Sites with Banners, Graphics or CGI Scripts running from their domain used on other domains (example is a site running a Banner Exchange). High Yield Income Programs (HYIP) Sites, Web Sites offering download files or archives. (Please see Disk Usage Guidelines).

a) Use 15% or more of system resources for longer then 90 seconds. There are numerous activities that could cause such problems; these include: CGI scripts, FTP, PHP, HTTP, etc.
b) Run stand-alone, unattended server-side processes at any point in time on the server. This includes any and all daemons, such as IRCD.
c) Run any type of web spider or indexer (including Google Cash / AdSpy) on shared servers.

WordPress Usage & Modules
We do not allow any WordPress caching modules on our shared or reseller hosting services. WordPress caching modules continually cause server overload problems. These modules include but are not limited to ones listed here.
Disk Usage Guidelines
75% or more of your content on your website must be linked from an HTML or similarly coded web page where all content is freely available to the public. Your website consists of web pages of a standard design, essentially HTML based text and graphics. Downloadable files, media, streaming content or any file which consumes more than 50 MB of space must not exceed 25% of your total used disk quota.
Web Space provided on QualityHostOnline servers is NOT to be used for any kind of backups.
Clients using disk space to store backups or other content in violation of these Disk Usage Guidelines may have their services revoked without prior notice OR they will be required to pay for backup service charges @ $10 per 1 GB per month.
Accounts using more disk space than allowed will also be removed from the onsite and offsite backup systems.
INODES / File Count
The use of more than 100,000 inodes on any shared account may potentially result in suspension. Accounts found to be exceeding the 100,000 inode limit will automatically be removed from our backup system to avoid overusage. Every file (a webpage, image file, email, etc) on your account uses up 1 inode. Accounts that cross the 200,000 file count / Inode limit may be suspended without prior notice.
Accounts that constantly create and delete large numbers of files on a regular basis, have hundreds of thousands of files, or cause file system damage WILL be flagged for review and/or suspension.
The primary cause of excessive inodes seems to be due to users leaving their catchall address enabled, but never checking their primary account mailbox. Over time, tens of thousands of messages (or more) build up, eventually pushing the account past our inode limit. To disable your default mailbox, login to cPanel and choose "Mail", then "Default Address", "Set Default Address", and then type in: :fail: No such user here
Adult Content
Adult-oriented sites are NOT allowed. This includes sites that are associated with bestiality or child pornography, sites which promote hate against any group. Sites of such nature will be removed immediately and will not be refunded. This is also true for sites that promote any illegal activity or content that may be damaging to our servers or any other server on the Internet, or provide links to such sites.
Audio / Video Content
We allow multimedia files (QuickTime, Real Audio, Real Video, MP3/MP4, Windows Media) ONLY if you legally own the content of these files. For example, you can store the home videos you created with your movie camera / handycam but you CANNOT store a video or movie you purchased from someone else.
On Personal Plans, each individual audio / video file should not be larger than 20 MB. On Business Plans each file can be up to 50 MB.
