We Take Care of Everything
Hostess' Virtual Web Hosting program gets your Web site up and running without pain. Most Web hosting services forget that the purpose of a Web site is to spread the word about your business. While they're busy talking bits and bytes, you're just interested in getting your Web site running. We've taken care of all the hassles so you don't have to. Every component of our service has been thoroughly tested and painstakingly researched to give you the most advanced and worry-free Web hosting service available. You don't need to think about hardware, software, or anything else. We take care of everything so you can concentrate on your business, not your Web site.
Compete With the Big Guys
Your clients and prospects will think you have your own in-house Web server! Now, even the smallest company can have the same Internet presence as a Fortune 500 firm. In addition, you get your own virtual mail and FTP (File Transfer Protocol) servers. All your mail will be routed through a server like "mail.yourcompany.com", giving your company the appearance of a larger firm. You can add unlimited mailboxes as you need them, quickly and easily, at no extra charge! Finally, your virtual FTP server (ftp.yourcompany.com) lets you offer FTP to customers for anonymous uploading and downloading of files from your site.
Hostess' Virtual Web Hosting program gives you your own virtual Web, FTP, and mail servers in one nice, tidy package. With this popular program, you get your own domain name which means a Web address like "www.yourcompany.com."
Cut Out the Middleman
Our servers are connected to the Internet via a high-speed T1 line linked directly to the Chicago NAP (Network Access Point). This means your data travels the shortest distance to reach the "backbone" of the Internet, a feature most of our competitors can't offer. Most hosting companies route data through a private or public network before reaching the NAP, which can slow performance. We cut out the middleman and give your site a direct connection.
Rest Easy
Your business is safe with us. Our technicians keep our servers in tip-top condition. With less than 1% downtime, we make sure our servers keep spreading your word, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. As an added precaution, all servers are protected by an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS), and all sites hosted with Hostess are backed up every night.

Take Your Site to the Next Level
Some sites require more advanced features. Hostess servers have the ability to host secure sites through SSL and S-HTTP so you can accept credit cards right from your Web site. You can also choose from other options such as online database connectivity, a search engine, or even a message board. Ask us for details and pricing.
