LunarPages - Webhosting for Real Webmasters

LunarPages - Webhosting for Real Webmasters

If, like me, you are a real webmaster needing plently of disk space to host multiple websites under one account, with a full featured cPanel control panel, look no farther than LunarPages; Webhosting for real Webmasters like you and me!

Unlimited storage and bandwidth for $4.95/mo!

I just recently moved all of my websites to LunarPages, onto a shared Basic hosting plan. The move was remarkably smooth and uneventful, with everything functioning just like it had on my previous host, Bluehost. This included all of my .htaccess IP blocklists and mod_rewrite directives. The entire operation took one full day of my time and involved uploading almost 1 gigabyte of files and folders, setting executable file attributes as required, recreating and importing my MovableType blog database, setting up some Apache handlers, importing my numerous POP3 and forwardering email accounts and spam filters, adding on parked and separate domains, final testing of cgi contact forms, hit counters and server side includes, then changing the Name Servers at my domain Registrar; Dotster. Within two days most of the Domain Name Servers (DNS) had been updated and by the third day the DNS changes were completed world-wide.

LunarPages offers several hosting options

If you have a personal or informational website that does not require its own dedicated server, or root access to the operating system, Lunarpages Basic Web Hosting is your best and least expensive option. See the features of the Basic web hosting package below.

Although most websites run fine on Apache based servers, running on a Linux operating system, some websites use special scripting, like Active Server Pages, that only runs properly on Windows Servers. LunarPages offers an excellent Windows hosting package, for around 10 bucks a month (with the first 3 months free!). All hosting plans come with priority 24 hour support.

When you have a large website, with thousands of daily visitors, you may overwhelm a shared server, which houses hundreds of other websites. In this case you are better off renting space on a VPS server. LunarPages leases Virtual Private Servers for $39.95 a month!

If your website is for business use and you intend to sell products, you will need a secure server and a personal SSL certificate. To avoid having other people's actions interfer with your hopefully busy website, a fully dedicated server may be your best option. Lunarpages has Dedicated Servers starting at $99.00 per month.
