Lunarpages Hosting

Lunarpages Features 600 MB of disk space and 40 GB of bandwidth is considered large for storage and disk space for the price. The best band width for the buck.

Customer Support Center Several different ways of customer support are offered. Toll Free Support - Call 1-877-LUNARPAGES if you need a phone support. If you stay outside of US, you can't dial the toll free number. Luckily they provide another support line via 1-714-521-8150 (toll call). I have visited there offices several times and was impressed by the amount of phone support given in a signal day.

Email Support - No matter if you are a current customer or just need to ask pre-signup question. Simply email support@lunarpages.com you will get a helpful reply you will get the answer you need. The Center suggests that you send them an email to see how effective they are. You will be impressed at the response time. LunarForums - You will meet many happy customers in the forum. Only Lunar provide forums to let their customers help each other by communicating. You can find answers to your questions. Visit LunarForums.

Software Updates - Lunar is the most effective host in keeping their software up to date. Software that is updated to includes PHP, PHPMyAdmin, MySQL, Perl, Linux Kernel and others. This is one of the reason why the Center recommends them so highly. It is frustrating when your host is not updating their software. And by the time you realize it, you have already paid for the hosting. Lunar is at the top of their game.

Sub-Domains and Domain Pointers - plans offered come with 15 sub-domains and 3 domain pointers for FREE.

Free Web Forum - The chat room is PhpMyChat, it also requires 1 free MySQL database. You can use the simple Entropy chat room or Java based Melange chat room that doesn't require any MySQL database. You can setup your own forum and chat room easily in their powerful CPanel 5 control panel. The forum is the popular PhpBB, it requires 1 free MySQL database when you set it up.

CPanel Control Panel - Lunar uses CPanel as the web site control panel. From our experience, CPanel is far more user friendly and powerful then other control panels. It lets you control a lot of things which includes email accounts, MySQL databases, custom error messages, password protected directories, setting up forum, shopping cart, chat room, subdomains, MIME types, apache handlers, search engine submit, free CGI scripts and more.

Web Referral Statistics - They do not limit your maximum referrals shown in your web statistics. Almost all other web hosts who use Webalizer webstats list only your top 30 referrals. Most of your top 30 referrals will be pages of your own site.

Mailing List - Web hosts today seldom support mailing list. With Lunarpages.com you can create 1 mailing list. (major bonus)

MySQL Monitor - You can connect to Lunar MySQL server remotely using MySQL monitor. Most hosting companies don't allow this.

Order Process Your site account is set up in the same day of your order (except weekends). When sighing up make sure you include a valid telephone number as they will call you to confirm your order (even if you reside outside of US). Once they have confirmed your order by phone, your account will be setup promptly.
