With regular updates, search engines like Google will notice that your website is active. Every time you publish something on your company website you create one more opportunity to show up in search engines. This in turn will drive traffic to your site, especially in organic search.

This is why we offer our Professional Edition clients 60 minutes per month and our Enterprise Edition clients 120 minutes per month free access to one of our content marketing specialists.

All you need to do is send us your latest news and we will update your business website pages or blog for you.

Blogging, social media interactions and using search engines, drives traffic to your site. With each blog post published, you are adding another indexed page to your website.

By actively blogging, search engines such as Google will start regularly checking your site for new content, driving up your rankings.

Disk over-usage will be charged at R5.00 per 10 MB. If you have reached your capacity, we will discuss your options to avoid over-usage charges, such as deleting unnecessary data. Usually the biggest culprit are emails not being deleted off the server.

It could also be that your website is using more data because it has been growing. If this is the case, it's great news, and we will help you look at options to upgrading to a more suitable package to accommodate your growth.

What does unlimited mean? - Unlimited means that HOTarabica does not impose a quota limit.

Traffic no longer the first point of constraint in shared hosting, rather traffic is subject to reasonable use and not restricted by a quota.

A fraction of websites have always generated the vast majority of traffic. The use of quotas capped the risk of pushing aggregate traffic consumption beyond a viable threshold.

However, traffic costs have persistently declined over time, to the extent that they can be regarded as no longer being the first point of constraint. The server hardware infrastructure has now assumed that role.

The term ‘shared hosting’ implies that a server is shared by multiple customers.

HOTarabica’s powerful servers are typically underutilised with their low ratio of sites per server. This allows websites to grow and spike without compromising performance. 99% of websites will exist in this dynamic environment.

How will I know that my site is unsuited to a shared hosting server?

Simply, if one site singularly compromises shared server performance it has outgrown that environment. Less than 1% of sites are affected.

Determining that threshold upfront is difficult. We actively monitor server performance and will contact a site owner if necessary to discuss alternatives.

One of the main causes of this would be high demand. Where no gains in efficiency can be made, a dedicated server is the natural outcome.

It is also important to observe our Acceptable Use Policy (AUP).

SEO Pro for our professional edition clients is on-page SEO which covers things like SEO Title (the heading that appears in search engines like Google), Meta Description (this is the text below your SEO title that summarizes a page's content) as well as the focus keyword we want your page to be found with.

We will also submit your page to Google to make sure it gets indexed. Oh, and we will also create a SiteMap making it easier for search engines to index you.

SEO Enterprise for our enterprise edition clients includes all the features of the Professional edition. On top of that we have loaded it with some powerful add-ons like in-depth page optimisation, keyword targeting and image optimisation.

We will further focus on keyword density (how many times your chosen keyword appears in the text) as well as adding appropriate internal and external links to relevant content.

The only other fee that is payable is your annual domain name renewal with the Registrar of Domains, which we sort out on your behalf, and bill you annually on the anniversary month. We will always let you know before we add this to your debit order. This ensures your domain remains registered to you and does not lapse.

This fee is added to your first debit order run when you first sign up with us, which also covers any registration costs of a new domain or the transfer of your existing domain to our server. Your first debit order is always done on receipt of your signed debit order. All fees are payable monthly in advance.
