WEB SERVICES

Hosting services

We offer hosting services on LINUX, UNIX, NT and Windows 2000. These servers are hosted in secure data centres with redundant backup lines and load balancing.

Costs depend on the requirement, performance and facilities required but start at as little as £10/month+VAT for the smaller website up to £1000's per month for dedicated servers with GB's data transfer per month for digital media data streaming.

All our customer hosting requirements are different so we don't quote prices as it depends on the technical requirements. This site is hosted on one of our LINUX servers.

Domain names

We offer simple domain name registration with no quirks. Registering a domain name could be a valuable investment. It has the same characteristics as real world property but it's in a different format. Domains have and will continue to go up in value provided you look after them and increase their value by making something of the name. A name is unlikely to gain any value if you just cybersqat the name[more information].

Connectivity

We currently do not offer dial up solutions. This is because there are many companies who specialise in this area and we could not offer a competitive service. We fully support the move towards unmetered access and the roll out of ADSL. If you need advice on which ISP to use you will probably find ISPREVEW very useful.

We use email forwarding so that you can register and host a domain on our servers while having the flexibility to switch connectivity ISP as your circumstance change. You may be using AOL or Yahoo today. You may get NTL or Telewest as your cable provider or you may be using them already and want to move house which means if you are using your cable provider as your email provider you will have to change your email address. Our services our geared towards masking the connectivity provider with your own domain and email address which is forwarded to the address you pick up from - a bit like a post office box number. This is a very neat solution which means you are not tied to anyone - only your own domain name. As long as you pay the registry fees every two years it is yours.

We will provide ADSL services when they are available in the area of our business.

If you have a requirement that you would like to talk to us about please call or email us using the contact details on the contact page.

Wireless Application Protocol (WAP)

If you are interested in WAP we are able to offer WAP hosting. You may find our free guide to WAP useful. Please feel free to contact usto discuss requirements. We are happy to provide formal quotes for hosting services and respond to RFF or ITT documents.

Language translation

If your business covers a number of different countries then you will want to have your website translated into other languages. We offer a translation service into most European Languages. This requires an understanding of how different character sets will operate. We work with a preferred partner for the translation but manage the integration of the translated document into your website.
