Hosting packages

Our web servers use up-to-date hardware and server software and are hosted in a secure UK data-centre with industry leading engineers on hand. As well as being UK based, our servers sit on one of the best UK high-speed data networks providing a fast, reliable experience for visitors when visiting our sites from the UK, Europe and the US.

We only allow a small collection of Tickbox clients on our dedicated servers and monitor 24/7 to protect your website from any security threats. In addition to this, our hosting management services offer server-side e-mail support, daily backing up of data, constant monitoring of server health, value added domain configuration and email services.

Our hosting packages are bundled, designed to suit our client’s needs, rather than one size fits all.
