WHAT IS HOSTING?
Hosting is an industry term for having your web site viewable on the Internet. At CHIROPRACTORSITES we like to call it "service and maintenance" because we are able to put it all together into a top of the line package for our clients. CHIROPRACTORSITES' data centers feature state of the art hardware and software to ensure that your site is online 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

CHIROPRACTORSITES support programs include hosting and much more, including live tech support via an 800# and unlimited access to your personal support representatives to answer questions, educate you on the Internet, keep you informed on your web site's performance and ensure that you are getting the most out of your site. Additionally, you have an unlimited license to our proprietary software and the peace of mind that your site is being hosted on our state of the art servers.

HOW DO CHIROPRACTORSITES SERVERS WORK?
When you join on with CHIROPRACTORSITES, we create space on one of our high-powered Linux servers for your website. We then point the Domain Name you selected to that space. Since we do not provide local dial-up access, our servers are not congested with local inbound dial-up traffic. In fact, having your web site hosted on our machines is better than hosting it at your local ISP since you don't have to relocate your web site or change your e-mail whenever you change providers.

The CHIROPRACTORSITES system splits a single high-powered webserver into multiple websites. Each website gets it's own set of virtual services that you may customize to your needs. When a visitor types your domian name into thier browser, the CHIROPRACTORSITES system will determine what site to send them to. Every website has it's own configuration files for it's set of services. Also, each website logs hits to your log directory so you can check stats and print out reports.

Each of our webservers are utilized to 50 percent of their capacity. This allows for spikes and peaks in traffic and resource consumption to be handled with ease. The load on the server is closely monitored to have an total hit count of 250,000 to 500,000 hits a day. At this level the load is kept significantly below the capacity of the system. The number of actual websites located on any one server varies according to the amount of traffic those websites generate. If any one site has too much traffic, we move it to a server with less traffic. If any one website requires the majority of a webservers resources, we will recommend getting a dedicated server.
