Unmatched Speed and Performance
Our data centers are located on IXPs which create a virtual shortcut between your site and your visitors. Global communication partners allow your site to jump across networks, reaching your visitors faster. Dual high performance fiber optics link directly from the ISP to your server, which creates an instantaneous connection. All-SSD servers are 20X faster than the traditional HDDs many of our competitors still use. Triple-tier server-level caching “pre-loads” your files to avoid disk reads, making your site load faster. Max Speed Zones give you ultimate choice in site speed. All of these technical enhancements really do one single thing – make your websites load as fast as possible.
I contacted InMotion Hosting about setting up an account. I accessed the chat function to get answers to some questions I had and was put in contact with Patrick O. He answered all my questions, informed me of a discount that was even larger than I originally thought I would get and in general was extremely helpful to me. If all of your sales people are like him and if your tech support people are also like him then I can see why you have received some great reviews from people. It was a refreshing change from my previous hosting company.”
