Usually hosting providers offer you a slew of confusing plans and packages with
many different prices, varying amounts of drive space, bandwidth...it's all difficult
to figure out at times. Blue Collar Hosting offers two plans: The Essential Plan and
The Complete Plan. If you need more space, or more bandwidth or more features, you
purchase them when you need them. We believe with this type of offering, you will be
getting a hosting plan tailored to your specific hosting needs, not someone elses needs.
Essential Plan
Our Essential Plan is loaded with all the features you need to get your website or web
application off the ground. The features in this plan are applicable to both businesses and
personal accounts. It's a great place to start, and you can always add more drive space or
purchase more bandwidth as you need it. You may also upgrade to the Complete Plan at any time
should you feel the need.
Complete Plan
The Complete Plan was designed for people looking to provide e-commerce or larger scale web
applications. The plan includes such features as: Shared SSL Certificates, Custom Error Pages,
Mime Type Management, DNS Zone Management, FrontPage Extensions, more domains, drive space and
bandwidth. As with the Essential Plan, you can further customize this plan should your resource
requirements grow beyond those offered by this plan.

separation of the core server from the storage engine makes it possible to run with strict
transaction control or with ultra-fast transactionless disk access, whichever is most appropriate
for the situation.
