VPS and Dedicated Servers are on their way!

30 01 2008

Starting Feb 4th 2008, we will be offering VPS and Dedicated servers.  We will offer unmanaged and managed accounts.

Our price structure is VERY competitive and we are excited about launching this program.

We are able to offer this due to a strategic partnership with our data center.

Just like our hosting, we will continue to supply award winning support 24/7/365

If you have any questions or would to order a new server, just use our easy to use online cart or give us a call.


Why Our Prices Are So Low?

18 12 2007

You are probably wondering how we can charge as much as 70% less than our competition and still be in business, right? First of all, we run a tight ship. We choose our promotions carefully and ensure every advertising dollar pays for itself; we streamline our systems and billing processes; we don’t have any frills (like the $5,000.00 office chairs of some of the now bankrupt dot-coms). We also don’t waste money on unnecessary things like toll-free telephone numbers that are often abused anyway.

Second, we’re straight shooters. There are no tricks in what we do, just good, old-fashioned, reliable business principles. Quite often we’re asked if we bait our customers with low rates and then charge high renewal prices. Anybody that expects us to do that will be disappointed. We believe in the old saying, “You can shear a sheep many times but you can only skin it once.” So, your hosting rates will be no higher than the rate you paid when you initially signed up.

What’s the end result of all this? Well, we’re happy to tell you that we’re a small but profitable company that expects to be in business for many years to come. All this, of course, is due to value-conscious customers like you.

We are “cleaning house”!

24 10 2007

Over the years our parent company, XPaw Media International, has been involved in several different hosting web sites.   With new trends in the hosting industry, we  have adapted by adding new sites.  Our first hosting site in 1999 sold 200 MB hosting accounts for $24.95 per month.  Our prices were very competitive!   We hosted the sites on our very first server farm which were Cobalt Raq’s with only 20 GB hard drives.  At the time, these were the “top of the line” servers for the ease of setting up hosting accounts.  Our Current servers have 750GB+ capacity!  This was also a time of $1000 a month for 100gb of monthly bandwidth!  My, how things have changed.

Over the years, we have upgraded and replaced servers as technology allowed.  As these new growth spurts in the ISP industry happened, we had to make the choice of re-doing our hosting sites or just expand into new hosting ventures.  We did the latter.  When we started using cPanel/Whm hosting, we started new hosting sites that focused our advertising dollars on spreading the cPanel word and basically left the old sites to run on their own, just maintaining support for our customers.

The problem with this is organization, or lack of it.  In 2006, we started combining our sites account billing and support software.  This has helped our support department dramatically, yet has left some of our clients a bit confused of who was actually helping them.  We have always offered our own support, without out-sourcing.  This is something that we pride ourselves on in this day and age of everyone sending their support overseas.

We are now in the last phase of combining all of our hosting customers sites into one branded hosting name:  www.MyPowerHost.com!

We will be adding new servers soon and migrating older accounts to the new machines slowly, providing our unmatched support the whole way.  Everything should be VERY seamless to our clients.

FREE Upgrades for everyone!  What this means is that our older customers will be winning the hosting lottery!  Older basic hosting accounts with 200MB limits will now be upgraded to our “Personal Power Plan” with a whopping 25 Gigabytes!!  Customers that were previously paying over $100 a year for their hosting now are paying our unbelievable price of $24.95 per year.

Are we losing money by doing this?  Well, yes and no.  We feel we are doing our clients a great service by putting their needs in front of our own.  This will lead to maintaining the strong family “bond” we have with our current customers, and still allow a competitive price structure in todays ISP market.

The main reason for doing this is: SIMPLICITY.

Now our focus is on one hosting site, one group of clients to support and building our newly branded name into being one of the largest ISP on the internet!
