of housing and maintaining files for one or more Web sites.
New York Internet provides the computer space for your
Web site files and its top tier dual OC-12 connection

and renewed for terms of one to ten years. There are no
any other additional fees. This is done through online
software program that uses superior registrant identification
and authentication processes, to prevent any security
issues. The client has the capability of transferring
or modifying his/her domain record through the online

 NYI's

websites. It displays, graphically and numerically hourly,
daily, and monthly average traffic. It also shows what
pages are mostly visited, what keywords did the site respond
to on search engines, and many more useful data. See
more on how to interpret your stats
All Hosting accounts clients receive NYI's custom-built
Web Mail together with the package. This is an email agent
that runs on the Web 24/7/365 and available from anywhere
in the world.
NYI offers an option of adding the database feature to
your site. MySQL refers to the open standards database
that allows you to build elaborate database functionality
into your website. This feature is for advanced users
only as NYI does not offer support for troubleshooting
and writing database code. You may find more information
for MySQL at http://www.mysql.com.
 With
NYI's hosting package, you may order up to 500 unique
email accounts that you will be able to manage through
NYI's custom-built Control Panel. Choose the quota that
you would like to allocate for these email accounts. With
the Control Panel, you will be able to see how much of
the space has been used up and how much is still left.
Another option of NYI's Hosting solution is CGI Scripting.
CGI Scripts such as Perl may be used by advanced programmers
to increase the site's interactivity. You choose the level
of script frequency as well as script complexity. Third-party
scripts may be purchased and installed on NYI's web servers.
However, there are no guarantees of the viability of these
scripts. Also, there may be additional fees associated
with script installations.
SSL Encryption refers to a "key" that is purchased
from a third-party source such as Verisign/Thawte. These
keys are particularly useful in commerce-enabled sites
or any site that requires inputting of credit card numbers
or other sensitive information. The key encrypts data
traveling from the site visitor to the webserver or any
destination, increasing risk and reducing fraudulent use
of sensitive information.
