About Us
Our Background :
In 2005, a group of like-minded individuals including web designers, programmers, and information technology technicians got together to work on several projects and web solutions. Our focus was on web design and development, at that time we did not offer hosting services. Instead, we referred our clients to third-party hosting companies. After numerous requests and careful consideration we made the decision to offer hosting services to our clientele.In 2006, with a mission of offering superior services we began DFG Hosting to offer a full range of hosting services. Support and reliability that is second to none has allowed us to grow in the competitive and growing web hosting and web services industry.
Why should you use DFG Hosting?
Most companies that offer hosting services are in reality middlemen. They purchase hosting services and resell them. They are generally difficult to contact and offer little in the way of service or support. Not so at DFG Hosting. We own our servers, they belong to us.When comparing hosting plans you will notice that many other hosts offer “Unlimited space and Bandwidth”. In reality, nothing is “Unlimited” and we decided not to follow the crowd with the misleading offers that cannot be fulfilled. Every hosting company knows that the average website uses very little space and bandwidth. If you reach your limits on your “Unlimited” space, you will not receive a full range of services such as backups and image or file storage not directly related to the operation of your website.
Another common practice is overselling, or putting too many websites on one “box” in order to increase profits at your expense. In such situations, you could be sharing server space with literally hundreds of other websites. This practice puts your online presence at risk, jeopardizing security, performance and speed.
Our goal is to be honest with our offers and services and to give you what you pay for. If you order 10GB of space, you get 10GB of space. We do not limit your backups and we do not limit your ability to host unrelated files, images or applications. We also do not participate in the practice of overselling. If you have a problem, we are responsive, and we act quickly to rectify them as quickly as possible.
