FatCow Plan: 1500 GB disk space, 15000 GB bandwidth @
$4.83/month
Price Value
FatCow Hosting is a one-plan-fits-all web host, eschewing
multiple-tiered hosting plans for a singular plan that aims to fill all
user needs. For a $4.83 per month (that works out to
$57.96/year), you get 1,500 gigs of disk space per month, 15,000
gigs of data transfer per month, plus a free website builder, e-store
builder, blogs, forums, hit counters, surveys and polls, and user-friendly
wizards for adding on useful open source applications for making your site
even more feature-filled and interactive.
Customers get a 35% discount on domain names with hosting for unlimited
domains under one account, as well as unlimited email accounts. Also
included with the
FatCow Hosting plan are web analytics and site diagnostics tools, FTP
access, support for Microsoft FrontPage extensions, ecommerce tools,
programming script support (incl. PHP, CGI, MySQL, Python, and more), and
online advertising credits and marketing tools like RatePoint Feedback
Service and HubSport's Web Site Grader.
And
if you're looking for a little more oomph from your web host or web
hosting plan, Fat Cow offers numerous add-on services, from website
management to email to ecommerce to programming scripting to website
marketing, and more.
Control Panel
FatCow provides its own proprietary control panels for its customers to
use in managing all their website's needs. This control panel breaks all
website creation, management, and administrative duties down into the bare
essentials, with all tasks intuitively categorized and listed alongside a
color-coded button indicating whether or not each item is currently
enabled. Alongside the top of the control panel is a convenient shortcuts
menu, and a handy sidebar reveals useful website and web hosting stats
(such as disk space, bandwidth, and mailboxes used and available).
Customer Support
FatCow Hosting staffs a 1-888 number for toll-free telephone support,
as well as a live web chat support service. There's email help too, for
those not-so-urgent queries. The FatCow HelpDesk also features a bevy of
self-help options, such as a Knowledgebase, an FAQ library, tutorials, and
more.
Reliability
FatCow customers enjoy multi-gigabit connections on a load-balanced
platform with data loss protection provided by server backups performed
daily. Uninterrupted power is ensured with backup generator system, and
the data center facilities and all system hardware and software is
monitored 24/7.
FatCow Hosting service is backed by a 30-day money-back guarantee.
