Elevated X CMS Now Supports Use of GoDaddy Hosting

LOS ANGELES — Adult content management system provider, Elevated X, has announced that it now supports use of GoDaddy shared hosting plans within its adult site CMS product.

Elevated X won XBIZ Awards for Software Company of The Year in 2012, 2014 and 2015 and is one of the adult industry’s most widely used site management software products.

With the recently released CMS version 4.0, Elevated X users can now take advantage of ultra-cheap hosting plans from companies such as GoDaddy. This means that users of both the Elevated X Basic and Elevated X Pro CMS versions can run sites on GoDaddy's virtual hosting plans starting at a little as $10.99 per month including required host resource upgrades.

“We realize that high hosting cost is one of the biggest barriers to entry for new site owners," said Elevated X co-founder AJ Hall. "Site owners will need to upgrade their hosting as more members join but we’ve made it possible for our entry level and startup customers to start developing new sites on cheap hosting and pay next to nothing for hosting services until they begin to scale up in traffic and their sales levels increase.”

For a brand new starter site, Elevated X now recommends a shared hosting setup with at least 512MB of RAM available (1GB preferred), and 5GB of hard drive space free. This opens up Elevated X customers to running new sites on shared hosting and VPS installs.

“We’ve eliminated the need for someone to spend hundreds of dollars a month for dedicated server hosting long before they actually need it. And what’s even better, the CMS now supports video encoding on shared hosting which was not possible previously," Hall added.

The company tells XBIZ that this move is part of an initiative it began last year to implement a series of changes to make it cheaper for people to start higher quality web sites.
