- What will be my web address?
You have 2 choices. You can purchase your own web address or if
you already have one use it. When you sign up we will provide
you with the name-server information and help you set up your web
address (URL) so that it goes live. The process is very simple.
Or you can have a free web address that we will set up for you
as a sub domain. The address would be http://yournamechoice.ChromeHosting.net
(where yournamechoice is the name you choose). This is much better
than other free services which require your visitor to remember
a /directoryname to get to your site.

- I want the first plan with the free web page professionally
designed for me. How does this work?
You provide us with your information by email. Our professional
designer will interact with you through email or by telephone
to determine exactly what type of page you need. The designer
will design a sample page and load it onto a special site address
only given to you so that you may see the page live. You will
be given the opportunity to interact with the designer and make
recommendations, proof the page and have any changes made that
you feel are necessary. Even though this is a free web page, it
is your web page and we want to be certain you are happy with
it before it goes online. Assuming there are minimal changes to
your page we can usually have you online within a few days of
your purchase.
- I operate a small business and would like the shopping cart
how does that work?
You can use our shopping cart or you can purchase one of your
own and we will help you set it up for a small fee. Our shopping
cart is very sophisticated. With our Super Plan it is free to
use. You must have our Super Plan to have access to our shopping
cart for free otherwise there is a small fee to activate it in
addition to any set up fees. If you already know how to program
a relational database then you can learn fairly easily how to
set up the shopping cart. Or we can set it up for you for a small
fee. The fee really depends upon how much inventory you have to
represent and how organized that is. If you would like a quote
you will need to contact us. This is a one-time programming fee
and is anywhere from $150.00 to $2500.00. We use the Open Source
OsCommerce Shopping Cart, you are welcome to get a copy and FTP
it to your site and set it up yourself if you are technically
inclined. You have full FTP access to your site at any time and
can set up this or any other program you choose. Once you have
your shopping cart online you will also want to consider a secure
certificate. This way when your customer shops your site they
will have a padlock on the lower corner of the browser and know
that their purchase is through a secure server. Most hosting companies
charge a monthly fee for a secure server because it requires you
to have a dedicated IP address for your hosting. We do not. We
charge you a small yearly fee of around $38.00 for the secure
certificate but we give you the dedicated IP address for free
and do not charge you any monthly fees. Compare this same service
to others that charge hundreds of dollars! At the same time you
will probably want to set up a Paypal account if you do not already
have one. Our shopping cart is already integrated with Paypal
so that you can accept major credit cards and checks safely and
securely without paying monthly fees. You simply pay a small transaction
fee to Paypal for each transaction. We use the same Paypal system
here with the purchase you make with us. It allows us to keep
our costs to a minimum and pass the savings on to our customers.
- Do I need a credit card or Paypal account to pay you for services?
No, you do not need a credit card or a Paypal account to pay us
for services. When you initiate the transaction by using the purchase
button you will have the option of signing up for a paypal account
or pressing a separate button to complete the transaction if you
do not want to sign up for an account. You do not need a credit
card but you will need a checking account to make the payment.
Or you can mail a check or money order to us at the address located
on our contact page.
- I want to have my own Domain Name how do I do that?
You will need to purchase your domain name separately. Once your
domain name is purchased the nameservers will need to be pointed
to our nameservers for hosting to take place. The process is very
easy and can be done in a few clicks. We help you at no charge
with instructions when you sign up an account with us or we can
do it for you. We offer domain name services as well as other
services such as Secure Certificates, Fax thru Email, Web Site
Traffic Services and other domain related products through our
ICANN accredited sister company MGW-Adtastic/WilderWebHosting
at MGW-Adtastic which is our Domain Registration Company as well
as offering other services. You can search for an available name
and make your purchase through us if you choose. Simply click
on the link, search for your available name and when you find
one you want sign up a free account with MGW-Adtastic and purchase
your domain name through our automated service on our secure server.
Once you make your domain name purchase and set up your account
come back to this site or simply press the "Home" Link
from the MGW-Adtastic Domain Registration Site to purchase your
hosting here. In addition, if you are purchasing our deluxe hosting
service and want your own domain name it is best to let us purchase
it for you then it is included in your account for free and you
do not have to worry about annual renewals with ICANN, we take
care of those for you. If you do not have your domain name already
it is best to purchase the name through us as that gives you extra
benefits and our purchase rate is very competitive, however, you
can also transfer an active domain name into our service if you
choose. Send
us a message if you have any questions, or to let us know
what your needs are- we offer free support and would certainly
be happy to assist you.
- Once I purchase hosting how long will it take for my site to
be online?
Once you purchase hosting and have a domain name or select a free
name through our service we can have you online within 72 hours
of receiving or designing your pages. In addition you will be
given FTP access to your site where you can load your own pages
if you choose.

FAQS
RELATED TO HOSTING
Frequently Asked Questions will be put here....
- What is Virtual Hosting?
- What are Virtual Private Servers?
- ...
- What is Virtual Hosting?
Virtual Hosting is also known as Shared Web Hosting, where you
are sharing the physical server and a single set of software applications
with other users. Virtual Hosting has been extremely popular in
the past for it's fast deployment, strong resources, and most
importantly for having a very reasonable price. Another advantage
to Virtual Hosting is that you have a powerful, reliable, and
professionally managed server without having to have advanced
technical skills, making it ideal for an individual, small business,
or even a beginner webmaster
The disadvantage of Virtual Hosting is that you are sharing the
server with other users, which are configured and controlled by
an administrator, not you. So basically you have your hands tied
behind your back, because you have to contact the administrator
everytime you have to adjust or change your configuration settings.
Even if you managed to get a hold of the administrator, they may
not fulfill your request. It's up to them, they are the administrator.
If you were the administrator you wouldn't have these limitations
and would have full control.
- What are Virtual Private Servers?
A Virtual Private Server is a single server that is partitioned
at the root into multiple dedicated servers. This allows you to
share the cost of the network connectivity, hardware, and system
maintenance with other hosting customers, while maintaining your
flexibility and freedom.
The real advantage of Virtual Private Servers is that they allow
you to have complete control and they have the security advantages
of a dedicated server at the fraction of the cost. You have access
to the virtual root, Telnet, web configuration files, and full
CGI-BIN access. I can't forget to mention that you also have access
to your password, aliases file, and sendmail configuration file.
For many reasons you can see that a Virtual Private Server is
an excellent solution for small to medium size businesses that
have an increasingly complex needs.
