Simple & Effective

Web Hosting for Businesses & Individuals

Make sure you host with a reliable, cost-effective company with good customer support.

Web hosting is the process of leasing space on a server to deliver websites that are accessible via the World Wide Web. We've worked with many excellent Web Hosting companies over the years and plenty of not-so-good ones too. The most important thing to look for with Web Hosts is good customer support. Expect servers to go wrong occasionally; it's how fast the team can then jump on to the problem and answer your support emails that counts. We offer hosting for sites that we develop on a reliable Linux server, or we can guide you to one of several third party hosts that we'd recommend.

hosting

Websites that we develop can be hosted on one of our reliable managed CentOS Linux servers with daily server backups.

ssl certificates

For those websites that require it, we offer ssl certificates for the encryption of sensitive data such has credit card holder information.

keeping up-to-date

We run the newest versions of PHP and MySQL, fully updated for security.

domain names

Web hosting is of course only half the story; you will also need a domain name. We can help you register a domain name, or if you want to register one yourself, we recommend using 123-reg. When choosing a domain name, it's best to keep it short and, if possible, choose one that contains some of your target keywords for search engine purposes. We recommend .com domains as a first choice and .co.uk as a second choice for UK based companies. Third choice would be .net or .org.uk for charities. Anything else we'd recommend avoiding for now.
