key22 goodking hosting
reliability, availability and good support
key22 goodking work runs stable Linux Servers located in Southern Germany. In general we provide a permanent and satisfying connectivity, which pleases you and your customers. We appreciate if you decide for our Servers - however, if you want to check for yourself you should obey a few rules we had to learn over the recent years...
:: Cheap is not always cheap ::
There are very seductive offers available starting off at 0 US$ a month. Even there might be some very rare exceptions - mostly you'll be lost once something is malfunctioning. Support is always human and therfore cost-intense... Every hosting system will eventually malfunction. By then you'll learn about the qualities of your host. Quick and qualified support teams are the backbone of any high level hosting system.
:: Backup your Files ::
Whatever is promised by your host, never trust them on the safety of your data. Backing up your files is one of the most important duties if your serviced by key22 goodking work. If you serve yourself do it yourself - but - do it! Loss of data is loss of money!
:: Access and Speed ::
There are little tools to ping and trace URLs (web-sites). This way it's possible to measure and compare the speed of data travelling - from the host to your machine. Availability or Up-time of your site should be "guaranteed" by 99.5 to 99.9% (there's no such thing like 100%).
:: Features ::
Most hosting companies offer a reasonable variety of features included in their packages. In many cases you can order on top - if you really need one specific feature such as real audio/video, SSL (ServerSideIncludes), Frontpage extensions, PHP, MySQL or similar. However it shows that you're mostly better adviced to choose another package or another host, since add-ons are apparently expensive (installed once - charged every month!)
:: To Know your Needs ::
Before choosing a host you should be clear about what you want. key22 goodking work is pleased to help. Eventhough websites tend to grow with time, we can - based on solid experience - advice you to choose the "right" host and the appropriate package for the time being. And upgrades - believe us - are easy...
