Shared Hosting
We gladly accept...
Go geek with confidence...
Ten reasons to go Geek...
1). Unbelievable Prices.
We buy in bulk -- so you don't have to! We've been providing affordable web hosting for years now and have built our business around a low-cost pricing model that still allows you have a very generous allotment of space and bandwidth and all the features you want and need!
2). Amazing Network,
Uptime Guaranteed.
We know what it takes to have an amazingly fast network that's backed up by the best hardware. Afterall, technology changes and you have to stay on the leading edge to be able to offer the best, right? Does your current host?
3). No Hidden Fees,
Just Awesome Hosting.
We don't scheme behind your back and hit you with a bunch of hidden fees on signup or overages. All of our prices are clearly represented on our website and we like to keep it that way! The only thing we ask is, that you please review our Terms of Service before signing up. Between our signup pages and our Terms of Service, all of our fees are represented on those pages.
4). A Great Community.
We believe in open interaction with our clients - and we encourage our clients to interact with each other on our message boards. When you join GeekStorage your not just signing up for web hosting, your joining an eager community that is ready to assist you and chat with you.
5). You Can Grow With Us.
We understand that small websites can sprout, rather quickly, into very large ones and just the opposite can happen! Rest assured that we have a plan that will fit your need and your budget! There is absolutely no fee, "hidden" or otherwise, to upgrade or downgrade your hosting plan with us.
6). 3 VERY REAL Guarantees.
We don't just talk the talk, we back up everything we say with industry-leading guarantees. With a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee, a 99.9% Server Uptime Guarantee and a 60 day Money Back Guarantee, what's there to lose? Does your current web host put their words into actions and guarantee you their quality of service? We do!
7). 24/7 Geek Support.
We have clients from all over the world and we are here for you around the clock, no matter what time it is. If you need help there will be a geek here to assist you, at any time of the day or night!
8). More Features Than
You Could Dream Of.
Space and bandwidth allotments are only a part of what makes our packages great. Our industry-smashing UNLIMITED additional features on most every account is where the true VALUE of our plans come into play. With the ability to have as many subdomains, e-mail addresses, parked domains, databases and more you can be assured that you are definitely going to get your money's worth here at GeekStorage.
9). We've Hosted Thousands,
Solid Reputation.
Don't be afraid! You can be sure that we aren't serving your website off some 75 MHz PC out of our garage! We've been providing our affordable web hosting for over six years and have thousands of clients under our services umbrella. We know how to treat you right and we'll always be striving to improve the quality of our service offering to you!
10). Fort Knox Security.
Our brilliant geek administrators constantly monitor the status of our network and servers, always on the look out for a new script vulnerability. We have our servers locked down so you don't have to worry about it!
Compare Our Shared Plans
All of our shared plans are packed full of features and we are confident you'll find a plan below that will fit your needs and exceed your expectations.
