powerMonster hosting plans come packed with features to make your web-hosting experience the best that it can be and to give you the power to edge out your competitors.

Top-Notch Servers

We deploy the best in Intel/AMD quad-core servers and we pack them with a minimum of 4GB of RAM so that your web site(s) are served up FAST. We lease our servers from some of the best providers so that we can upgrade to the latest and greatest in server hardware to provide unsurpassed reliability and lightning-fast speeds.

Latest in Server Software

You can always be sure that we are running the most up-to-date, stable versions of LiteSpeed, PHP5, and MySQL5 so that you are experiencing the best of what these software have to offer. Our system administrators have optimized our server software so that we can serve up your pages at incredible speeds, including Apache and MySQL optimizations and PHP optimized with Zend Optimizer and eAccelerator.

Uncrowded Servers

What’s the point of having great hardware and up-to-date software, if we’re only going to pack accounts into the server like sardines? That’s why we don’t overcrowd our servers! We limit the number of accounts we place on each server so that you can use all the resources you paid for. We then monitor the server to make sure that as accounts grow, we can make the appropriate adjustments to keep the server at optimal performance.

We take Security Seriously

Every account is protected by ConfigServer Security Firewall, Login Failure Daemon, ClamAV, and SpamAssassin MailScanner. Although no system is fool-proof, this powerful combination of security software is the first line of defense against DDoS attacks, viruses, spam, and other security issues.

Nightly, Weekly, and Monthly Offsite Backups

We care about your data! Each night we make nightly, offsite backups of your account. This isn’t a replacement for your own personal backup system, but it’s just one more level of data protection.

Unlimited Account Features

While other hosts may limit the number of domains or email accounts, powerMonster believes that you should have full use of your account, limited only by your disk space and bandwidth. With that, we won’t limit the number of domains, subdomains, parked domains, ftp accounts, email accounts, data bases, or place any other arbitrary limits on your account. Use your account to its full potential. Go ahead. We dare you!

Powerful and Streamlined Control Panel

When we went shopping for a hosting control panel, we searched high and low for the best panel out there and we brought back DirectAdmin. DirectAdmin is a powerful and streamlined full-featured control panel that makes the tasks of administrating your web site a cinch!

DirectAdmin is…

• Easy. —DirectAdmin is the easiest to use control panel, period.
• Fast. —DirectAdmin is programmed to be the fastest running control panel available.
• Stable. —DirectAdmin avoids downtime by automatically recovering from crashes.

Wanna give DirectAdmin a try? Check out the live demo.

If you current provider is using cPanel or another hosting control panel, we can move your sites to DirectAdmin free. Once you’ve switched, you’ll wonder what you saw in those other panels!

Just one more reason why at powerMonster, it’s different here.

Installatron Script Installer

Installatron kicks Fantastico’s butt. Installatron is simply the BEST script installer out there, period. Don’t believe us, just look at the features.

• Installatron installs some of the best scripts out there including WordPress, Joomla, Magento,phpBB, and many more. Here’s the current full listing: Installatron Scripts.
• Installatron keeps its applications up-to-date. As new stable releases of each application become available, Installatron updates its installer for fast and efficient upgrades. Fantastico has been known to take weeks or even longer to update its scripts.
• Installatron allows the user more control of the installations. With Fantastico, you have very limited control of how the script is installed. With Installatron, you have maximum control. You can choose where you want it to be installed, what data base to use or have it create one for you, what database tables to use, etc. This allows for a more custom install and increases security as default settings can’t be predicted.
• Installatron lets you backup and restore your applications at any time.
• And best of all, Installatron imports your previously installed scripts from other popular script installers including Fantastico. That’s right. If you’ve already installed via another script installer or manually a script in Installatron’s library, you can import it into Installatron so that any future maintenance can be performed via Installatron’s interface.
• And these features are just the tip of the iceberg!
