Q: Why do you not allow shell access? I want to run an IRC server

A. IRC is not allowed on our servers. Please see the terms of service. We'ld like to have some control over the programs that are being run on our servers. In the interest of all customers on the servers we do not give out shell access on accounts.

Q: What is your policy on bandwidth?

A: We do not limit your transfer rate only the amount of data transferred per month. How much this is depends on the plan you signed up for. We do not throttle (limit) your bandwidth at all.
[home]

Q: What happens if I go over my allowed transfer limit?

A: Your site will be automatically deactivated until midnight of the first day of the next calender month. Warning emails are being send out when you have used up 80% of your bandwidth limit and will continue to be send out once a day until either a new month starts or you reach 100% bandwidth usage at which point the site will automatically be deactivated. (Another email notice will be send about this as well)

So if you want to prevent your site from being temporarily down you will have enough time to take measures (contact us, upgrade, purchase additional datatransfer etc)

Q: Why do you not offer unlimited traffic/bandwidth usage?

A: Don't believe in unlimited traffic. That's a fake. This is not possible. No provider can really offer this. We have to pay for each GB our network uses, so we have to charge you also.

Yes. We use cPanel 8. You can find the documentation to cPanel at www.wbws.net/support.html
