Research UK Web Hosting Companies Before You Sign Up

Web Hosting Terms - Links to other websites

 

I have created this website to help web users find web hosting services in the U.K. If you are looking for web hosting services in the United Kingdom (England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland), make sure you enquire about the price, bandwidth allowance, website references and support issues. Once you have signed up, you are required to pay a monthly fee whether you are using their services or not. You may want to switch to another UK web hosting company if you are not satisfied with the host you that you have chosen, but switching to another host can be time-consuming and costly. Be extra careful when signing up with any host.

Network Information
The Artic Web data centre offers a secure, resilient environment for our web hosting platform. Based in a secure facility the data centre is built to an N+1 specification, so that if any particular service fails - e.g. electricity or air conditioning - another backup service automatically takes over the failed service's job.

Dual power feeds enter the building at different points and Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) ensure that all power to the server area is clean and spike free. In the event of a power outage the UPS can take the entire data centre load for up to five minutes. However within 20 seconds our redundant generators are able to indefinitely take on the entire data centre load.

Our data centre is manned 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so that if anything goes wrong engineers can respond quickly and effectively to the problem.

Access to our data centre is via a master access list using Smart Card authentication. Access to the data centre is by authorisation only.

Hosting Tips
Ask your host to pay for your domain name.
If you want to host a NEW domain name, you can request the hosting company to pay your domain name for you. The cost of domain registration and renewal is about £6 per year.

Minimize your website expenses
If you are unusual about hosting and if you are still in the development and testing stage of your website, go for cheap hosting service. You save money by minimizing your website expenses on the initial stage, and once your site is ready for public to view, you can always decide to stay or move to another host. Always choose to host with reliable hosts that offer responsive technical support.

Read user reviews and hosting news
If you already have a host, and you intend to switch and search for another host, always start your search by reading user reviews and hosting news. This is simply because hosting companies that are always in the news are always innovating to provide better, cheaper, faster, newer or more efficient hosting services in the current marketplace. User review are comments provided by the people who have used and experienced their hosting services. Read users reviews to find out the actual hosting services provided by the hosts to help you decide which hosts suit your budget and plans.
