Hosting & Email.

Hosting for your website and email, provisioned, secured and monitored, with direct access to the team that supports it.

Choosing the right hosting

Shared Hosting, VPS or Dedicated Server.

All three keep a website online. They differ in how much of the server is yours, how much load it can carry, and the level of investment required.

Website hosting

Shared Hosting

Your website shares one server, and its processor, memory and storage, with other websites.

Best forCompany websites, landing pages, brochure sites and blogs with steady, moderate traffic.
Resources
Shared with other accounts on the server
Traffic and load
Light to moderate visitors, few simultaneous users
Database
Small databases and simple queries
Files and storage
Standard pages, images and documents
Control
Managed control panel, no server access
Investment
Entry level

Virtual private server

VPS Hosting

A private portion of a server with processor, memory and storage reserved for you alone.

Best forOnline stores, customer portals, booking systems and business applications with regular logged-in users.
Resources
Guaranteed CPU, RAM and storage, isolated from other tenants
Traffic and load
Sustained traffic and many concurrent users
Database
Larger databases with frequent queries and transactions
Files and storage
Large file libraries, uploads and scheduled backups
Control
Root access and custom server configuration
Investment
Mid level, scaled to the resources reserved
View VPS & Dedicated Hosting
Dedicated server

Dedicated Server

An entire physical server used by your organisation only. Nothing is shared.

Best forERP and warehouse systems, high-volume platforms and data that must be kept separate for compliance.
Resources
The whole machine, with no other tenants
Traffic and load
Heavy, continuous load and peak-hour surges
Database
High query volumes, reporting and integrations running together
Files and storage
Very large data sets and long retention periods
Control
Full control of hardware, operating system and security policy
Investment
Highest, suited to business-critical systems

When to upgrade

When to Move Beyond Shared Hosting.

  • Pages slow down at peak hours.Other websites on the same server are competing for the same resources.
  • Your site runs an application, not only pages.Logins, orders, bookings and reports place a constant load on the database.
  • You handle payments or personal data.Isolation, and control over security settings, become a requirement.
  • You need software the shared plan does not allow.Custom services, scheduled jobs and integrations need server-level access.
  • Downtime now has a business cost.Reserved resources and dedicated monitoring reduce that exposure.
  • Files and backups keep growing.Storage and backup windows outgrow what a shared account provides.

Unsure which applies? We review your current site, traffic and database load, and recommend the tier that fits. Most organisations start on shared hosting and move up as usage grows.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions.

What is managed hosting?

Managed hosting includes the maintenance a server requires: updates, security patching, backups and monitoring. Unmanaged hosting leaves that work to you. If no one on your team is responsible for patching, managed hosting is the appropriate choice.

Should our website and email be hosted together?

Usually not on the same server. Separation means a website issue does not interrupt mail, and either service can be moved independently.

When should we move off shared hosting?

The usual indicators are slow performance at peak periods, reaching resource limits, requiring software the shared platform does not permit, or holding data that must not sit alongside another tenant.

Can you migrate our existing site and email?

Yes. Migration is scheduled for a low-activity window, with everything staged and verified before DNS is switched, so the cutover is short and reversible.
