Website Hosting

In 1998, 305 Spin invested in web hosting operations in order to provide better server side mechanics and platforms more suited to serving dynamic, multimedia and e-commerce websites.

While ISP's and large hosting farms provide platforms that may be low cost, they typically are inefficient or inadequate for most commercial websites. It is not unusual for an ISP host to have over a 1000 websites hosted on one server. While this makes sense financially for the host, it is not in the best interest of the client who wants to have their website available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

At 305 Spin, we strive to provide the best server-website combination that we can. And just like a classroom with fewer students per teacher, our websites function better with fewer sites per server.

By hosting a website on a server that best suites the necessary mechanics for content development, updates and/or multimedia the client is assured that their website will be served to the Internet as intended. It also provides a better value to the client both in development and in maintenance of the website.

We also provide domain email hosting with a weighted spam/junkmail filtering system. Webmail as well as POP, SMTP and LDAP services are available.

To further insure website reliability, 305 Spin only hosts client websites and does not provide hosting services only.

Our network and bandwidth infrastructure consists of:

• Dedicated 25 pair circuit (capacity up to 25 T1’s) from AT&T main switch (located across street) into our NOC. Dedicated Fiber Optic circuit from MNA (located across street) with current capacity up to 100 megs, expandable to 600 megs.
• Dedicated AC unit for NOC.
• Natural Gas Generator for NOC and all office lights and HVAC.
• Redundant server, router and appliance resources across both networks.
• Discrete Development/Staging servers and Live Server networks.
• 24/7 monitoring and security
• Best of Breed Hardware – Dell servers and Cisco firewalls and routers
• Dot Defender website intrusion detection

Everything is here. We don’t have to call somebody else to find out what is going on with your email or website. With our early warning alerts for website errors and other potential issues, we usually know when something is awry before you do. This allows us to fix things faster and hopefully prevent an issue from escalating.

And we answer our phone. No multi-levels of phone menu’s and messages. Just a real person ready to help.
