Business Website Hosting

Hosting is a commodity. Why should I use MadRiverWeb.com?

  • We specialize in hosting and have the software, platforms, tools and experience to create the results you need, and as they impact SEO. We set up your accounts keeping marketing, promotion, and strategy in mind for best results.
  • We can work more quickly on our own platforms, saving you development time.
  • With premium hosting, access to additional features and software tailored to your needs such as databases, custom scripting, password accessibility, SSL, on-line ordering, shopping cart software. (Implementation of additional features and functionality is normally an additional development and/or hosting cost.)
  • Assistance and guidance with domain name registrations or transfer (please, let us do it for you) and DNS.
  • A link from our website for search utility indexing.
  • Personal service during business hours, emergency tech support.
  • We offer domain email with exceptional spam filtering.

Current Options

  • Basic hosting, on a VPS, better performance than shared or cloud hosting.
  • WP Engine performance hosting, on a shared network (multi-site, similar to being on WordPress.com). Cost savings (see “Basic” options below), great performance, vetted plug-ins, site not as easily transferable as if stand-alone, no FTP access. Great for the small business that would have us make improvements and manage functionality.
  • WP Engine performance hosting, stand-alone installation. Premium cost, great performance, full access to plug-ins, SFTP access as needed. Great for the business with WordPress development experience and/or more flexible functionality needs.

  • Basic Discounted, $150 per year: hosting, no domain email (email provided by your ISP)
  • Basic, $180 per year: hosting, domain email aliases

Non-Profit Website Hosting

Mad River Web and Mad River Consulting are committed to supporting the Mad River Valley and Vermont. We will consider providing non-profit organizations that serve the community either free or half-price hosting with a link to our website (setup fee may apply).

Set-up, includes the following as necessary, $40 to $80

  • Retrieval (from current server, if FTP info available, or from CD you provide) and upload of your existing website to server.
  • Email alias or account programming.
  • Registration/transfer of one (.com) domain name at $18.00 (one year added to transferred registrations), with additional domains at $18.00 per year per domain, using our choice of registry. Working with Network Solutions typically costs more. NOTE: Domains ending in other than “.com” (TLD) may cost more from our registry and will be priced accordingly. For example, “.org” and “.net” domains are $20/year.
  • Server traffic logging (stats).

What you don’t get:

  • Unwanted ads on your website.
  • A website control panel or user interface where you have to struggle through your own administration (unless you prefer to).
  • A faceless support or administrative staff with no personal relationship to your account, incorrect and impossible-to-correct issues with your account.
  • Expired domain names, unexpected website disappearance (if we are the administrative contact for your domain).

Limited services (if you need to discontinue your website temporarily or permanently):

  • Domain email account(s) or alias(es), pricing TBD
  • Domain name parking or forwarding

Please see our terms.

WHOIS  Check the availability of a domain name or the details of your registration. A second service is Internic.
