Frequently asked questions
How do I install these scripts that are mentioned on the front page?
|
In your control panel, click on the fantastico icon. It's a blue smiley face near the bottom of the cpanel page. From there you just select the script you want on the left and click on "New Install" when the description comes up on the page. Then just name the folder the script should be installed in, and click on "Finish Installation". It's really just that easy!

How long does it take for my DNS changes to update world wide?
Normally you can expect to see your web site DNS to change within 24 hours once you have made the modifications at your registrar. However, we have seen it take up to 7 days in some cases where registrars and ISPs are a little slower.
Why isn't my SSI working?
In order for SSI to be executed, you must rename all of your web pages to .shtml rather than .htm or .html. This solves the majority of SSI errors.
Do you have a spam blocker for our POP3 or IMAP email accounts?
Yes, you can use Spambox™, a simple but effective human verification system. It's not perfect, but a spammer would have to be pretty desperate to try getting around it. We find that in most cases, they don't bother. It's use is of course optional, and configurable.
How will I know if I'm almost out of available disk space?
You can monitor your disk usage and many other statistics from your control panel. Our server will also send you an automated email notifying you that it might be time for an upgrade. Or send us a customer and we'll upgrade you for free when they sign up.
Will you make my website for me?
We do offer a template customization service, which can be found HERE. You provide the content and we'll take care of the rest. We have many professional looking templates to choose from. We also do custom graphics, so if your company needs a logo, feel free to Contact us.
Do you provide Domain names too?
We do, and if you email us we'll gladly get your domain name for you, but we've found that in many cases, it best to let you maintain control over your own domain name. That way, if you want to switch your hosting plan to another provider, it is much easier to do so. Treohost highly recommends GoDaddy.com as very easy and affordable domain management solution.
