Features

To make your website picture perfect.

AmbitiousLemon offers you an impressive array of tools and freedoms to build and manage your website. Server-side technologies such as PHP, Perl, Ruby on Rails, MySQL, and PostgreSQL are necessary to create your own dynamic website or to install popular blogging applications such as Wordpress and Typo. At AmbitiousLemon we put these fundamental internet technologies in your hands. We have also provided you with more specialized tools such as the SubVersion version control system. For the software developers we host, SubVersion is an invaluable tool in managing their software planning and development. SubVersion can also be used to track changes made to your website. Whether your needs are general or specialized we will work with you to provide you with the tools you need to create the best website possible.

Because AmbitiousLemon is a free community based service we don't believe in setting arbitrary limits to your web hosting services. Many features are unlimited, such as email addresses, mailing lists, and databases. Other features, while not quite unlimited, are community resources shared by all our members, and, when managed carefully and respectfully, can provide for all our members in a nearly unlimited fashion. These community resources are our bandwidth and our storage space. Some members only use a few megabytes a month of bandwidth, while others use several gigabytes a day. We will work with you to try to conserve this precious community resource, while also giving you the room you need to be successful. With over 150GB of community storage for our members and separate drives for backups we have not yet needed to set any limits on individual members' storage space. For most members storage space and bandwidth will feel nearly unlimited, as the server has more than enough of both of these community resources to go around.

Not only do we provide you with unlimited email addresses, aliases, and forwards, but we also provide you with flexibility in how you choose to read and check your email. With both POP3 and IMAP support you will be able to check your email from any email client you prefer. We also provide access to email through a webmail interface. Webmail means that even when you do not have access to your own computer, you can still check your email in a safe, convenient, and user-friendly manner. And no matter how and where you chose to check your email, you can do so confidently knowing that Ambitiouslemon employs advanced technologies to identify spam email and viruses.

Every good web hosting service provides you with a control panel to manage your website. Webmin is the web hosting industry's most widely used open-source control panel. The Webmin control panel offers unrivaled speed, flexibility, and stability. You are in the driver's seat with access to tools to manage your user and email accounts, subdomains, configuration files, and much more.

Detailed website statistics can be some of the most useful resources in learning how to create the website your users want, rather than the website you think they want. AmbitiousLemon provides you with the Webalizer website statistics package. Webalizer generates detailed site statistics allowing you to investigate trends in how your users use your website. By tracking such useful figures as search words, enter and exit pages, and traffic patterns down to every hour you can better manage how you grow your website. Discover which pages your users are most interested in, which files are using the most bandwidth, and what browsers and operating systems are most popular. Webalizer lets you find the best ways to serve your users.
