Price Value
FatCow Hosting is a one-plan-fits-all web host, eschewing multiple-tiered hosting plans for a singular plan that aims to fill all user needs. For a $4.83 per month (that works out to $57.96/year), you get 1,500 gigs of disk space per month, 15,000 gigs of data transfer per month, plus a free website builder, e-store builder, blogs, forums, hit counters, surveys and polls, and user-friendly wizards for adding on useful open source applications for making your site even more feature-filled and interactive.
Customers get a 35% discount on domain names with hosting for unlimited domains under one account, as well as unlimited email accounts. Also included with the FatCow Hosting plan are web analytics and site diagnostics tools, FTP access, support for Microsoft FrontPage extensions, ecommerce tools, programming script support (incl. PHP, CGI, MySQL, Python, and more), and online advertising credits and marketing tools like RatePoint Feedback Service and HubSport's Web Site Grader.
And if you're looking for a little more oomph from your web host or web hosting plan, Fat Cow offers numerous add-on services, from website management to email to ecommerce to programming scripting to website marketing, and more.
Reliability
FatCow customers enjoy multi-gigabit connections on a load-balanced platform with data loss protection provided by server backups performed daily. Uninterrupted power is ensured with backup generator system, and the data center facilities and all system hardware and software is monitored 24/7. FatCow Hosting service is backed by a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Control Panel
FatCow provides its own proprietary control panels for its customers to use in managing all their website's needs. This control panel breaks all website creation, management, and administrative duties down into the bare essentials, with all tasks intuitively categorized and listed alongside a color-coded button indicating whether or not each item is currently enabled. Alongside the top of the control panel is a convenient shortcuts menu, and a handy sidebar reveals useful website and web hosting stats (such as disk space, bandwidth, and mailboxes used and available).
Customer Support
FatCow Hosting staffs a 1-888 number for toll-free telephone support, as well as a live web chat support service. There's email help too, for those not-so-urgent queries. The FatCow HelpDesk also features a bevy of self-help options, such as a Knowledgebase, an FAQ library, tutorials, and more.
