Unlimited Traffic:
We are pleased to offer our clients unlimited Web page traffic. To
maintain the integrity of our service, the following restrictions apply:
NOTE: Since there seems to be so many questions about the
statements below. Here is the way we look at this. These
rules are only here for your own good... let's say you have a
great site and you are running a million hits a month and all
is good... what happens when a server hog gets on the server
who is getting 30 million hits a month... inadvertently his site
will keep everyone else's from working... We will contact you
if there is a problem and we will resolve it together.
- Multiple hosts resolving at an IP or domain name that we provide:
This means if you open a account with one website and you pointer sites.
We apply this rule if your pointer sites are high traffic....we would
call you,
email you and ask you what can we do about it. Unlimited Traffic is for
one site not a domain with 5 others pointing at it.
- Sites with banners, graphics or cgi's running from their domain used
on
other domains:
When you employ services such as Link Exchange or a cgi host who lets
1000's of others link to their site, it is important that you require
any sites
you exchange ads with, display your ad on their server. Not only will
not
abiding to this guideline cause your site to load slow, depending on the
resources that you are absorbing you will inadvertently affect our other
clients.
- Sites with archives or galleries (.gif, .jpg, exe, zip, tar, etc.)
Meaning if your site has tons of downloads or pictures. NOTE: You must
be
putting a serious drain on our system before we say anything.
- Sites offering download files:
This is any site where 20% or more of their monthly traffic is from file
downloads.
- Sites using more than 20% of system resources:
WeBBuilders will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation
of
this provision.
Commercial Advertising - Email:
Spamming, or the sending of unsolicited email, from an Site Host server
or using an email address or domain that is maintained on an

this provision. Distribution of mass emailing programs is also
prohibited.

Mailing
lists may not be used to distributed unsolicited email. Any customer
repeatedly "mail bombed" or that attracts such behavior will be asked to
leave. If you are not sure if your actions will be in violation, please
ask
first.

be a
large drain on system resources and we cannot allow it as an account
