Features & Benefits
When comparing website hosting services be sure you know what you are really getting. No, we’re not free. We offer quality, professional products and services at affordable prices. There are no hidden fees, no contracts, and no gotchas or costly surprise upgrades required. Our websites are installed for you with basic configuration already done.
We are seriously committed to helping you build your online business successfully — so serious, in fact, that we will feature your site on our home page and provide basic SEO and social media promotion at no additional charge!
• Here’s what we offer in our all our standard packages:
Ready-made website includes a one-of-a-kind theme (design) created just for you. We’ll work with you to incorporate your current identity, logo, and brand. You can select colors, menu styles, page layouts, and provide banner and background graphics or we can help you choose. Depending on the complexity and communication speed we can often have a site up and ready to move in within 24 hours or less.
Or choose from tens of thousands of available free and commercial theme designs. Note that some third-party themes are not suitable for use on MSMOsites, some need minor (or substantial) modification in order to work, and some (though not many) will require an extra installation fee. If you already have, or intend to use, a third party theme please ask us first. We will gladly provide a free evaluation. Most may be installed without additional charge.
Integrated WordPress blogging, an easy way to provide regular new content to your site, is included in all standard packages. Though you are not required to blog, and the feature may be enabled or disabled at will, blogging can be a powerful search engine optimization (SEO) tool. You really should consider its use.
On site image hosting with easy uploading and picture resizing. There is no need to use an external hosting service but we also support external pictures. Either? Both? You choose. You can even host your own pictures for use in listings on other selling venues. One place does it all.
PayPal Buy Now and Add To Cart, and Google Checkout buttons may be added to any blog post or web page, even on sites without the shopping cart option. Promote and sell your products and services through your business blogging site. There are no listing fees or final sales commissions.
Support for your own HTML in all posts/pages/listings or use the basic built in HTML/WYSIWYG editor to easily create your special website content. You can run your site without ever knowing your first HTML tag, but if you do use HTML you can use it here too.
Quality, professional, tech support by real people who know and understand both websites and business. You will receive intelligent, responsive, answers to your questions. Unlimited email and available telephone support. No meaningless auto-responder messages. Just answers from real people who actually care about your success.
Software updates, including plugins, are managed automatically. No need to worry about versions, release numbers, or compatibility. We’ll even help you choose available plugins to add desired features to your website. We are committed to helping you make your website work for your business.
A sub-folder URL, in the form: http://msmosites.com/yoursite/ is included at no additional charge. This is suitable for most small businesses though it cannot be taken with you should you move to another site. We do also support use of your own domain name which is yours to transfer at any time. See below.
Full support for using your own domain name if you already have one. Your domain will be correctly mapped to your website at no additional charge. If you don’t have a domain name, but would like one, we can help you choose and obtain one for a small fee. Full domain names are transferable should you ever leave MSMOsites.
Complete internal favicon support. It’s a small thing (really!) but it does allow you to have your own identity extend to the browser address bar and tabs. We’ll even design a suitable favicon for you if you don’t already have one.
Automatic blog comment spam filtering. We can’t stop all spam but our professional grade filter protects you from most of it and it learns as you mark received comments as spam. Like most other things on the site it is easy to use and we provide full tech support.
There is no contract period nor do you need to pre-pay for six months or a year. You receive our affordable rates on a monthly payment basis managed easily through the PayPal subscription program. You can cancel from within your own PayPal account at any time. We do not have access to you your account.
We’ll submit your website to the top three search engines for you: Google, Yahoo, and Bing. Over 98% of all searches are done with these three top players. Most small search engines pick up their results from these services so you will actually be found in most legitimate search engines.
• Our web store package offers all of the above and:
Available shopping cart that directly interfaces with, and utilizes, the familiar features of your website. You may offer as few, or as many, items for sale as you like. There are no listing fees and no final sales commissions. Your basic package cost is all inclusive. Place as many pictures in each listing as you wish. Add categories. Manage inventory.
Shopping cart supports PayPal, Google Checkout, Authorize.Net, and other payment gateways. It even exports a file for upload to Google Base. This is a full-feature shopping cart.
Shopping cart supports digital delivery items (files, e-books, etc.) as well as regular products. Sell only digital items, real goods, or mix them both in the same cart. Automatic downloads for digital items supported.
• Our custom website packages offers your choice of any of the above and:
Complete unique custom designed themes featuring your choice of design, layout, pages, graphics, and other features. We work closely with you to produce the design of your choice until we get it right. Themes are separate from the site function so, if necessary, we can get you online before your theme is completed. No long waits.
• Additionally we offer:
We offer assistance for both registering and managing a new domain name if you need it. There is a small annual fee for this service. The domain name is registered through a nationally known domain registrar for management and security purposes but it is yours to take with you at any time should you leave MSMOsites. We guarantee it.
Standard support and SEO enhancements are included with every package. Full search engine optimization (SEO) support, including special reports and additional program offerings through our associated business, Our Hutch Web Services is also available at an affordable rate.
An on-going advertising program, including selected social media marketing (SMM) options, promotes your business website through many powerful channels exposing your products and services to a wide demographic base is also available at extra cost.
• What The Wiz Has To Say:
Not only do I believe MSMOsites is the right choice for you and your business, my own personal site Wizard’s Place is provided through MSMOsites and I use the same structure for many of my other business websites. Try MSMOsites. I know you will like it. In fact, I guarantee it! If you try MSMOsites for six months and don’t find it suitable to your needs I’ll personally back up your image files and content information to a CD and mail it to you at no cost so you can set up easily somewhere else. You won’t find the other guys doing that… but then we’re sure you’ll stay!
