When it comes to web design there are three things which we need to consider. The first one is the template, with out a template there is no design. The second thing is marketing, the design we use should be able to be used for marketing purposes and the third one is the ability to use other softwares besides your web host’s default website builder. These are the three basic things which we need to consider when we talk about web design.
First lets see what we have for templates in Fatcow. If you had already ordered fatcow hosting and currently so confused about selecting a template continue reading.

Fatcow’s control panel Vdeck comes with many special features like site counter tool, filemanager beta, search engine submit tool, .hta override, Microsoft frontpage 2003 & Fatcow’s front page extension and so on.
In this post lets see about the Fatcow’s vdeck special features website counter tool, search engine submit tool and .hta override.
Obviously almost all of us wants to keep track of how many visitors comes to your website or blog every day or how many total visitors have came so far, etc. It is now possible with the Fatcow’s site counter tool. Not just counting the visitors you can even set the start count of the visitor (in case if you want to brag to your friends or something) for your convenient.
Obviously the best way to obtain free traffic to our website is through search engine submission, with so many search engines out there and if we have so many websites then manual search engine submission is close to impossible. To avoid manual search engine submission, Fatcow offers automatic search engine submission tool which comes along with your hosting plan, with which your work load is reduced a lot.
At present, .htaccess override is very common along with so many PHP scripts to add features like permalink, URL redirecting, etc. We can also password protect our files using .htaccess. For instance you can add permalink to your wordpress blog which can also implement tag cloud plugin. And doing this is even easier, all we have to do is to upload .htaccess file to the server, thats all.

Uptime is opposite to downtime, uptime is the measure of the time the servers were operational. Normally the uptime quality is measured using 5 nines, 99.999. Having 100% uptime all the time is practically impossible and also 99.999% is as impossible as the 100%. We can say a good uptime is about 99%. If the server’s uptime gets lower than 90% then we can say it is the poor service ever. The uptime is calculated every 5 or 15 minutes and in Fatcow the uptime is calculated every 5 minutes to give accurate results.
I researched internet for the information about Fatcow web hosting uptime and I was surprised, Fatcow hosting provides over 99% uptime all the time, to be accurate, they provide more than 99.9% uptime every month.
Last month their average uptime was 99.93% and before that it was 99.8% and as we calculate, the average uptime was found out to be 99.9%. As far as I know, Fatcow provides one of the best uptime of all the web hosting providers.
Many times in the past, I had issues about uptime with my hosting providers (I don’t want to mention the name) and I had used many hosting providers in the past and I can say Fatcow hosting providers provides the best uptime of all and most of the days, Fatcow provides 100% uptime.
As we can see above, if we are talking about uptime, there is no one better than Fatcow hosting providers.

No matter what we do in internet, we always need support from respective parties. Support has been a huge problem all the time, before going with any hosting, we should always make sure they provide quality support which actually solves all your problems.
In the past, not all hosting companies provided online chat along with phone support and email support, but as we can see now almost all the top web hosting providers provides online chat support, phone support and email support. But the question is, do they actually provide quality support? If the people who support you through online chat or phone doesn’t possess enough knowledge about the field where you need help, there is no use contacting them, they will only waste more of your time by asking some one else and so on, even a simple problem will take very long time to get solve.
I have experienced many problems with my past hosting providers during support. I was once stuck with the problem of moving large data from one domain to another because it takes more time, so I went for online chat support to find an answer, the answer I get was to download the files and then upload it to the new directory because their server has only 4mb RAM. Obviously it is the worst support ever, then I figured it out myself.
The point is before you go for any hosting company, search the internet for reviews and communities to find out about their support quality.

Website loading speed is a major problem for many website and blog users. Consider you have a dynamic website with 100kb index page, how much time do you thing it should take to load? Obviously if it takes more than a second then you are not having a better hosting provider.
Web pages loading speed won’t be a big problem for small websites and websites with only 1 or 2 pages, but when we think about having a forum or a huge website or a blog were more and more people visit every day and the web page receives a lot of comments which increases the page size, obviously it will take some time to load the page, but if it takes too much time compared to other similar websites then you will losing your precious visitors.
I have seen many huge forums which can load very quickly and some forums takes too much time to load and some times some forum gets overloaded and resists new visitor from accessing the site for a specific amount of time. Obviously this is a disadvantage to our website.
In Fatcow, the web page loading speed is reasonably high. You can see a page of more than 100kb size which is hosted in Fatcow loads in less than a second. At present after few upgrades in Fatcow, the web page loading speed even higher than before. If you are already a customer in Fatcow hosting, you probably know what I am saying here.

Almost all of us will need a PHP script to our website no matter how simple our website are, even if we don’t need a PHP script now, definitely we will need atleast a contact form PHP script or a feedback form PHP script for our website when it starts to develop, hence it is very necessary to make sure our web hosting provider allows all kinds of PHP scripts and all PHP scripts should be able to install and run very easily. If a web hosting provider doesn’t allow some specific PHP script which needs lot of processor load or uses a lot of server resources, still it is not a best hosting provider.

When talking about Green web hosting, you may ask what is Green web hosting? Why should I use Green web hosting? What Green web hosting can do to improve my website? The answer to all your questions are right here.
Green web hosting means fully eco friendly web hosting. Generally data centres energy consumption and the generators will increase the carbon’s contents in the atmosphere and may affect web hosting uptime and hosting service quality. With eco friendly Green web hosting, all these problems can be avoided. This answers your second question as well, obviously using Green web hosting will reduce the possibility of potential file lose due to hardware crash, power shutdown, etc. Because of this your website’s functionality will be good and there will be no poor performance for your website which gives your website a good impression to the visitors.
Addition to that, Fatcow announced that the energy used for their data centers and servers and obtained from 100% wind energy which is huge contribution to the environment. With 100% wind energy to avoid the carbon release is a great thing and I personally encourage every one to use Green web hosting.
Now there are few more Green web hosting providers are present. Considering the low price and other features, I recommend to choose Fatcow Green web hosting over the other hosting providers.

Both normal FTP connection & secure FTP connection are available at Fatcow. You can upload and download files easily in Fatcow and also it is very easy to manage your files with the help of Fatcow filemanager beta. Fatcow filemanager beta is a new advance tool availlable through Fatcow vdeck control panel.
Most people usually use filezilla and other free ftp manager to upload and download files, but when it comes to operations like copy & paste, deleting huge list of files or deleting a directory with large number of files or deleting an entire website, the ftp managers will take quite large amount of time to complete the process, but with the help of Fatcow’s filemanager beta all these processes can be done in relatively short amount of time. Also you can archieve files and can change file’s permissions for security purposes at will through the filemanager beta.
A notable thing about Fatcow is that not all web hosting providers supports both normal FTP connection and secure FTP connection. Many hosting providers only support normal FTP connections, which makes Fatcow even more reliable. Also it is necessary for your ftp client to support secure FTP connection to use Fatcow’s secure FTP connection. If you are not sure about this, I recommend using filezilla ftp client software. You can learn more about filezilla from their website itself. If you are using any other ftp client software make sure it supports secure FTP connection.
