"After doing some comparison shopping, I decided to change hosting companies and go with TierHost because they not only provided a wide array of "extra" features like the latest blogging and photo gallery software, but also for their super competitive pricing. I've already recommended convinced two other friends to make the switch to Tierhost who are also quite happy about their decision. The customer service is top notch. Never before had I had such pleasurable experiences in dealing with a company. I never feel like I'm causing an inconvenience when asking for help and who else can you find to install all of the latest software and configure it for free?!? All of my requests for technical assistance were answered within hours in a professional, knowledgeable and friendly manner."

Anti-Virus for all Email Accounts
All Web Hosting plans come with Anti-Virus powered by ClamAV. Our servers are updated daily with the latest virus signature files to ensure that we are current with the latest known viruses.
