Host your site on our dedicated server

We maintain a dedicated server at EV1 Servers’ data center in Houston, Texas. In plain English, we lease our very own server in a high-tech, heavily monitored facility.

EV1 Servers maintains the most sophisticated network operating center in the world. Their data centers feature the highest security measures, 24-hour manned monitoring, and multiple layers of redundancy connecting 30,000 servers to more than 25 Gigabits of Internet bandwidth.

Server stats

Intel Celeron 2.0GHz processor
(2) 80GB hard drives
1GB memory
RedHat Enterprise Linux

Hosting and maintenance plans on our dedicated server cost between $25–200 per month depending on bandwidth needs, server load, and the amount of upkeep required for your site. Maintenance includes:

  • daily backups of your data (see below)
  • upgrading all web software installed on you site
  • applying security patches as they are released
  • one-call, no-hold tech support

Large-scale, support-intensive websites are subject to additional hosting fees.

Data integrity and system uptime

We maintain regular backups of your data

  • Our server performs daily backups to its second hard drive, protecting your data against accidental loss or hard drive failure
  • For added protection against catestrophic failure, we perform weekly, offsite backups to our secondary host at DreamHost

No downtime due to power failure

  • EV1’s municipal power service level is Critical Customer, similar to Hospital Service level
  • For backup power, EV1 maintains three 16-cylinder, 3,000 horsepower Cummins Marine generators, each of which is tested weekly

Third-party hosting via DreamHost

For customers with less demanding hosting needs, we suggest DreamHost.
