Why Mirage Net Hosting?

It's really very simple — finding a good web host should be as important to you as your website itself.

We all know there are a multitude of hosting choices available to you. For an online business — or anyone else who wants their website taken seriously — free services are usually worth exactly what you pay for them. And it's just bad business to pay more than you need to for half the services you should expect to get.

Consider all of these important factors:

Dependability

Our network is monitored and maintained 24 hours a day by qualified technicians. With a 99.9% uptime guarantee, you can be sure your site has full exposure at all times to web users around the world. Backed by Linux and Apache HTTP servers with up-to-date Perl, PHP, and MySQL support, you're assured the capability of operating the most complex of professional competitive sites on the Internet.

No Advertising

Most cheap and free hosting companies use you for their own advertising needs — pop-up ads when someone arrives at your site, banner ads on your pages, or those pesky watermarks that follow your visitors around. The fact is, you'd be advertising what THEY want. Mirage Net's hosting is free from any outside advertising other than what YOU choose to put there.

Professionalism

Your visitors will know as soon as they see a pop-up or watermark that you didn't see your business as valuable enough to invest in quality hosting. Worse yet, that banner ad placed on your site automatically… may be advertising YOUR COMPETITOR!

🔒

Privacy

Ever noticed the privacy policy on these types of hosting companies' sites? No? That's because they don't have one. In addition to the advertising they place on your site, you may find your inbox filled with their "valuable" offers. Mirage Net's privacy policy is simple: we do not release your email address or any personal information to anyone, for any reason.

Limits

Do you expect your website to grow? Many hosts limit your traffic allowance and the space allocated to your pages. When you outgrow those limits, it's time to search for another host and relocate your site. With Mirage Net's plans, your allotted traffic is substantial — and when you outgrow your space, we can upgrade your account quickly and easily.

🧠

Features

Most hosts charge extra — if they offer them at all — for special features like shopping carts, site submission services, MySQL and PHP database abilities, and even something as common as a cgi-bin with pre-written scripts. You may not know what these are right now, but believe us, you'll eventually need them.

Support — our personal favorite

Free hosting companies offer little if any support, and many others promise technical help via a "customer support form." In our more than 25 years of doing business on the Internet, our experience with those forms is that they may or may not get answered — and who knows when. The Mirage Net team is available to answer your questions and, yes, you get to speak to a real person!

Our success depends on YOUR success.
