How many hits can my website support?
The bandwidth provided to your website is unlimited in that we do not charge you any type of fee based on the amount of network traffic generated by your site. You can rest assured that there are no hidden charges of any kind based on the amount of traffic to or from your website. However, like all hardware, our server system does have its limitations. If a particular website causes a physical machine to experience poor performance, slowness, or other problems because of an unusually high amount of traffic or activity, we may at our discretion contact the owner of the site and discuss other alternatives or take other necessary steps to ensure stability and reliability to all of our customers. Our servers are designed to handle a small to medium hit load (under 30,000 hits a day). If a site begins to receive over 30,000 hits a day web page response will begin to be affected. For web sites expecting large number of hits, you should consider purchasing a dedicated server. Dedicated servers can accommodate well over 1 million hits a day.
 
How long does it take to register a domain name?
All .com, .net, and .org Internet domain names must be registered with Internic. Because of the amount of domains that Ace-Webs sends to Internic for registration, the registration process has been automated and usually takes just a couple days.
 
Who do I contact at Ace-Webs with a particular question or problem?
If you need to contact Ace-Webs, please visit our Contact page.
 
Can I use my site to host adult content? Ace-Webs doesn't allow adult material of any kind on their servers. Please see our Usage Policies.
 
Are there any restrictions to the content I can put on my site?
Please browse our Usage Policies if you have questions about what type of content we allow on our servers.
 
Does Ace-Webs take care of obtaining/registering domain names for its customers, and if so what is the cost?
When you first order your website through Ace-Webs, we take the information you provide on our order form and automatically forward it to Internic. Internic will then register your domain name for you, and bill you separately ($70) for that domain name.
 
Do your servers support International domain names?
Yes, it is possible to register international domain names and use them with our servers. However, we cannot register these names for you. We are only allowed to register .com, .org, and .net domain names. If you would like to use a different extension, you must register the domain name in your country and do the following:
1) Have the organization that registers your domain name use our name servers so that our DNS servers will handle all the DNS work for your virtual server. Here is the Name Server information you will need to do this.
Domain servers in listed order:
Primary Name Server
Primary Server Hostname....: ns1.nameserve.net
Primary Server Netaddress..: 207.159.128.3
Secondary Name Server
Secondary Server Hostname..: ns2.nameserve.net
Secondary Server Netaddress: 207.159.128.11
 
Can I order a Silver or Bronze account and upgrade to a Gold account at a later time?
Yes. Upgrading from any of our smaller packages to a Gold package is simple and painless. To upgrade, simply send an E-mail to service@ace-webs.com and tell us you would like to upgrade from your current website to your desired site option. Make sure to include your domain name and we'll be in touch!
 
Will VServers act as my ISP?
No, we do not provide dial-up access to the internet. You will need an account with a local ISP in order to access the Internet.
 
How do I switch over from my current provider with the least amount of down time possible?
Switching over from another provider is no problem, and if done right can nearly eliminate downtime if you follow these easy steps:
Order an Ace-Webs website
Transfer data from old site to new Ace-Webs site.
Setup email addresses, cgi's, make any configurations necessary on your new website.
Confirm that everything on your website is fully operational.
Fill out a modify request form and send it in to internic. (Contact our DNS department at dns@ace-webs.com if you need assistance with this)
As soon as the domain name is pointed to your new website, (you will get confirmation from Internic) cancel services with your old provider.

Can I use CGI's with my website?
Each new Ace-Webs website comes with its own private CGI-BIN directory that you control. You are welcome to utilize any of your own scripts. Please keep in mind that some cgi or perl scripts can be very resource intensive if they are poorly written. If we find any scripts that are using up too many server resources, we may contact you and ask you to discontinue use of that script or modify it so that it isn't so resource-intensive.
 
Can I use Perl?
Yes, Perl 5 comes standard on our servers.
 
Can JAVA be used?
Compiled JAVA applets and ActiveX components may be used on your website.
