Sample Site
Our sample site to test Globat is http://www.bollywoodblitz.com , this is an extremely high traffic site that makes use of php and mysql databases. We are very happy with Globat's professional and reliable service. We have detailed our experiences with Globat regarding this site in this Globat's review.

About the Company

Globat was founded in 2001 by Ben R. Neumann, the founder of Internet Communications (www.icom.com). Together with COO Christopher L. Ueland, Globat has sought to provide innovative, reliable, and affordable web site hosting. With a customer focused approach to business, this company has proven to be a successful force to be reckoned with in the web hosting world.

Plans

Globat offers three separate TERAbyte hosting packages: the T01, T02, and the TO3. Pricing for these plans starts at $4.95 per month, $9.95 per month, and $14.95 per month, respectively. All starting prices assume at least a full year of hosting to be prepaid, otherwise the monthly cost is higher.

The T01 provides 10GB of disk space, 300 MB of data transfer per month, 5000 POP3 email accounts, and MySQL database support. Additionally, Real Media Streaming, Flash, SSL, and FrontPage Extensions are also supported along with your own CGI-BIN.

Moving on, the TO2 comes equipped with 15GB of disk space, 7500 POP3 email accounts, and 350 GBof data transfer per month. The same additional features seen in the Gigabyte Package are included as well as being e-commerce ready with ShopSite shopping cart software and shared SSL for secure transactions. This version of ShopSite provides support for up to 40 products and a 5 page limit to your online catalog.

Still not big enough? Globat offers their TO3 which comes with 20GB of disk space, 10,000 POP3 email accounts, 400 GB of data transfer per month, and all of the above features. Additionally, it comes with the ShopSiteStarter Ultra 100 E-Commerce Store System. This software package provides support for up to 100 products and a 10 page limit to your online catalog.

All packages have some setup fees. All packages also include the shared SSL access to enable secure connections for any application your web site may have.

New to web site design? That’s not a problem. Globat offers easy to use web site creation tools. Their GloBuild website builder and large selection of templates provides even the most rookie webmaster with a full source of professional and clean web site designs.

Finally, all packages come with a promotional kit to register your website among the top search engines, as well as a $50.00 credit to Overture.com for advertising.

So how well does this hosting work in conjunction with the promotional package? As a test site, our own http://www.bollywoodblitz.com was put to the test. We now receive over 3,000 people per day with 15,000 individual pageviews per day. That is approximately 90,000 people per month! Imagine that happening to your website and you should be very excited.

Reliability

Globat boasts their B 2 technology as one of the most innovative hosting platforms available. Featuring the redundancy and backup usually only found in commercial data centers, this technology distributes functions of your website across multiple servers. This allows every application of your web site to perform at its optimal level and provide your online customers with a complete, seamless, and efficient web experience with a minimum likelihood of failure.

With foundry switches, network appliance Raid 4 filers, and automated backup machines, your web site is certain to be online and running smoothly. Additionally, Nortel Networks Alteon Load balancers are employed on the network in order to correctly direct incoming traffic to provide the best available delivery of your information.

Two separate data centers are used on different backbones of the Internet for additional protection and performance. The primary center, located in downtown Los Angeles, California, is the same one used by Google, Yahoo, and IBM; and we all know how well those sites run. The second data center is located in Marina del Rey, California and is used exclusively for secondary DNS and email server backup. The aforementioned data center connects via Verio and Mzima Networks, amonth other Tier-1 providers while the latter uses AT&T and Time/Warner for connectivity.

In the case of http://www.bollywoodblitz.com, Globat delivered once again. Even during the times of highest Internet traffic to our site, performance did not even falter in the slightest. Top performance and page loads were steady and consistent no matter when we hit the site.

Support

Globat is consistently striving to provide 100% customer satisfaction with, not only their product, but their customer service. With a variety of support options, they are sure to meet your needs.

Finally, Globat offers a section of their support center devoted to answering your questions before you sign up with their service.

Finally, if you are not satisfied with Globat’s hosting or customer service, they provide a 30-day money back guarantee on all of their hosting packages. How can you go wrong with that?
