Welcome to dhammaHost

We offer a LINUX hosting service that is so unique, you won’t want to pass us by!

In a nutshell, this is what we are offering:

* Disk space and/or bandwidth can be negotiated,
   if you require more of either or both.

So what is so unique about all this?

First and foremost, we care! Our integrity and honesty are important to us. We demonstrate our integrity by being responsible stewards of your trust and providing you with the best service that we possibly can.

Secondly, perhaps you missed the price : $40.00 per year!

But 500 megabytes doesn't seem like very much!

Compared to more expensive hosting plans, no, it is not very much. But to be realistic, your purchase of what seems to be the industry standard start-up configuration of 10 gigabytes is absolutely HUGE! As you can appreciate, it is difficult to obtain a realistic average size of an average web site (what’s “average”), so a fair, comparative estimate is difficult to resolve - only you know what your disk space requirements are or will be.

As a simple example, a WordPress website with 6 pages, 10 image galleries each containing an average of about 12 images only consumes about 54 megabytes. Plenty of growing room there! Another web site with probably more than 50 files (mostly PHP and HTML) and about 30 images or so, consumes only 25 megabytes.

Here’s a very rough guide to go by:

The average web page with 3 small images and 2 screens worth of text takes about 20Kb. With these types of pages, our hosting plan will afford you (500Mb = 512,000Kb, therefore 512,000Kb / 20Kb equals) a whopping 25,600 pages.

We know… It seems like we must have made a calculation error… BUT WE DIDN’T!

Do you really need more than 500 megabytes? Like we said earlier - only you know that answer, but the majority of our potential customers won't! We leave it to you... perhaps the average hosting account consumer has been misled all this time into buying more than they realistically need…

Okay - There’s got to be a catch!

The catch is this…

At the moment, we will only be hosting 15 accounts. If you want to purchase 1 account, 3 accounts or whatever number of available accounts exist, that doesn’t matter, but once all 15 allocations have been acquired, the door to this fabulous offer gently shuts.

Part of the reason why we can afford to offer you this exciting new price structure is that, although support exists, it is minimal. The cPanel Administration interface is very simple to use and will meet 99.9% of your administration needs. We suggest that if you believe you are going to require extensive and / or constant “hand holding” to administer your web site, either hire a knowledgeable site administrator (you can afford it now!), or find another internet host that may better suit your requirements.

There are a few other implied restrictions which are summarized here.

So… If there is no catch, what are you getting out of this?

Just the simple satisfaction that we were able to offer good hosting at a truly fair price. The internet can be such a rich and wonderful resource, this is our attempt at getting it as close to FREE as possible.
