Frequently Asked Questions
What is web hosting?
Web Hosting is the ability for you to use our hardware and infrastructure to host or manage your websites. We manage a vast data centre and Server farm that we slice up and allow you to use. Your customers get world class performance and availability and you pay a fraction of the costs of purchasing & managing servers in-house.
What is shared hosting?
Web hosting is sometimes known as shared hosting, this is because we share or slice the capability of the platform and allow you to put your website on a small fraction of it. Then we manage and support the platform as a whole to make sure your site is always available for your customers.
What’s the difference between shared and dedicated servers?
With a Hosting account we slice the server and storage capability and give your website a small proportion of it. With a Dedicated Server portfolio, you get what it says on the tin… you get a whole server all to yourself.

All contracts are based on a 12 month term which you can pay annually or monthly you can of course upgrade a plan during this term.
Support Included?
Yes, we can help with anything you need and we can give you 24/7 contact so you can get help anytime on all hosting services.
