Anonymous
FTP Access
Anonymous FTP allows visitors to FTP into
your account and download files without a login or password. People who are uploading
files through anonymous FTP into your account will be required to use a login and
password. You can create a message file that will display your message when someone uses
an FTP software program to access your FTP site.
Autoresponders
Autoresponders reply to incoming e-mail
messages automatically. An autoresponder could be used to send "more
information" to persons that send e-mail to a specific address, such as
info@whateveryouwant.com. If you have ever sent an e-mail and had an automatic reply to
your e-mail (within 5 minutes), you probably received a message automatically generated by
an autoresponder.
Bandwidth (Data Transfer)
Bandwidth is the amount of data a user transfers across our DS3 line. When anyone
accesses a users website, the transfer of data (HTML files, images, sound files, etc.) is
involved. Many hosting services charge you based on your data transfer; however, at
Site0.com, we allow our users to have unlimited data transfer. Thus, we do not penalize
you for having a successful, high volume website!
CGI/Perl
Scripts
A personal cgi-local directory allows users to place their own custom CGI scripts
on their accounts. CGI scripts are often used to accomplish tasks which are not supported
by HTML such as a hit counter or guestbook. The cgi-local directory can be used to set up
scripts that you write or find elsewhere on the web. We offer over 20 pre-configured
scripts, available free for your use. These include a text-based hit counter, a graphical
counter, guestbook, bulletin board, form mailer, random image/sound script, and more.
Custom
Error Pages
Now you can create your own error pages on your
account. Rather than use the same boring error pages that are created by default, you can
customize error pages on your account. Examples include a "404 File Not Found",
a "403 Forbidden", a "500 Internal Server Error", and a "401
Unauthorized" webpage. Of these possibilities, you can specify which error pages are
setup on your account.
Domain Name Registration
Site0.com offers virtual domain hosting
accounts which means you can have your own website address or "domain name"
(example: yourname.com). We can handle U.S. domain name registration or transfers on your
behalf (ie: .com, .net, .org). The InterNIC charges $70 to register a domain name which
covers the first two years. They currently bill at a rate of $35 per year thereafter.
Site0.com can also serve non-U.S. domain names as well. We can provide you with the
appropriate nameserver to assist you in registering a non-U.S. domain name with
your local NIC. You can also have additional domain names point to your account for a small additional charge.
E-Mail
Forwarding
Once your domain name is active worldwide, you can receive all e-mail addressed to
your domain such as webmaster@yourname.com, sales@yourname.com, etc. By default, all
e-mail addressed to your domain will forward to your real e-mail address (POP3 account)
which is your_login@yoursite.com. For convenience, specific mail forwarding options are
available if you need specific addresses each to be forwarded to different addresses on
the internet. For example, e-mail addressed to webmaster@yourname.com could forward to an
account at AOL, but sales@yourname.com could forward to a Prodigy e-mail account.
Java Chatrooms / Message Boards
FastChat is a real-time, live chat interface you can quickly and easily add to your
web site. It is written in JAVA so it is compatible with the vast majority of web browsers
without the need for any plug-ins. Clients of Site0.com can enjoy unlimited Java Chatrooms
on their account for no additional charge.
-zz-File Manager
File Manager allows users to access their files on the server using Netscape
Navigator, Internet Explorer or any other browser rather than the File Transfer Protocol.
Users can upload, delete, view, and change the permissions on files and directories. The
File Manager is integrated into The Personal Control Panel.
File
Transfer Protocol
You will have unlimited access to your
account via File Transfer Protocol 24-hours a day to setup and maintain your web site. You
can work on HTML documents, graphics, and scripts locally and then upload files to your
web site when ready. An FTP tutorial is available in our online support.
Microsoft®
FrontPage® 98
We can install FrontPage extensions on your
account. This allows you to use the easy-to-use Microsoft FrontPage program to create and
maintain your web site. You may request that FrontPage extensions be installed within your
web site when placing an order for our hosting services or contact our technical
support directly. Microsoft provides
direct support for all FrontPage users.
