Free Solid-State DrivesInMotion Shared Hosting includes free Solid-State Drives (SSD) that offer higher performance than standard spinning hard disk drives.

GoDaddy does not offer Shared SSD Hosting. |

Rock Solid Defense
We take security very seriously. This is why you see our network, and your site, stay online when so many competitors go down. We utilize internal scripts and APIs to change the network routing dynamically. We’ve partnered with Corero, so you’re protected from DDOS attacks. And custom firewalls, suPHP, CageFS, and a shared SSL certificate add layer upon layer of safety and security to your account and sites.
I had the pleasure today of parting with funds to your company because Patrick was such a pleasure to deal with. His manner was professional and he demonstrated the greatest level of patience walking a neophyte through the process of moving my hosting from GoDaddy to your servers. I chose to do business with InMotion on the spot becuase I was able to experience extraordinary service and support consistent with what your marketing message proclaims. In this respect, you are light years ahead of your competition and Patrick is a testament to what makes your organization stand heads and shoulders above all others.”
