What is Green Hosting?

What is Green Hosting? In this video I define what green hosting is, what it means, why you may want to switch to it, and some of the best green hosting companies available. My top picks for Green Hosting are: GreenGeeks - http://greencosm.com/greengeeks AISO - http://greencosm.com/aiso Here is a transcript of this video: Hi, my name is Scott Paterson and I just want to make a quick video about green web hosting. I just kind of wan to talk about what Green hosting is. And why it might be important to you. And I want to definite it and also talk about a few of the companies out there that offer green web hosting. So lets define it, green web hosting means that the server which powers websites runs off of electricity that comes from renewable source. So this might be solar, wind, geothermic, etc. Now lets talk about what I web host might be that not green. That would be one that uses coal, natural gas, a reactor, or things like that. Those are non renewable. So there is basically two categories of green web sites that I have found. The first one is, and we have an example of it open here, its called aiso.net. They have their own datacenter, which they built, in the southern californaica desert, and they put solar panels on top of that datacenter, and it gives all the power that the entire complex needs to run, completely powered by solar. And they do not even have a grid tie in, they are not connected to the grid in any way. So thats one categority of green web hosting. The other categority is, and here is an example of it called GreenGeeks. What GreenGeeks does is they use power use power just like every other, or almost every other web host, and they purchase it from the grid, and it may come from a non renewable source such as coal. But what they do is they purchase wind credits. They purchase these credits and they purchase three times the amount that they use. So if they use one unit of coal energy. Then they purchase three units of wind energy. Some people think that this is a good idea. Some people don't. It's kind of a debate currently going on, wther wind credits are beneficial. And there is also solar credits, this company doesn't use them but some other companies do. I think that in my opinion, I think its a good step in the right direction. And I definitely like the fact that they are purchasing more then they are using, they purchasing three times the amount that they are using. As opposed to just one time the amount which is what a lot of other companies do. And that is one of the reason why I wanted to talk about this company specifically. AISO.net like I said a minute ago has their own datacenter with their own solar panels, and is not connected to the grid in any way. Once again that also poses a few problems. Are they being more efficient by having their own datacenter or are actually using more resources in the long run. Would they be better off and use less resources if they had relied upon the grid. Umm, so both companies can have arguments for them but I just kind of wanted to paint a picture of what a green web hosting company is. And in my opinion, AISO.net and GreenGeeks.com are the two number one, they are both number one, best green web hosting companies available on the market today. So I hope that gives you an idea of what Green Hosting is and why you might want to go with it for your business. I think that a lot of people don't understand how much power servers really use. And, they use a lot, they are running 24/7. And um, a lot of the internet isn't very clean. So I definitely think that it's important to go with a green web host. And I hope that you choose one of the ones that I have mentioned today or if you have another one please send me a message or post it in the comments of this video. I would love to hear what it is.
