Once the decision to collocate a server is taken, the next step is deciding on how much space you will need. We offer several options to best fit your needs and can customize them further if need be. Our most popular options are the 1U or 2U with a speed of 1x100Mbps. For a bit more space at the same speed rate we have 4U spaces, or Towers as they’re also known as. Medium sized companies do well with ¼ Cabinet, which is equal to 10U. The speed rate is 10x100Mbps and offers 10 outlets. Larger options are ½ Cabinets (21U) which have 20AMPs 110v outlets and run at a speed of 10Mbps or Full Cabinets (42U) which have 1x20 AMPs 110v outlets and run at a speed of 15Mbps. Drop us a line and we can help you select the best space for your business.

In this day in age, everyone is trying to do as much as possible to reduce their carbon footprint. Reusable grocery bags have picked up in popularity, nationwide 'lights out' events have taken place and public transportation has picked up steam. It's not just individuals that are being green; businesses have stepped up and taken steps towards becoming eco friendly environments. One lesser known method of reducing a business' energy emissions is by using a colocation server hosting company, such as Colocation America, rather than having an in-house data center. We use our expertise to outfit the centers with state of the art, energy efficient power sources which use a significant amount less power than an ineffective in-house data center. Our network engineers have mastered the proper way to configure and manage clients’ equipment to maximize its efficiency using the least amount of power. This not only helps the environment but reduces expenses as well.

Our clients have said that there is a piece of mind that comes with using Colocation America for their colocation needs as opposed to having an in-house data center. The average office simply doesn’t offer the specialized features that our colocation facilities provide. Our specifically designed cages, racks and cabinets are equipped with state of the art cooling systems which assure that the servers do not overheat. All of our facilities also have generators that will switch on automatically if the power should fail, ensuring that your data does not lag nor is lost. Extensive fire protection systems, including smoke detectors, fire sprinkler systems and preventive fire walls, are professionally implemented in order to detect any danger from the moment of inception. Your equipment is in good hands when you come onboard with Colocation America. We take care of you, so you can take care of the essence of your business.

While search engines can seem like an arbitrary selection of links to some, there is solid rhyme and reason to them. Colocation America’s SEO web hosting plans are an excellent way to boost our clients business to the top of search engine results. Frequented search engines such as Google, Yahoo! and Bing are the best places to strive for an increase in rankings. Our custom strategies can maximize exposure and deliver high rankings from search engine crawlers. There are several key factors that search engines take into account in order to determine a sites ranking; backlinks play in important role in that selection process. A websites’ backlink quality can be augmented by distributing IP addresses over various domains, this also shields against association with lesser quality domains.

For many of our clients, the best option in keeping all systems running smoothly is to have an outside source who will manage their servers. Colocation America’s managed dedicated server plans typically include network management, hardware management, software management and application management. Network management services consist of firewall, load balancing and VPN. Hardware management consists of web server/database installation, monitoring and clustering, while software management installs and configures your software and provides patches, upgrades and reliable backups. Most hosts’ application management services include installation and configuration, management and monitoring and they will provide consistent patches and upgrades. Companies turn to Colocation America for these needs because we  are available for your needs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, because you can never anticipate when a problem will arise.

Our clients like Linux because it is very flexible and adaptable to particular needs. Consumers can install their own applications and web services, analytic tools, security precautions and programming which best work for ones business. This systems best thrives in the Internet and networking environments.
