Our prime directives are to keep your site totally present on the internet and to help you utilize your
space on our equipment. Hosting Direct is run by full time professional
engineers and administrators who pay attention only to these tasks. Our maintenance and security are
preventive, hardware and networks impeccable.
Presence
We are present at the switch - building, growing and adding power and features on an ongoing basis.
This is a great place to house your online business or home your home page.
Pricing
The pricing is straight forward. While not the cheapest, we provide top quality resources in all
areas. We don't offer pie-in-the-sky oversold hosting plans and then hope you don't really use it.
Guaranteed
Take your time. Try out our servers. Play with the software. If for any reason you find
that we are not a good fit for your domain we will cheerfully refund all of your money
within the first thirty days.
Clean and Green
Solidload has offset all of the electricity used by our servers, routers and air conditioners with Mid-Atlantic 100% Wind energy. We support renewable energy through the purchase of Green-e certified Renewable Energy Certificates.
We had problems with the cut-rate host we started with. A friend helped us find SolidLoad. Yes, we pay a little bit more here, but now I can reaffirm the old adage: "You get what you pay for". -Dave (American Birders)

for what you don't need?
