* = What do we mean by truly private?
- The user account system must be unique to each wiki family, if not unique to each wiki. (A wiki family is defined as a group of wikis which are controlled by the same owner and are complementary to each other.)
- Beyond the wiki's users, only employees of the wiki host can have access to private wikis.
- Systems of additional authentication, such as imgauth, HTTP authentication, and IP address allowlists, which are necessary for the wiki to be 100% inaccessible to non-authenticated users, should be available upon request.
As you can see, there are many different kinds of wiki hosts with many different kinds of business models. Some specialize in high-performance wikis, and others focus on personal/hobbyist wikis. At MyWikis, we host all sorts of wikis. From public hobbyist wikis to large private corporate/organizational wikis, we've got you covered with reasonable, affordable prices. Best of all, our business model ensures we're here to stay for years to come. By not relying on donations or ad revenue, which can be unpredictable, we can guarantee your wiki will be up and running as long as you're with us. We provide personal, tailored customer support to you and employ software engineers to make your experience like no other wiki host's.
