Forum hosting is different from hosting websites or blogs. Forum scripts will consume relatively high server processing and needs complex mysql database connection.

You might have seen forums with poor functionality or poor response time. You can say it is because of their hosting providers. The most common forum scripts are vbulletin, phpbb & smf. When we consider a common vbulletin forum, it will have more than a 100 php files and will normally use  a lot of mysql connections at the same time. If you are planning to host forums, it is very necessary to check whether your web hosting provider can provide the capacity you require for your forum and you must be sure that your hosting provider can deliver the necessary processing power.

When testing Fatcow server with different forum scripts like vbulletin, smf, phpbb and bbpress, it is found that the set up process along with all other settings goes very easy and quick and the server responded to all the requests smoothly. The website speed is also fast and there were no errors at all.

The easiest way to know more about a hosting provider is to search for relevant discussion site or forum where the customer community of that specific hosting provider will talk about them. You will know what other people are saying about that specific hosting provider. For Fatcow hosting  provider, there are many discussion forum and websites where you can communicate with other customers to know about their service.

When in comes to emails, we always face problems of not able to send unlimited emails due to limits and not able to create unlimited email accounts. In Fatcow, you can create unlimited email accounts and can send upto 2000 emails per day.

Probably you are wondering even if the Fatcow allows sending 2000 emails per day, it is still not unlimited, but when we look at the normal limit of the other hosting companies where you can only send 500 emails per day, 2000 emails is four times better than the rest.

Email sending limit is to avoid spamming and misuse of server resources which is why you can not sent more than 200 emails per hour & 2000 emails per day in Fatcow. Lets take a look at what Fatcow says about the emails.

One more issue which needs to be consider about emails is spam filter & protection. In Fatcow you can enable or disable the spam filter option at your will. If you enable the spam filter option you can set your preference like whitelist, blacklist & greylist.

• Whitelist: Mail from whitelisted entries will always be delivered.
• Blacklist: Mail from blacklisted entries will not be accepted.

As we can see, the Fatcow’s spam filter is very reliable & easy to use.

When it comes to domain names, there are four primary things to consider namely,

Domain Price, Domain Privacy, Domain Name Server (DNS) & Domain Addon Features.

Obviously no hosting company can offer you very cheap domains it is the same for the Fatcow, the .com, .net, .org, .biz & even .info all the domains will cost you $20 per year. The best way to save money on domain is to register domain in godaddy.com and set the domain name server to Fatcow. It will reduce the cost.

The next issue is domain privacy, it helps to keep our personal information including our email address as secret. In case if you registered your domain in Fatcow hosting you can add domain privacy to your domain for just $8.99 per year. Comparing to the other services, the price is reasonable.

The next thing is Domain Nameserver, after registering the domain it is time to point it to Fatcow hosting server. Doing this is very simple all you have to do is go to your domain control panel (not Fatcow control panel) and change the domain name server settings to point Fatcow’s primary & secondary nameservers which will be emailed to you by Fatcow.

The final issue to consider is the domain addon feature. In the past, Fatcow allowed only limited domain names which is too uncomfortable for many of us. But now, Fatcow hosting provides unlimited domain hosting with unlimited storage and bandwidth transfer.

We all know submitting our website to website directory is the best option to get some basic visitor traffic, to get backlinks and to improve SEO for the website. This is made easy with the Fatcow Directory.

The only problem is that it is not free, Fatcow community directory listing is a paid listing service which costs $29.95 per year which is only $2.5 per month. It is a worth spending $2.5 per month to improve SEO, banklinks and to get visitors. Consider other web directories like Yahoo Directory which costs you more than $200 per year, Fatcow directory listing is the best option available.

To addition to this, if you want to start your own web directory service, you can do so using the phpLinkDirectory script. phpLD script requires license, so it is better to get one from their website.

