Email Accounts Our Web site packages let you set up multiple email accounts and access them directly from our POP server using a third-party email program, or via the Web through our Web-based email interface.

Forwards Email forwards enable you to have email messages redirected to a specific email account. For example, you can set up the email account (sales@your-new-domainname.com) to forward all messages to your account (you@your-new-domainname.com). These forward can be added or deleted at any time.

Auto-Responders All email accounts may also be set up to automatically respond to incoming messages. This is a good feature to use if you don't check your mail frequently, or if you would like to create an automated response to frequently asked questions, such as pricing or hours of operation.

Back to Top

Anyone@ Allows you to collect mis-addressed messages(wrongname@your-new-domainname.com) and have them delivered to a specific email account (you@your-new-domainname.com).

Disk Space The amount of disk space you have determines the maximum size of your site. Every page, graphic or video in your site occupies disk space on a server. You can always buy additional disk space if you need to expand your site beyond these limits.

CGI-BIN + Free scripts and e-mail form All web accounts come with full access to their own cgi-bin directory plus Free scripts and e-mail form. Your web site can be fully interactive by using the power of custom programs executed from your cgi-bin directory.

Unlimited FTP and Bandwidth

We allow you to update your site 24/7 using an FTP (File Transfer Protocol) Client. This is a program which allows you to connect to our server and upload your files. Town USA will set you up with a Free Linux file manager or you can use FTP software. This will allow you to update your Web Site yourself. We provide a free file manager on all lunix hosting through the web console.

We are redundantly connected (Redundant 3-OC3 Internet connections) to the Internet backbone via OC 48 UUNET and Teleglobe, the largest Internet Service Providers in the world. This means speed and reliability should not be a concern of yours.

Data Transfer

Data transfer is affected by two things: the number of visitors to your site, and the amount of data your site pushes to those visitors. If you have lots of visitors, lots of data (pictures, videos, and sound are typically large data files), or both, your data transfer numbers will be higher. This is the total amount of data (including graphics and HTML web pages) which can be uploaded and downloaded from your site each month. It is a rough estimator of how many visitors your hosting plan can accomodate. For example, on an average size website with a moderate amount of graphics, it has been our experience that 750 megs of transfer can accomodate well over 4,000 visitors per month.
