We have an independent

Most companies order these monitoring reports - but won't show them to you!

At The Web Site Hosting Company UK, we pride ourselves on the performance of our systems.

We have multiply redundant OC-12 connections direct to the backbone of the internet. Each of these connections is 12 times faster than the T1 connections that many hosting companies use and 350 times as fast as ISDN! The 'multiply redundant' connections mean that even if one link fails, your site is still visible.

Why trust your site to a company that offers 99% reliability - that would mean that your site could be inaccessible for nearly 8 hours every month!

Your username and
password will be sent to
you less than 2 minutes
after you order!

Expect to wait 2-5 days with other companies

We know that once you've decided on your domain name and chosen a hosting company, you'll be keen to get started right away!

Our processing system will have your account set up within a couple of minutes of your order and will send your username and password to you via e-mail immediately.

Your domain name is ordered electronically at the same time - and most new names are ready in about 4 hours.

A VAT receipt will be sent to you electronically with your order confirmation.

It's nothing more than good business sense that we want you to be happy with our service - that's why we keep our customers and get plently of business from referrals... click here to see what our customers say.

Others leave you sitting in a telephone queue for support or ignore your emails. You'll just have to imagine what their customers say to them!

It's one of the curses of the web hosting industries... many companies are happy to take your money - but not so fast at making sure that you are happy with the service!

This simply doesn't make good business sense apart from anything else... We want you to be just as happy with us in a year's time when your hosting facilities are due for renewal. The proof of this philosophy is that we retain a (much) higher ratio of our customers than almost any other hosting company in the business.

Part of good support is also making sure that our systems are easy to use and understand in the first place - after all, if you have to ask for help, in some ways we've already failed.

We aim to respond to your queries within 4 hours (business hours) - most are dealt with much faster. Almost all issues are dealt with at that first response. Out of hours, our service technicians monitor our support service 24 hours a day - even at the weekend - and will always try to help with your questions.

There are no 'little extras' to pay for - our standard hosting account includes everything you'll need for your site. E-mail, web statistics, your own online control-panel and compatibility with Microsoft Frontpage if you need it.

Most companies present you with an extra list of charges for things that really should be included for free.

We've designed our standard package in a way that means you won't end up having to pay for those 'little extras'. We include everything that you need to get your site up and running as part of the standard package - even a free domain name. Beware of other companies offering free domain names: When we say free, we mean exactly that - we pay your domain registry fees as well - and the domain name is yours to keep. Forever.

CGI-BIN access is included, as is Telnet/Shell, Perl and the Microsoft Frontpage server extensions. All e-mail sent to your domain is forwarded to you instantly - or can be collected when you like

As your business grows, you might need secure server access to take credit cards, or an online database system, or even a fully automated sales system - whatever your need, we'll make sure that we're able to deliver a quality solution... now and in the future.

We're proud of the service we offer - and we're just as proud that our customers have chosen to use our services.

The Web Site Hosting Company UK has been hosting quality sites for 3 years. We are full members of Nominet UK and business partners with Network Solutions (the UK and US domain name registries).

We started out as customers ourselves - and just couldn't find a level of service that we thought was acceptable, never mind good. We set our standards high, and hope that we can exceed your expectations.

We employ staff who understand your business needs - and will provide useful advice whether you're web-wizard, or new to the internet. We don't employ tecchies or geeks!
