding, auto-responders, and other important e-mail options at any time.
Web-based Messaging

Web-based Messaging is an added convenience for e-mail users — rather than replacing the function of a standard mail client, it enhances e-mail access by "Web enabling" our mail server. Web-based Messaging is especially helpful to users who are away from the office and need quick and easy access to their electronic mail.

- Access your e-mail account from any browser connected to the World Wide Web
- Conveniently read, send, delete, forward, reply to, and print e-mail directly from your browser - Enhance standard e-mail messages with HTML-based, Web-style text and graphics
- Simply click to follow highlighted hyperlinks in e-mail messages
- Users can change passwords, finger information, mail forwarding information, and vacation - messages via the Web
- System administrators can monitor and manage user accounts remotely

Unlimited E-mail Aliasing

Your default e-mail account can have an unlimited amount of e-mail addresses delivering to it, so that, in example, "anyname @ yourdomain.com" are aliases that deliver to a single POP3/IMAP4 email box which can be accessed with a single username and password. E-mail aliases are configurable via the web-based control panel.
E-mail Forwarding

Options If you have an e-mail address that you would like to continue using to receive all of your email, you can direct any of your POP3/IMAP4 accounts to forward your mail to that specific account. In this way, you may configure your e-mail at work to forward messages to your home e-mail address so that you will always have access to any new incoming messages.
E-mail Autoresponders

Whenever a person sends an e-mail to your account, your e-mail box will automatically send a response message back to them of your choice. This message is usually in the format of "Thank you for viewing our site" or something along those lines. Every POP3/IMAP4 mailbox has this feature.
Statistics Server 5.0 Live Web Stats

Click here for a Live Demo!

An excellent method of monitoring your site's performance and audience. These stats include many important options which produce vital statistics including number of hits, viewer locations, and peak browsing times for your site. These stats are completely live and can be viewed at all times.

Statistics Server is all about answering the questions management, marketing and web administrators ask in order to make informed decisions about their Web investment. Things like, How many users visit every day, every week, every month?, Who are they?, Where do they come from? With Statistics Server you can deliver the answers in record breaking time.

Another really neat feature Statistics Server offers is the live Who's On report which shows everyone on the web site, where in the world they are from and what they are doing. Because Statistics Server is a stand-alone Web server it also doubles as an inbound and/or outbound click through tracker. Click throughs are considered to be the most accurate way to measure the effectiveness of Web advertising.
Access to Raw Log Files

With raw log files, you can use 3rd party log analysis software to create you own specific reports. You must download the logs to your computer before you can use them.
Fault Tolerance

We use hardware based RAID controllers with hot-swap capabilities and 16MB of cache memory. The hard drives in our servers are all 7200 RPM+ Ultra Wide SCSI with Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T.). S.M.A.R.T. technology monitors certain characteristics of drive performance and timing. These measurements are used as an early prediction of drive failure. The drives are configured in a RAID 5 configuration (disk mirroring) that is more expensive to implement than RAID 1, but offers much more performance and reliability.
Daily Tape Backup

Our servers are backed up daily on high-capacity data tapes that retain a full image of our server drives in the unlikely case of a drive problem. Restoring old data is also available for a small fee.
24 Hour Server Monitoring

Our servers are constantly monitored by special monitoring software that our programmers have created specifically for this purpose. If a service goes down for some reason, it is automatically repaired, and restarted if necessary. In addition to our special software, our servers are monitored from a remote location. Any problems that are not automatically fixed by our software are reported to our system administrators. We also give you access to a 24hr Emergency Pager # (should your site experience a problem that is not detected).
UPS and Generator Backup

In the event of a power loss, our equipment is connected to automatic battery backup systems and readily available generators so that we may continue to operate without any down time. We have proven our reliability numerous times with previous incidents and we will do it again whenever it is needed!
99.9% Uptime

Our great combination of 24 hour server monitoring, UPS and generator backup, fault tolerant web servers, and our reliable UUNET connection has proven itself by giving us a nearly flawless history of 99.9% uptime. The remaining .1% accounts for standard maintenance and upgrades which is always done during low traffic time frames
Backbone Connectivity

All of our servers are in conjunction with high speed network cards and hubs designed specifically for the type of services we provide. We use Cisco routers to give us fast and reliable direct connectivity to multiple Internet backbones. We are currently working in conjunction with UUNET, Cable & Wireless USA, Sprint, and Qwest - leading backbone providers of the world.

Click here for more information about our backbone connectivity.
RealAudio and RealVideo

RealAudio and RealVideo allow browsers to listen or view multimedia files as they are downloading, rather than having to wait for the entire document to download before opening it. In this manner, large multimedia files can be viewed efficiently. We have full support for RealAudio and RealVideo. With software from RealNetworks called RealProducer, you can create streaming audio and videos for your site without using your own streaming server.

Please visit RealNetworks at http://www.realnetworks.com for more information.
MacroMedia Shockwave

Using MacroMedia Director 6.x or Flash, web designers can create web-based vector animations that add extreme interactivity to their sites and make what would otherwise be a static site appear smooth, lively, and energetic. The plug-in called the Shockwave Flash Player is what allows a browser to view these animations. Both the plug-in and the animations are extremely compact, so there's a minimum of loading time.
MIDI Music Support

MIDI is the basis for most electronic music today and is a format readable by most modern synthesizers and computer soundcards. MIDI files do not contain the actual music of a song, just information telling your computer's soundcard what notes to play. Unlike a massive .wav file that eats up a staggering 10mb per minute of audio, depending on the complexity of the arrangement a 5 minute MIDI song can be as small as 20k, meaning it downloads almost instantly.
On Site Technicians

Our staff of highly experienced professionals work literally within feet of our high speed web servers. Unlike other web presence providers, we do not co-locate our web servers in a distant facility. This translates into a staff that has close working knowledge of our systems. For any questions, please refer to our Contact Info page.
