Features of BetterWebSpace Hosting

Full FTP Access

File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is used for uploading files to your site.

Having full FTP access will allow you to change your website at any time. Your account has it's own individual username and password so nobody else can change your site.

30 Day - Money Back Guarantee

At BetterWebSpace customer satisfaction is very important.

If you are not completely satisfied with our services for any reason within the first 30 days of usage you will be given a full refund of all monthly hosting fees.

Please note that domain registration fees, setup fees, bandwidth addon fees, are not refundable.

No Hidden Charges

You've seen the other hosts, you've tried to get something for nothing (hasn't everybody?), and found out that what seemed like the deal of a lifetime, suddenly turns into an expensive package once registration, forwarding and a variety of miscellaneous fees are added.

What we provide is an honest pricing policy, we'll tell you what we we're going to charge you up front and it won't cost you anything else!

You can also upgrade/downgrade your account at any time.

PHP 5

PHP is a Hypertext Preprocessor, a server-side scripting language, allowing scripts to be run on the server before the information is passed on to your audience, giving you truly dyanmic content.

When a visitor opens the page, the server processes the script and passes the results to the visitor's browser.

PHP 5 brings with it many advanced features and security enhancements.

Hotlink Preventor

The hotlink preventor allows you to stop users "hotlinking" to parts of your site, stop people using images from your site as part of their own site and eating into your bandwidth.

Web/POP3

Via our simple yet powerful control panel you can view all your emails and even send emails online.
This useful facility means you can access your email from any computer in the world.

Or should you prefer, you can use the POP3 or IMAP standard to download your email to almost any email package.

Aliases & Autoresponders

Enjoy email aliases with full control over there actions, i.e., forward mails to sales@domain.com, support@domain.com and news@domain.com to just one account, or if you prefer you can set individual emails to go to other people. For example, you can easily set up your email preferences so that everything goes to you, apart from e.g., bob@domain.com, this can go to another mailbox or even forwarded to another email address.

You can even set up lists with your email address, e.g., a visitor sends an email to info@domain.com, this email is then sent to everyone on your list, e.g., bob@domain.com + joanne@workdomain.com + steve@mymobile.co.uk - and it's all set up with a few clicks in your control panel.

With autoresponders your site can reply instantly to any incoming emails, e.g., if someone sends an email to sales@domain.com, the site can respond no human intervention, with a thank you message, e.g., "thank you for contacting us, we will be in touch within 24 hours" etc.

Different reply messages can be set up for every email alias, e.g., one reply message for emails sent to sales@domain.com and a different one for bob@domain.com.

File Manager

Your web based file manager, gives you full control and access to all of your files anytime, anywhere.
Just log in to your control panel and change, view, upload or delete a file whenever you need to.

Password Protected Directories

Password protected directories means that you can place passwords on any areas of your website as you wish. For example, you may wish for anyone to look at your webpages, but only want family and friends to look at other information. This is simple to do via your easy to use control panel and you have full control over the passwords.

Password protected areas can be added, changed or deleted at any time via your control panel.

When a visitor tries to gain access to a password protected area, a box pops up asking for their password. No access will be granted unless this password is correct.

There is no limit on how many areas you can make password protected.

Raw Access Logs

Via our easy to use control panel you have complete access to your raw access logs from your website.

These can be used in many programs to analyse the traffic to your website.

Detailed Traffic Statistics

Via your control panel you can access your traffic statistics and see exactly what's happening. You can simply view month by month information, such as number of hits, number of visitors etc, or go into great depth and see who looked at which page on every day since your site was launched.

You can also see how your visitors found you, e.g., a link from another site, a search engines etc, what page they were on when they left your site, what people are typing into search engines to find your site, plus much more. Traffic information is supplied in graph form and numeric form allowing you to analyse your data in any way you prefer.

If you want to increase visitors to your website, then our traffic statistics are essential in showing you what marketing efforts are working well and those that are not.

CRON Jobs

A cron job is an automated process that operates at predefined time intervals.

Unlike many of our competitors, we allow full access to perform cron jobs which are administered via our easy to use control panel.

Custom Error Pages

Have you ever visited a website to find that the page wasn't there, only to be presented with a horrid black and white, windows default 404 error message ? Unfortunately, most visitors will look elsewhere when they see an error message like this.

This is where your easy to use control panel can help. You can create a single webpage, anything you like, then pop the html code into the control panel and whenever someone gets a 404 error message on your website they see your pre-designed error page and not the default error message.

The great benefit of this is that your error page could be your home page, thus taking the visitor back to your site and not forcing them away. An easy yet effective method to retain your visitors. For example, say the page the visitor wants to look at is www.domain.com/my_info.html and they type it in wrong, they will see your home page or whatever you want them to see.

Another brilliant feature of our control panel is our error logs. With these you can see where such 404 errors have occurred, which will allow you to easily find any bad links / code in your website and fix it ASAP.

MySQL Databases

MySQL, the most popular Open Source SQL database, is a fast, reliable database management system.

You can use MySQL as the database layer for your dynamically generated web pages. Like most Open Source programs and languages, MySQL has a very practical set of features developed with contribution from many users worldwide. The connectivity, speed, and security make MySQL highly suited for accessing databases on the Internet.

Your MySQL database can be fully managed via our easy to use control panel.

Subdomains

Having free sub domains is like having free additional websites.

For example, if you had http://www.domain.com you could also have http://members.domain.com - http://email.domain.com etc etc.

A sub domain is just like having a separate website and you control them. Another great thing about sub domains is that search engines consider them to be a separate website. For example, if you had www.domain.com you could also submit sub1.domain.com - sub3.domain.com to the search engines as well, resulting in even more hits to your site.

Mailing Lists

With an email list, visitors to your website can join / leave your list at any time.

For example, if you have a website about local news, people can join your email list and you can then email them all in one go. The email list is set up and controlled via our control panel which makes administration very easy.
