Comparison of UNIX hosting prices and domain parking

  Startup

We give discounts up to 35% off the price in the Price comparison (below)Customers who pay ahead by check for long-term plans (6-, 12-, and 24-month hosting commitments) receive discounts of 25, 30, and 35%, respectively.  All we ask is that you pay your outstanding balance, in full, within 21 days after your account is set up.  There is no setup fee for domain transfers and upgrades from the UniWeb Parking plan.
  Are you in a rush to get your domain?  Not a problem.  We take Master Card and Visa, over the web, securely, to establish an account (setup fee and first month must be paid at the time of ordering).  If you pay the balance by check, within 21 days, you get the discount for paying ahead.  If you want us to charge the rest of the balance to your credit card on a monthly basis, we will do so, but without the discount.  We can not charge ahead more than one month, so that's why we ask that you either pay ahead or let us charge you monthly.
  Your own domain and IP address  Unlike resellers who will bundle hosting among customers, thus sharing a common IP address, Open Veld provides full virtual hosting, which means your domain gets its own unique Internet Protocol (IP) address, e.g., 199.236.82.83  This makes it easier to configure mail forwarding and to give you with an individually managed CGI-BIN to run interactive web scripts.  Prices do not include the actual domain name, which you can register through us with Internet Names WorldWide http://inww.com, a division of Melbourne IT.  We will charge you $15 per year for domain regisration.
  You get your own control panel.  Open Veld's Control Panel gives you access to a wide variety of commands, depending on the features of your plan.

Our hosting is value-added.  Open Veld will prepare a quarterly, one-page site appraisal, covering possible areas for site improvement, such as graphics efficiency, browser compatibility, navigation, search engine position, and HTML validation.  This will not be a comprehensive audit of all pages, but rather, priority suggestions towards attaining your web goals.  While statistics and detailed access logs are great, and you'll have them available too, the one-page appraisal will be a thoughtful and personalized partnering of Open Veld's experience towards your success.  You can do the actual design and site updates through either Microsoft FrontPage or any FTP program.  (See our Support section.)  Or you can discuss contracting web design services from Open Veld.

Other plans include the UniWeb domain parking with free parking for 2 years after $25 setup, and domain pointers, at $10 per month.  All can be ordered from our on-line form.  In addition, we have the choice of several e-commerce plans, which can be ordered by discussing with us your needs, either by e-mail to sales1@veld.com or by telephone 954-236-8622.
