Advanced Hosting may be the best solution for you if you have more traffic than Intermediate Hosting can handle. Also, this is the best solution to choose if you want to decrease the chances of customers reaching a crashed site. With Advanced Hosting, you have two dedicated web servers (instead of just one), as well as a load balancing server.
Advanced Hosting uses the load balancer to distribute web traffic between the two web servers, which increases the performance of your site. Also, because you have two web servers, if one happens to go down or malfunction, the load balancer will just redirect the traffic to the remaining server. This makes for a more reliable site, and happier customers.
Advanced Hosting Features:
- Increased server security with dedicated firewall.
- Two web servers, with up to 500 GB of bandwidth allowance per month, and one database server.
- Load balancing between the two web servers via a Redundant Shared LVS server, utilizing IP Load Balance, intelligent load balancing (as opposed to the less effective “round robin” balancing), and true fail-over.
- Regular back-up processed daily with Symantec’s Veritas Backup software.
Software/Hardware Requirements:
- Two web servers: 120X Series, featuring XEON 3.0 Ghz / 1 MB Cache, 800 Mhz FSB; 1024 MB DDR2 RAM, and 2 x 73 GB SCSI (RAID 1). Compatible operating systems include either Windows or RedHat ES.
- Database server: 220X Series, featuring Dual XEON 3.0 Ghz / 1 MB Cache, 800 Mhz FSB; 2048 MB DDR2 RAM, and 3 x 73 GB SCSI (RAID 5). Compatible operating systems include either Windows or RedHat ES.
- Load Balancing Server: Redundant Shared LVS load balancing server, featuring IP Load Balance, intelligent balancing, and true fail-over.

AGENCY SELECTION PREPARATION SETTING UP A PROVEN PROCESS TO CREATE AN OPTIMAL AGENCY RELATIONSHIP
Thousands of agencies provide the same services in the same geographic location and within the same industry. How do you choose the best for your company or project? Below are four easy steps to get you started.
- Visualize your ideal: Develop a list of important skills that your new agency partner should possess, then select a short list of the five to ten agencies most likely to meet your requirements.
- Level the playing field: Invite each agency on your short list to present a proposal to your organizations selection team, giving each agency the same information to respond to.
- Try it on: Select two or three final candidates. Consider potential team interaction and corporate culture compatibility. Meet each potential agency to ensure a clear understanding of your organization and its needs.
- Ask for directions (and give some too): In the course of each review, set clear expectations for both potential partners and the selection team, and spot-check these expectations at each step in the process. Kickoff the relationship with well defined processes, goals and timelines.
