While Microsoft's web hosting is free, users are limited to a specific group of design templates. Images can be uploaded and text can be pasted into the template. Site owners log in through a secure website and access a control panel. The control panel includes the web design tools, site traffic reports and management functions for e-mail.
Features
Microsoft's web hosting comes with 500MB of server space, which is superior to most paid web services. There is an e-commerce add-on feature, which provides a shopping cart and secure site with 128-bit secure socket layering, or SSL. Domain hosting is also provided for $14.95 per year. Without a registered domain, customers are assigned a
.live.com address.
Email Accounts
With the web hosting comes access to 100 e-mail addresses for the company. These accounts include advertising on the webmail portal and in the footer of incoming mail messages to the mail client. Customers can pay $19.95 per year to remove the ads with the premium mail add-on. As part of the premium mail, users receive full e-mail, contacts and calendar synchronization with Microsoft Outlook. Since e-mail runs through Microsoft Live, virus protection and SPAM filtering services are included.
E-Commerce
The product's e-commerce capabilities feature a robust, database-driven architecture. With a capacity to catalog 10,000 items, business owners can manage product descriptions, set up sales tax tables, shipping and handling programs and inventory. The e-commerce tools also feature eBay integration, permitting business owners to offer products on their own store and on the online auction site.
Document Manager
One feature of the web hosting product is a document manager. This allows central storage of critical documents and manages versions so that the most up-to-date file is available to employees. While the document manager is primarily an internal tool, it has a feature to password protect and release files online. This would allow potential customers to pick up sales proposals or upload files in return.
