Adult Definitions

Learn what Adult words mean and how to use them

AVS (Adult Verification System):
An Adult Verification System (AVS) sets up a password protected entry for web sites that do not want their web sites to be "publicly accessible" to people under the age of 18. AVS systems benefit the webmasters by providing them a free age verification service for their sites. AVS systems benefit the surfer by issuing them an adult ID which allows them to access all the participating sites with one password. By signing up with a age verification system, you only have to verify your age once.

Dedicated Hosting:
Is when you host your site on a whole server, and you are the sole user of this box, this is far superior to shared hosting of course because then you know how much strain you are putting on the server. And most importanly you don't own this server you lease it on a month to month basis.

Semi-Dedicated Hosting
An added twist, is when you share half a server or a quarter of a server, generally the host limits the number of users on the server, some places I have seen this as high as 6, and as low as 2. Of course this doesn't mean that the server is going to perform any better
