NZHost.Com was founded with the belief that a fast, reliable Internet hosting service combined with a full list of features and enough storage space to do the job shouldn't have to cost an arm and a leg like it usually does in New Zealand.
Furthermore, it is a fundamental philosophy of us at NZHost.Com that you should never have to pay traffic charges for anyone who accesses your site, when you can have no idea how much that is going to be. We would never deal with anyone who does this, and we don't believe that anyone else such as yourself should have to either. Apart from penalising you if you have a successful site, we question the ethics of this practise which is just giving someone an open cheque, that could well land you with an unexpected bill of hundreds or even thousands of dollars a month, and you possibly having to remove your site from the Internet entirely to stop these costs. Please note that one of the reasons we can offer our services so inexpensively, and give you much more independance than normally is the case, is that we are a specialist web hosting organisation. We are not an "ISP" or Internet Service Providor - the organisation you use to connect to the Internet, such as Xtra, Voyager, Ihug etc. If you wish to have access to the Internet yourself for email and your own travels on the Internet ("surfing"), you still need an account with a local ISP to give you your own connection. We are not, and never will be, an ISP. The huge cost structure involved in providing local and national access for thousands of clients would mean that we would have to charge the same sort of costs as they do - up to five times or more as much as we charge. We are far better off doing what we do - providing a hosting service to host your site and get your message out to the world, at an incredibly cheap cost, whilst giving you total independance from your ISP. If your ISP is not performing, or you have found one that is much cheaper, then you are able to change very quickly and very easily, without losing anything. If your ISP also hosts your site, then it is much more difficult for you to change, even if you have your own domain name, and virtually impossible of you don't (see our section on Domain Names). The servers we use are located in continental U.S.A, optimised for speed and dedicated to hosting web sites, and feature multiple DS-3 & T1 connections to major Internet backbones.<.
