Hosting, Domain Names and Email

There are a couple of technical requirements for placing your site on the web:

• Hosting
• A domain name

We can provide a full end-to-end service for you (and worry about the details ourselves), or help you make the most of your existing resources.

Hosting

Hosting is the disk space you ‘rent’ to hold your website. This is usually offered yearly, though 24-month and 36-month lock-in terms do exist. Our hosting is provided on a 12-month term basis and is offered with a 30-day satisfaction money-back guarantee [terms apply].

Not all hosting is equal- be aware that some hosts charge extra for basic additions, such as email addresses, databases etc...

We provide a package that gives you power and flexibility for a great price. The package includes:

• PHP, SSI, Apache-ASP and Perl for running dynamic sites
• A MySQL database (multiple databases on request)
• Fully hosted (POP3) email accounts
• Additional webmail access for your mailboxes
• A control panel to manage and monitor your site

Hosts also vary with regards to the amount of disk space and monthly data transfer they provide. Our base-level small business package gives you generous allowances- and we can easily extend these to suit your particular requirements.

Domain Name

The domain name is the address of your website. We can register most popular site extensions for you, including:

• .co.uk
• .com
• .net
• .biz
• .org
• .info
• .org.uk
• .me

Domain names are usually provided by the international domain registration services on a yearly basis- we can set up and manage your domain for you and can also offer you help selecting the appropriate domain name for your business.

Just Email

There are benefits to having your own domain just for email- you'll have a very personal address and won't be tied to your ISP or a particular email provider in the future. You can also create disposable email addresses for yourself to help manage junk mail. Contact us for a special deal.

Unhappy with your Current Hosting?

If your current host is unreliable or unhelpful then we can help you move your site to our service.

Even if you already have a domain name, it's very likely that you'd be able to swap to our hosting without any hassle.

You may have an existing basic website with a large provider (e.g. Geocities, Tripod, Lycos, etc...) but want to grow it to have a proper personalised domain name and the ability to do more. We can help you relocate and expand your site to give you a more professional front.
