We now offer hosting too!

We are please to announce that we are now offering web hosting as part of our growing selection of web design and development services.

We have used many hosts over the years, chosen by ourselves but many being the clients existing server. Some are leagues better than others, however we have yet to have found a server, that hand on heart we can rely on and truly recommend.

We have now! - having partnered with our developer partners 'Better Brief' we offer good value hosting with a server which has been primed to run our CMS of choice (SilverStripe CMS) like a dream.

Whilst we are obviously happy to work with any other server that client's wish to use, we add total server support and a level of reliability which is simply unrivaled should you choose to place your hosting with us as well as your web project (we only offer hosting services for websites we build).

Our typical package specification includes;

  • 5gb space
  • Unmetered bandwidth
  • 1 main domain name (to be purchased separately)
  • Unlimited MySQL databases
  • Unlimited email-addresses (webmail, POP3, IMAP and SMTP, FTP,  SpamAssassin email filtering)
  • Powerful server specification fine tuned for ultimate SilverStripe CMS stability
  • Technical support (issues must be raised by email)
  • 24/7 server monitoring by specialist SilverStripe CMS developers
  • Low contention ratio - server has a lot of unused resources
  • Daily off-site backups
  • Control panel

Additional host services available on request:

  • SSH access
  • CRON jobs
  • DNS control
  • Auto-responders for email
  • Sub-domains
  • Personalised nameservers (charges apply)

Our prices vary depending on the website, typically however hosting is £120 for 6 months or £220 per annum*.

Whilst we are the first to admit these costs are not as low as some of the 'server farms' out there, we believe that for professional SilverStripe CMS websites - our hosting is worth every penny.