Most of us face the problems of not having enough space for databases or problems like their host not allowing to host more than 5 databases, etc. In the past, Fatcow hosting also allowed only 5 mysql databases which we can find in the mysql management section, but now, Fatcow offers unlimited mysql databases with unlimited storage space and unlimited bandwidth transfer.

Let’s take a look at what Fatcow says about the databases, this will give you a quick glance.

“Existing databases can be managed by locating the database name in the header and using the links to perform actions. Click Administer to launch phpMyAdmin, a tool to handle the administration of MySQL over the Web. Click Password to change the password for a login, or Delete to delete an existing login. Use RevokeGrant to allow the permission. “ 

“To view a database backup, press the View Backups link to view and download backups up to 3 days old. ” ”

“To permanently delete a database, press the Drop Database button.”

I personally prefer to have access to create unlimited mysql databases, which is now possible with the Fatcow’s hosting plans. As you can see above, the Fatcow hosting also offers free back up services for your files and databases and your databases will be stored for 3 days which is more than enough to rest assured.

We all have a website or a blog with us for which we are looking for a hosting plan. I am pretty sure we all want to know how many visitors comes to our website every day or how many total visitors came to our website so far, etc.

Counting the no. of visits to your website is now made easy using the Fatcow site counter service. The Fatcow counter tool helps us to get a code which we will be placing in our website as a website visitor counter tool. The advantage of using this is that we can set the start value of the counter (incase if you want to show others that your website has generated millions of visitors in the past or to brag about your website to your friends) and you can set counter text color and counter background color to fit your website.

Commonly we use free ftp softwares like filezilla to manage uploads and downloads, but when it comes to copy & paste or deleting large directorites or a large numbers of files, obviously filezilla will take more time to complete the process. When we think about that, Fatcow’s File manager made all these process very easy and quick. You can do any thing like archieving files, changing file permissions, copy paste directories and so on with in a very short time. Addition to this, now Fatcow is offering file manager beta, the latest version of vdeck control panel.

When ever our website files size gets bigger there exists a problem of losing data because of various reasons like hardware crash, bugs in the system, etc. To simply put, with out a back up system for all our files and databases, it is more like risking our entire web life.

Ofcourse we can periodically take back ups of all the files but how much do you think your pc can store? and also how often do you think you can back up your files. Technically it is impossible to back up files on your own (it doesn’t matter for smaller websites with few pages or 1 or 2 small databases).

With many features on the hand, Fatcow also offers free back up service to avoid all the problems we might face. Let’s take  a look at their back up service.

“1. Fatcow performs periodic snapshot backups of your Web files.
2. Fatcow back up your database files nightly and keep them for 3 days.
3. Fatcow does not back up mail, except for short-term internal purposes to prevent data loss. Deleted mail messages cannot be retrieved from our servers.“

As you can see, the Fatcow back up service is very reliable, to the top of that, you can also do manual back ups using the Fatcow control panel. For manual back ups all you need to do is go to the file manager and scroll down and use the option ‘archieve as zip’ to save the files to your computer.

Always there lies a problem when you refer your friends or your valuable website visitors to some product or service, which is the actual quality of the product or service. If the quality is not up to the level as you explained, obviously you will get a bad impression because of that. But when you are referring people to Fatcow, you can rest assured that you are introducing them to the most affordable quality webhost.

The next issue is the availability of support. Fatcow provides all the support you need as a Fatcow affiliate from pre made affiliate ads to onine tools to manage commissions, etc. They also provide you with many varieties of pre made banners & textlink ads.

One more issue is the payout per sale, some webhost will pay less compared to the others. In the past Fatcow use to pay $85 per sale to their affiliates, but now just as the other hosting companies like Hostgator, Fatcow is now paying $100 for every sale you make.

Addition to the Fatcow’s affiliate program, they are also providing referral program where you will earn $10 for every customer you refer.

There are two payment options available, one is through check and the other is credits to your hosting plan. Obviously check is the better option here, unless you are planing to cover only your hosting costs with their affiliate program.

I have heard that there exists few problems during payout, but it can be easily solved with their support.
