Can I
have an email address?
Yes!
You can have your own email address, such as info@yourdomain.com

either forward your email to a current email address that
you are using, or we can give you your own mailbox that you
can access from your email program.

Do you do Spam and Virus Filtering?
Yes! We have the
best spam filtering around! We are using a spam filtering appliance manufactured
by a small company in Ontario that filters spam expertly. The company boasts
that they get about 1 false positive for every 100,000 emails, but we have found
that the filter performs even better than that! Check out this page for some
stats: http://spamfilter.bbexpo.com

What
if my domain is already registered?
We can easily do
a domain transfer.
Do I have to have a
listing on BB Expo?
No, that is not a
requirement for getting this sweet deal with domain hosting.
However, if you have a domain, you are obviously serious about
promoting your B&B. Have a look at BB Expo's excellent
suite of features and you will see that it would be a great
tool to have in your advertising toolkit!
Can I
change my own site? Do you support Front Page and FTP?
Yes!,
we support Front Page server extensions and FTP. When you
host your website with BB Expo, you do not have to sign your
life over to us. You can keep your own designer, do it
yourself or we can take care of changing your website for
you at our current rates.
Can I
get statistics on my website?
Yes!
We keep log records for your website and we will provide
detailed monthly reports detailing the traffic to your
website. The cost for this service is FREE
Does your server
support CGI scripts?
No, we do not. Two reasons
for this one:
1) These are typically found
on servers running different software than we have.
2) You never know how secure these programs are.
Typically B&B websites
need little scripts for page counters or sending email or a
guest book. If you have special needs for a particular
script, let us know what they are and we will probably write
something for you.
Do you
do search engine promotion?
We are quite
successful at getting good search engine rankings with the
major search engines. For a small fee ($49.95) we will
lovingly hand-submit your website to several major
directories, and use a script to submit to a couple dozen
others.
No reputable
company will lead you to believe that it is of any benefit to
submit your website to 1000 search engines. There are really
only a half-dozen or so of any importance. Those are the ones that
we are interested in.
If you give a
man a fish, you feed him for a day. If you teach him to
fish, you feed him for life.
We would love to
"teach you to fish." Search engine submission is
not a mystery and we would be glad to show you how to do it.
Why
would I want my own domain anyways?
Having your own domain is like
having your own acreage on the internet, not just an apartment or little space
in someone else's building. When you have your own domain,
-
you can give it a name that
reflects your style and personality
-
you can have an email address
that never changes even if you change internet service providers
-
you don't have to share your
space with the competition
-
you stand a better chance of
ranking well with the search engines
-
you have full control over the
content you want to display on your site.
-
you can design it any way you
want
Do you
do custom design too?
Yes, we do. Our
prices are very competitive and our work is first rate. We are
in business to serve the B&B industry and we will work
well within your budget. Have a look at our
portfolio for an idea of what you can expect.
What kind of
equipment do you have?
We are running a server with
an Pentium 4 2.66 ghz processor and 1024mb of RAM. It is connected
to an E10 line. In a word, it is FAST.
The operating system is
Windows 2003 Server. The web server software is Microsoft IIS
6.0
