"
I would like to commend ICUK on your support. They have always answer promptly and with an
answer to the actual question! Our previous hosts were terrible at support - we didn't get any!
I have now swapped all my hosting to ICUK and will continue to use them for the future.

|
|

platform which includes Windows & Email hosting and xDSL broadband facilities for resale.

| |
|
|
2. Unlimited Hosting Accounts
The monthly subscription charge covers you for the costs associated with setting up as many hosting accounts as you like. Additional charges apply to optional extras such as spam filtering, .net and any wholesale broadband subscriptions you setup. As a reseller you can set the prices for the services you sell, we don't dictate what these should be.
THIS IS NOT DESIGNED FOR RESELLERS WANTING REFERRAL COMMISSIONS. WE DO NOT BILL OR SUPPORT YOUR CLIENTS DIRECTLY.
|
| |
|
|
3. Invoices & Support
It is your responsibility to bill your customers and provide first level support. Our control panel
has been designed to provide you with the tools and diagnostics that you will need. ICUK is available to you on the
phone and via email for further assistance with faults and for advice.

Windows Scheduled Tasks
Once installed on an account, it is possible to schedule the
execution of upt 10 scripts within an account's webspace at various points throughout the day, month
or year. Common website tasks that benefit from time scheduled execution include the
expiration of data, sending of emails on specific dates, billing purposes, clearing out
log files or caches and generating reports. We provide the facility to receive email reports each time a scheduled task is completed for peace of mind. |
| |
|
|
Graphical Website Statistics
View both real-time and historical information about the visitors to your web site. You can both
view detailed Webalizer graphical statistics through our control panel. These are provided as a free option on all accounts. |
| |
|
|
Stats Only Control Panel
Should you prefer not to provide customers with a control panel,
but would still like to grant them access their website statistics, a separate
"stats.yourdomain.co.uk" interface can be provided to your clients
at no additional charge. |
| |
|
|
Raw Log Files

customers who require to know more about their visitors than provided in the graphics statistics section. There are
no extra costs associated with our raw log files. |

Additional FTP Logins
When you create a hosting account the username and password picked can allow you instant
access to the account via FTP. Our control panel allows you to setup additional FTP Logins on a per
account basis, allowing customers and web site users to access and upload files directly by FTP within a web site
itself. Our control panel allows you to specify an 'FTP Login' quota as well as
the read or read-write permission on each login. |
| |
|
Custom MIME Types
Many MIME types are preset on our Windows web servers, however should a specific file type or web application
not appear on your site or function correctly, such as a Flash Video, you can define your own custom MIME types on the web site. |
| |
|
|
Windows Custom Error Pages
When a request is made for a file on your site that is no longer available visitors will be displayed
with a standard uninformative page. The customer error pages allow you to present something more informative
and in the style of your website allowing you to increase the chances of retention to your site. This
applies to Windows error codes 403, 404 and 500. |

including images and databases via the control panel. Simply click on the backup button for a website and a
zipped download is presented for easy storage on your machine. All our servers are backed up off-site every 24
hours as standard. |

minimise risk to them, and maximise your sales. Shared SSL is provided on an anonymous
domain of https://www.securedweb.co.uk/username/.
Alternatively opt for a professional SSL certificate of your own based on your domain name.
A static IP address with its own secure server is configured for your
site and a 128bit SSL certificate registered for your organisation and
installed upon it. Your customers see your organisation's details as
the verified site owner when viewing the SSL properties in their

higher-cost, more complex database technology. Its award-winning speed, scalability and reliability make
it the right choice for corporate IT departments, Web developers and packaged software vendors.

annual charge. The Enterprise or Linux reseller platforms allows you to create upto 10 per hosting plan
with no additional charge.

Here is an overview of some of the standard features on our platform. |
| |
 |
Unlimited Disk Space
There is no restriction on the amount of disk space your accounts may use. You can, however, set
quotas on your own clients through the control panel and monitor their usage accordingly.
|
| |
 |
10,000MB Data Transfer Per Month
10,000MB (10GB) of data transfer is available on our Reseller account that can be used for your own account
and for your clients. This should be plenty for hundreds of small websites. You can set and monitor the quota
of each customer through your control panel for effective resource management.
If you need more bandwidth we recommend you look at the Enterprise
reseller with a massive 250GB per month of data transfer. We have resisted offering "unlimited" bandwidth on the
shared hosting platform for the simple this can often lead to loosely worded fair usage policies being applied, or at worst
uneconomical hosting which can impact on the service you receive from us.

| |
|
|
Real-time Service Status
We believe in honesty should any issues affect our service. We allow our resellers to view
the current status of all our services in real-time. This is available in your control panel, and those

text messages to you to ensure you have access to the latest information at your finger tips.
