Maine Website Hosting and Design

We can register your domain name, arrange for design of your web site, host your web site and scrub your email clean of virtually all spam and viruses. Once you are online, we can offer ongoing guidance on search engine optimization.

Our web hosting fee is $12.50/month (billed annually). You will get more space (1 Gigabyte), more bandwidth (5 Gigabytes/month) and more email addresses (unlimited) than you will ever need.

We also offer a web hosting/SEO combo plan at $50/month (billed annually) that can address your initial search engine optimization requirements and set-up of Google webmaster tools such as Sitemap and Analytics. In addition, our ongoing SEO services include creation and management of Google AdWords campaigns.

Our website design partner is based in Livermore Falls and is efficient and responsive. We also offer AJAX, Javascripting and other state-of-the art software development help to give you the website you want.

We host government websites, non-profit websites, event and festival websites, and private entity websites. For a list of some of the sites designed and hosted by the Maine.Info/Protean Graphics team see our Hosted Website List. Also see our Letters of Recommendation. We look forward to having you join us too!

Dedicated Web Server

We provide website hosting on a dedicated web server complete with RAID redundant disk drives, daily backups and Plesk control panel. The web server is located at a major internet exchange facility to ensure maximum speed and responsiveness. The data center offers additional redundancy in power, HVAC, network connectivity and security. Full UPS battery backup power and diesel generators are on site, as well as a state-of-the-art fire suppression system. The data center is supplied by several separate networks including Level 3, Savvis and AT&T. The fiber provided to the data center is also provided over redundant paths, with two 10 Gigabit Ethernet lines feeding the center, plus additional fiber pairs. The data center itself was previously operated by 360 Networks and was built to telecommunications grade specifications.

Server Applications

Over 50 free applications exist on our server for your use. These include Joomla (content management), Gallery (photo management), osCommerce (e-commerce solution), and WordPress (blogs).
