Still not sure which package is right for you? Complete this brief questionnaire to receive an automatic recommendation of the website hosting package that will best meet your needs.
1The OCC BEACON website builder is free to use. By default pages created with the web builder have advertising on them. Ads can be removed by adding on the Ad-free site option.
2If you pay for 11 months of the Gold, Silver, or Bronze package (or the ad-free option), you receive the 12th month free!
3The ad-free option is payable semi-annually ($60) or annually ($110). Anyone with a Free site who adds the Ad-free option automatically gets bumped up to the "Plus" package (giving 10 MBs of space and unlimited pages) at no extra charge.
PHP - A programming language which is free and therefore widely used in free scripts. PHP scripts can be used in Gold, Silver, and Bronze accounts, if you know how.
MySQL - Database software which is free and therefore widely used by many free scripts. MySQL database access is granted to Gold, Silver, and Bronze account users.
cgi-bin - A special directory in your account for running scripts. A cgi-bin is included in
Gold, Silver, and Bronze accounts.
