Anything which is illegal,

the purpose of online storage, or
files which are linked to your
website for the purpose of
multiple downloads by running a
file download website. And any
script or application which was
designed to run only on a
dedicated server. If in doubt,
check with us first.
In which country is X9
Internet based?
United Kingdom with offices
in Brighton and Haywards
Heath
How long has X9 Internet been
in business?
We started providing hosting
services in 1998.
What is hosting?
Hosting means that you found
a home for your Web site on our
Web servers, which are stored in
a secure, climate controlled
environment and are connected to
the Internet via high speed data
lines.
We can also help you register
your Domain Name, which becomes
your unique Web address. Having
your own Domain Name suggests you
have your own Web space, and
since email can be addressed to
your domain (e.g.
www.yourname.co.uk), you will not
have to announce a new email
address if you change Internet
providers.
Can I host streaming Video and
Audio?
You can host videos in flash
and QuickTime format, as well as
all types of sound files, but
this may change your website into
a multimedia site and these are
not covered by our unlimited web
hosting service. We limit
bandwidth for multimedia websites
to 25 GB per month.
How long after I sign up will
I be able to start uploading my
website?
Within an hour or so, you
should receive an email with your
login details as soon as you have
placed your order.
Do I have unlimited access to
update my pages?
Yes. You can edit your
website any time day or night.
For security reasons we have
introduced file locking. We
require this because of the many
PC viruses circulating that steal
passwords stored in your FTP
programs. We recommend that you
do not store passwords inside
your FTP software for this
reason. Instead, manually
re-enter passwords each time you
need to use FTP.
What do I need to use X9
Internet's web hosting
services?
If you are viewing this page,
then you have all that is
required to take advantage of X9
Internet's unlimited web hosting
services - a computer with an
Internet connection.
Can I offer software downloads
with my X9 Internet account?
Websites which offer
downloads are not covered under
our unlimited web hosting service
because a large demand for
downloads at the same time can
result in poor server performance
which will negatively affect
other websites hosted on the same
server.
If I sign up for Annual
payment, do I have to pay in one
lump sum annually?
Yes. You will automatically
be billed in one lump sum at the
annual rate when you sign up. You
will be billed again that same
lump sum one year from your
anniversary date. If you decide
to move to another ISP before
your annual or 2-yearly payment
has been used up, we will refund
the difference. We do not refund
partial months - if you decide to
cancel you account on the 2nd day
of a particular month, we can not
refund prepaid fees for that
month.
What content is NOT allowed on
your servers?
You may not host adult
content and satanic materials, or
anything illegal. You cannot
offer for download from your site
programs, music and video of
which you are not the copyright
holder. You cannot use your
account as your online hard drive
to store files which are not
connected to your web site.
Accounts which host such content
will have these files deleted or
may be terminated without notice
and without a refund. If in
doubt, always check with us
first.
Do you have a 30 Day Money
Back Guarantee?
Yes. For more information
please see our 30
Day Money Back
Guarantee.
How do I promote my site to
the search engines?
All accounts hosted on our
servers will automatically have
all their web pages indexed by
Google.
Can I track how many people
visit my Web site?
All accounts come with a
powerful Site Statistics Tool in
the Control Panel that shows
hits, referrer logs, country
stats and more! You can even look
at this data in a graphical
format showing daily, monthly and
yearly activity.
What are referral logs and
does X9 Internet offer referral
logs?
Referral logs tell you the
web site from which visitors
reached your page. Using this
information, you can tune your
online advertising to maximise
traffic to your site. We provide
this information in the form of
domain names of the referring
pages (not IP addresses), making
it easier to interpret and
analyse. This is offered under
all our plans in the Control
Panel.
What is considered SPAM?
SPAM is any unsolicited
email. If you are going to send
email to potential customers you
should sign up for an 'opt-in'
email list. These are lists of
email addresses for people who
ask to be emailed to on a
specific topic, and it states
that they signed up to be on that
list at the beginning of the
email. X9 Internet hosting
accounts can not be used for the
purpose of sending bulk
unsolicited mail and are subject
to immediate termination without
refund.
How will I be billed for my
account?
Billing notification is by
email. You can also renew at any
time by login into your
account
manager.
Does X9 Internet provide any
database solutions?
X9 Internet supports MYSQL
and it can be easily set-up and
managed using the MYSQL
administration tool in the
Control Panel.
What platform or Operating
System (OS) does X9 Internet
use?
Our servers run Apache Web
server over Red Hat/Centos Linux
(UNIX) as well as Windows.
Does X9 Internet Internet also
design web pages?
Yes. We also provide
webmaster assistance and full
webmaster services when we create
a site for you using our own web
builders, including the Kopage
point & click builder.
99.9% Uptime
Your website will be hosted
in the cloud from SSD drives (no
moving parts - like a USB stick)
with load balancing to ensure
allways uptime.
30 Day Money Back
Guarantee
When you place an order with
X9 Internet you can do so with
confidence. In the event that our
hosting platform was not quite
what you were looking for, we
will obviously refund your money
in full. Please note that domain
name registrations are not
covered by this guarantee. You
are able to trial our service
without the requirement of a
domain.
For more information see our 30
Day Money Back Guarantee Page
here.
If I cancel before the end of
my hosting term, do I get a
refund?
Refunds are calculated by
charging the monthly rate for the
months you have used and
refunding what balance remains on
your account. We do not refund
partial months.
