iHost is one of the green web hosting companies that realized the negative impact caused by the hosting servers and hence switched to green methods of hosting. It is highly unlikely that they would have installed wind or solar energy in their data center as that tends to an impossible task, so instead, they have purchased 100% renewable energy credits provided by renewable energy sources like wind and solar energy. These credits have been certified by Green-e, BEF and What is Green Energy. How do renewable energy credits work? Well, the supplier of these credits calculates the total energy produced by this hosting company and then pumps back 100% of that much of green energy back into the power grid. This effort has effectively removed around 100,000 kgs (200,000 lbs) of CO2 and other greenhouse gases from the atmosphere. That is equivalent to 20 cars off the street for a whole year!
All the customers of iHost have an opportunity to put up various icons or banners on their website that show that their website is hosted by a 100% green web hosting company. Must add that these icons are pretty too!
At present, iHost is offering a new special price of $3.95/ month in place of all their web hosting plans. That is quite a discount and much sort after. This plan includes unlimited disk space, unlimited data transfer, unlimited domain names, free registration for 1 domain, personal website tools, free setup, unlimited email accounts, InDesign Dreamweaver and Flash support and the list goes on.
The customer support provided by ihost.sh is US based and available 24/7/365 through the methods of phone, email and live chat. They also provide a 30-day money back guarantee where if a customer is unsatisfied with their services, they can close their account for a full refund within 30 days of the purchase.
iHost has a strong believe in the quality of its services and hence gives the top 5 reasons why one should choose it. These are:
1) It’s Customer Support is one of the best
2) It provides reliable web hosting which is monitored 24/7/365
3) It has state-of-the-art Data Centers housed in North America
4) It provides the best web- based control panel and site building tools
5) It is an award winning company.
These reasons are very much valid and credible.
