1. Do you offer dial-up accounts?
eVirtualWorld does not offer dial-up accounts for two reasons. Offering dial-up accounts would increase our overhead, thereby reflecting in higher prices to you the consumer. Offering dial-up accounts would compromise your bandwidth available to hosting your website.



2. Can I host an adult site on your server?
We do not allow adult sites on our server because of their controversial nature. We do not condone the practice of pornography on the Internet.



3. Can I have a public FTP server?
eVirtualWorld does not allow public FTP servers for security purposes. We only provide a private FTP for maintaining your web site. As an alternative, we suggest offering files directly from your web site.



4. Can I sublease or give away portions of my webspace to others?
evirtualworld does not warrant the use of subleasing of your domain name. We are offering very competitive rates which should satisfy anyone who needs web space. We put a restriction on subleasing because of the possible abuse that may occur with unlimited storage and bandwidth.



5. How can you offer your web space, bandwidth & email at such reasonable rates?
Our belief is that a majority of people are not going to need a great deal of storage, bandwidth, or email accounts. In the long run, people with small web sites are not over charged and people with large web sites get a "Bigger bang for their Buck". However, if an individual site is going to monopolize server performance and/or resources, then these sites may incur an additional fee placed on their account. This is addressed further on our Terms & Conditions Page



6. Who owns the Domain Name when I register with Your Company?
You are the rightful owner of your sub domain. You will be registered with eVirtualWorld as a separate legal company operating under the evirtualworld web site.



7. What does the Domain Registration fee cover?
The Domain Registration fee of $10 covers your right to the sub-domain name for 2 years. This is a processing fee which is embedded in the monthly hosting charges. The cost is $10 or each year after to keep the sub-domain name registered to you.



8. What if someone has a Trademark on a name used in my Domain Name?
It is up to the person registering the domain to be sure they are not infringing on anyone else's trademark by either using their exact name or close similarities.



9. How long will it take to register my new Domain Name?
Depending on the amount of traffic your site will be registered as early as that same day or up to a a few days after submission.



10. How long before the rest of the Internet can connect to my Domain Name?
Your sub-domain name should be available within a couple of days. Please be patient. Updates to different parts of the Internet community may take longer than others.



11. What is the process to signup or transfer a domain to evirtualworld?
Signing up with evirtualworld is easy, just fill out our online signup form and we will take care of the rest, such as registering your domain and sending you confirmation when your account is ready. About a day or two after you have signed up, evirtualworld will send you a Domain Agreement.
