From domain names to databases, your web assets need to be stored, served and secured. We will work with you to find the right options for your budget and your ambition!


Feature Matrix

When looking for hosting, make sure you have enough power under the hood, but don't pay for power you'll never use. If one of our plans is not a fit for you, please contact us. We'll work with you to find a custom plan that gets you web enabled without breaking the bank.

Windows users - These plans are primarily focused on Unix/Linux server based features. We offer similar plans for Windows. Please contact us for more details.

With all plans you may optionally purchase additional resources should you need it. You may incrementally purchase additional storage, bandwidth etc. to scale up your hosting plan as needed.

All plans are subject to our use, privacy and terms of service policies. Please review our Terms of Service for details.

Some plans allow for purchasing additional disk space and/or bandwidth. Prices may vary, but you may expect to pay approximately $5.00/10GB of extra traffic capacity per month, and $7.50/5GB of extra disk space. Note that not all plans support this incremental option.

Basic

First time website owners, bloggers and freelancers will all find our Basic plan an affordable way to jump into the websphere. This plan enables you to get up and running quickly with a simple but functional website. We'll install free open source packages for you, such as Wordpress or Joomla to allow you to get going quickly without having engineer a site from scratch.

You always have full FTP access and can author your own site, or have Little m Design help you with graphic or web page design. Once your site is up, you can use FTP enabled authoring tools such as Contribute or Dreamweaver to update your site on your own. Tools like Wordpress and Joomla allow you to easily edit your site directly over the web, so you don't even need an authoring tool to sustain your website.

This plan is intended for reasonably static web sites, with a few pages, and do not require much disk space, bandwidth or application engineering.


Intermediate/Advanced

The intermediate/advanced plan builds on the basic plan by expanding your available resources, giving you more direct control over your account, greatly improving security, and allowing you to run custom applications. Little m Design will work with you to ensure that JVMs or other custom applciations can be hsoted in a way that meets your needs but does not exceed the capacity alotted to you.

This plan is ideal for small businesses; more power, more results, equals more customers reached. If you expect your web site to scale up to more than a few pages, conduct e-commerce, involve custom developed solutions or make heavy use of CMS systems, this plan is the right choice.


Enterprise

When you want maximum results, you want the power to make it happen. The Enterprise plan is a highly custom plan. We will work with you to provision a server that is operated either directly by you, or administered by Little m Design. Your server will not be shared with other clients, and your security is greatly increased over both Basic and intermedaite/advanced plans.

This plan is for small to mid sized businesses who are actively growning and require serious horse power for they're web needs. Basic lights on costs for this plan will range from $500/yr to $2000/yr depending on the capacity options you select. Additional costs include domain names, typically $10/yr/domain, SSL certificates (min. $50/IP address) and administration/support fees - rough $80/hr as needed.
