Windows Shared & Reseller Hosting

Hosting


Can I host flash contents in my site ?

Yes, you can host flash files like .swf in your website. But make sure that it is optimized as flash files take more time to download. If you wish to host .flv files, please choose a media streaming account rather than normal shared reseller account as it will not support such a file format.

I want administrator or root access for hosting my website, which package should I choose ?

Administrator or root access is available in cloud servers, dedicated servers. If your website requires such an access to host it, better choose such a package. Shared hosting accounts will not have root or administrator access.

I want to share data with my clients or within my organization. Can I use reseller hosting to do that ?

No. Shared hosting or reseller hosting accounts can be strictly used for websites only. For data sharing, please purchase BIZ Secure FTP accounts.
