Spry Web Hosting
June 19, 2008
What is so remarkable about Spry of Seattle, Washington? No, this isn’t a reference to a new drug. Rather, Spry is a company that aims to become the top web hosting provider around for VPS web hosting solutions. Spry wants to be the best at what it does: provide solutions that are easy to use yet deliver the goods for the clients. And Spry intends to keep using its talents to produce new value-added features and boost usability of its service solutions, so that it will be on top of its game even without a wonder drug.
As proof that it is definitely on the right track, Spry managed to snare two awards in 2006 (after more than 15 years of being in the business) both from Host Review.com:
- August 2006 as recipient of the Best Dedicated Server Provider Award (awarded to its subsidiary VPSLink)
- Recognized as the #1 VPS Host for all of 2006.
Features
Spry offers the Shared Hosting service (which is basically the least costly web hosting service an entry-level website owner can get.) Spry makes it clear this service is perfect for website owners who have to stay within a precise budget, and for those who have minor technical needs for web hosting in the first place.
Under the Shared Hosting service, you can make your choice between four plans: Plan 1, Plan 2, Plan 3, and Plan 4.
- Plan 1 will give you 100 megabytes of disk space, 10 gigabytes of bandwidth, one domain, and 50 email accounts.
- Under Plan 2, you stand to gain 1000 megabytes of disk space, 20 gigabytes of bandwidth, one database, five domains, and 100 email accounts, CGI/PHP, and Fantastico.
- With Plan 3, you will receive 2500 megabytes of disk space, 30 gigabytes of bandwidth, three databases, ten domains, and unlimited email accounts, Shell Access, CGI/PHP, and Fantastico.
- Plan 4, the last on the list, has the most features with 3500 megabytes of disk space, 50 gigabytes of bandwidth, unlimited databases, unlimited domains, and unlimited email accounts, Shell Access, CGI/PHP, and Fantastico awarded to the customer who signed up for it.
Ease of Use
Shared Hosting under Spry allows you to use the Control Panel to manage your email accounts. You can then read any of your emails from any mail client or via the Web at any point of origin. You will also have access to unlimited aliases and unlimited email forwarding functions.
Pricing
The pricing of the Shared Hosting service is as follows:
- You can only sign up for the 12-month option under Plan 1, which will cost you $2.08 per month.
- The rest of the plans have the one-month, three-month, six-month, and twelve-month payment terms.
- Under Plan 2, you will pay $9.99 per month for the one-month, three-month, and six-month payment terms. The twelve-month payment term option is less expensive at $8.32 per month.
- With Plan 3, you will pay $12.99 per month for the one-month, three-month, and six-month payment terms. The twelve-month payment term option is less costly at $10.32 per month.
- The last plan, Plan 4, will cost you $19.99 per month for the one-month, three-month, and six-month payment terms. The twelve-month payment term option is less costly at $16.66 per month.
Support
If you do sign up for Shared Hosting, you can always email the customer service staff of Spry anytime of the day, any day of the week, all year to get the answers to any of your concerns.
Conclusion
The life of any web hosting solutions provider is dependent on the type of hardware and infrastructure it invested. This is the reason why Spry only uses its wholly-owned and privately-maintained facilities to exert maximum control over its service. Considering it has been able to sustain an uptime rate of over 99.9% since 1999, Spry must be doing something right.
Spry may be the grand old man of the industry but there’s still lots of life left in its services anyway. So if you want to take advantage of the Spry experience, then Spry is the web hosting solutions provider for you.
