HTN Cloud Hosting brings you the reliability of a fully managed platform... the performance of dedicated server... sized perfectly to suit your needs... and all the features required to effectively run your business. Better yet, Hen's Teeth Network understands cloud computing; we have been doing it since 2002, long before "Cloud" became the latest fashionable buzzword.
Cloud computing differs from traditional web hosting in just one fundamental way: you pay for what you use, much like you pay for electricity. This pay-as-you-go philosophy manifests itself in a wide selection of sizes and in the separation of data transfer charges from other charges. If you have a small site with a lot of traffic, you pay for a small computer with a lot of data transfer. Similarly, if your site is busy in December but relatively quiet the other months of the year, you only pay for the high bandwidth in December when you use it.
Look beyond the bare numbers when choosing a hosting company. Ask questions such as:
The Stratus family works perfectly for brochure sites, blogs, and e-commerce sites which do not need to demonstrate PCI compliance. The Cirrus family satisfies more demanding needs including PCI compliant e-commerce, higher traffic, and dedicated CPU and RAM to assure fast response.
