In brief:

Standard Feature Hosting

LinkSky's Standard Feature hosting accounts are NOT teaser accounts. Each is feature packed with an ample amount of server space for hundreds of web pages. And you can create as many email address as you need based on YOUR domain name for better security, and more sophistication and functionality (rather than having to use Gmail, Yahoo, AOL, etc.).

Standard feature hosting comes with enough server space for hundreds of content rich web pages and other web data.

Also included with Extended Feature Hosting:

  • Premium 24/7 support (ongoing).
  • Professional POP/SMTP or IMAP email accounts with excellent anti-spam services.
  • Complex email forwarding with programmable autoresponders.
  • Crontab utility (the ability to set your own scheduling tasks.)
  • PCI compliant for secure, pro-level e-commerce.

(See the account comparison table below for more account feature details.)


LinkSky Hosting Plans are Consumer Friendly


Never an unexpected fee:


Unlike nearly all other web commercial web hosting plans, LinkSky hosting plans never come with bandwidth charges, or unexpected (or difficult to predict) fees of any kind. When you sign up for any of our plans, you KNOW precisely what your monthly fees will be well in advance of scheduled payments.


Register your domain at our Domain Center, or ANYWHERE:


If you are happy with your current domain registration service then you can certainly keep using them. Unlike nearly all other web hosts, LinkSky does not require that you register or transfer your domain to our domain center just to host with LinkSky. LinkSky's Domain Center offers excellent prices and service, but if you don't want to transfer, simply change your domain's name server addresses (at your current domain registrar) and it will be just as active for your LinkSky account as if you had transferred your domain to us.


No traffic throttling:


In addition, LinkSky will never throttle traffic to your web site. This is a very common practice among other web hosts. LinkSky management has a long held opinion that account traffic throttling is a highly unethical practice which essentially punishes more successful web site owners for having a successful online enterprise, all in the name of preserving bandwidth for other accounts in their "cloud" or on the same server


More about bandwidth:

Simply stated, it is a fact that some accounts use very little resources, while others may from time to time use larger amounts of resources. No two enterprises are alike in this regard. Rather than setting forth stringent limits that attempt to squeeze all accounts into some predefined normal, common or "fair" usage as defined solely at the discretion of the host, our goal as a hosting service provider is to accommodate every LinkSky hosted member according to their operational needs. This task is made easy by our unique system design and methodology.

As our company name would suggest, we maintain several interconnected service platforms. Response time of each of our service systems is closely monitored. Overall, usage is evenly distributed throughout the array of LinkSky service systems by allocating more processing power to the hosted accounts that need it the most. With few exceptions, the largest sites we host are just as fast and responsive as the smallest.

Our success story over the years in maintaining high efficiency with industry leading up-time statistics, is the result of a unique combination of technology and extraordinarily talented LinkSky technical staff. All efforts are directed toward exceeding the industry norm for efficiency and high availability at all times, for all LinkSky services.


NOT JUST a full money-back 60-day satisfaction guarantee:

Simply stated, if you're not happy with your LinkSky hosting account, then neither are we. If given the chance, we will work earnestly to remove any barrier you may have to hosting with LinkSky. There are no long-term contracts for any LinkSky hosting service. Should you close your hosting account for any reason, the unused portion of any prepaid fee is refundable.


Support when you need it:

LinkSky staff is available to answer your questions and address your needs 24/7/365. We maintain an extremely positive track record of quick, friendly, knowledgeable responses from individuals who have the direct skills and experience to handle nearly any situation on a moment's notice.

Please check our Support Department Page for a full description of the various avenues of support we offer.

LinkSky staff members fully understand that web hosting is truly a "service" industry.
LinkSky Support is staffed by web hosting professionals who sincerely care about the success of LinkSky hosted members and who know how to communicate in layperson (non-techie) terms.

What may appear to be a complicated issue may have a very simple cause, and sometimes an equally simple resolution. For example, a quick review of the server logs can bring a problem to light and save hours or even days of frustration for the LinkSky hosted members who may be attempting to host an unusually sophisticated web site, or just having a problem with their email program. This is why we are glad when a hosted member contacts LinkSky support. It gives us an opportunity to demonstrate our commitment to their success in hosting with LinkSky.

When hosting with LinkSky it is very easy to see that our philosophy is, "If you're not successful, then neither are we." This is why we are always happy to assist in whatever way we can as your web hosting provider of choice.
