Virtual Private Server - VPS-2 Plan

This is web space that is reserved on our server Dedicated Virtual Environment

• From your control panel you can view and manage your current usage
• If you start to reach the limit of your web space we will send you an email giving you the option to delete old and unused files, add more space to your existing account or upgrade to our next plan, there is no cost of an upgrade other than the difference in the price of the Plans.

This is the amount of data transferred to and from your VE. Data transfer is measured when ever someone visits your website or sends you an email.

• 10gb is approximately 10,000mb; 1 Mb (approx. 1,000,000 bytes), 1 Gb (approx. 1,000 Mb)

There is 256mb of RAM dedicated to this VPS plan, we offer free burstable RAM up to 1024mb so if there is free RAM avalable at any one time it will be dedicated to your VPS environment until another application decides to use it. If you want to add more RAM to your Virtual Environment simple order it via the control panel or contact us.

We don't cut on costs here at Digital Pacific, we heavily invest in high quality hardware, all servers that we purchase are Dual Xeons with SCSI Drives and are configured in a Raid 5 setup for reliability. We have never had a complete server failure in 8 years due to our early fault detection systems.

Digital Pacific does not charge a set up fee for any VPS.

We don't hide anything from our customers and there are no hidden costs that may surprise you. The problem with many service providers is that there are other costs associated with the plan that may be unclear or undefined. We can guarantee that you will never have to pay any more than the cost of the Plan unless you order extras.

We don't believe in contract periods, that?s why we don?t lock our customers in. We have found that our customers stay with us because of our service.

We are so confident that we can provide a high quality of service and reliability that we provide a "no questions asked" 30 day money back guarantee*.

* Money back guarantee does not apply to domain name registrations.

Due to our fault tolerant mirrored hardware setup and the high maintenance of our servers and related network, we are confident to offer a 99.99% uptime guarantee. There is no such option as 100% uptime from any service provider.

Any website that you host with is viewable and operable from all operating systems.

Many service providers put profits over service and reliability by cramming hundreds sometimes even thousands of web sites on the same server. We are totally against overselling server space and have a server structure plan to which we stick to religiously. We understand that web sites and email space need "room to move" as businesses expand, therefore we leave plenty of room on each server for projected maximum growth. Keeping load to a minimum ensures the smooth operation of our servers and your site. This also reduces downtime to almost ZERO.

We give you access to our search engine submission page. This allows you to automatically submit your site to all of the major search engines including Google and Yahoo!

Getting high rankings in search engines these days is fairly hard but can be crucial to an e-commerce site. We will give you access to our "top secret" Search Engine Optimisation pages, that will give you tips and links to websites that have helped us achieve great results.

You can use the online account manager to view and print past and current invoices, make payments, upgrade or downgrade your account and update other information all in real time.

On request we can change any DNS record to any IP address of your choice.

This allows you to install an SSL certificate purchased from a Secure Certificate provider. SSL certificates are used when sending sensitive information such as credit card information over the internet.

• You can only install a certificate if you have purchased a static IP address from us. Please see our support pages for more information.

Access your log files to find out information about which pages, images, and files are requested, who requests them, and how many bytes are transferred. These log files can be imported to a separate software package that can give you a complete breakdown and analysis of your web site and how it is performing. They can give you an idea on how to "fine tune" your site to ensure maximum exposure on the web.
