Unique
Hosting Options
80% of
all web users find websites using search engines such as google
and yahoo? which is why the success of a web site today mostly
depends on search engines. Many providers charge for search
engine submission however BeamHost includes a tool that will
get you listed in thousands of search engines for absolutely
free! This is something I really liked about BeamHost as it
is pretty unique.

24 hours a day, 7 days a week, BeamHost has a team of highly
skilled and knowledgeable individuals. BeamHost aso has an
outstanding 90 minute response time promise which states that
during working hours, no email will take longer than 90 minutes
to receive a human response. The only other support method
I found was an online contact forum, although I'd be sure
to bet that there are more support options in the customer
area, which I wasn't able to log in to.
