How long is my web hosting for?
24 months is our standard contract and this covers you for the life of you domain name. Unlike many budget web design companies we will not hold your domain name to ransom if you choose to leave after that period.
What is bandwidth & webspace, what does it mean to me?
Bandwidth is the amount of visitors at a time that your website can have, people downloading from your website will also use up bandwidth. With 3 Gigabytes of bandwidth you have ample room for most 4-6 page websites. If you are experiencing more demand from the effort you have put in promoting your website through things like mail shots, your business cards and other stationary containing your URL (website address) this extra bit of space should help your website stay speedy and cope with the demand.
Web space is how much you can store on your hosting. Imagine a house. You can only fit so much furniture and belonging into it. Web space works in the same way. If your website has a lot of photos on it or a lot of pages the bigger the web space needs to be. 250 megabyte is ideal for 4-6 page. It will also easily cope with 10 pages or a larger gallery or portfolio.
What else do I get?
Free FTP Account : With a free FTP account you can upload and download photos, music, videos or anything you choose to and from your web space. You may just want to securely store files away from your own hard drive, this acts as a great way of backing up important files. The other major benefit is that you can edit your pages free of charge with any new information you may have.
More Email Accounts: You get more email accounts in this package. An extra five allowing you to have more people in your business with email addresses or more departments such as “sales@ or support@” this allows you to make your business look bigger or gives you a uniformed professional look for any employees.
With every web design we do, we give you a free .co.uk domain name. By having a .co.uk domain name it allows you to give your website an easy to remember and search engine friendly domain name. Being based in the UK, search engines such as Google take this into consideration when indexing, so the better your chances are of being indexed higher. Also it is much more professional to have a www.yourdomain.co.uk domain name than it is to have something like this www.bigcompanywebsite.yourdomain.co.uk which does not fill potential customers with trust in your business. With your own .co.uk domain name your business can have its own online uniform along side your @yourdomain.co.uk email address.
Why is it important to have a @yourdomain.co.uk email address rather than @yahoo/gmail/hotmail.com?
Well think about the last time you received an email from somebody from Nigeria claiming to have millions in the bank that he wants to share with you, if only you can help him out. This is better known as the 419 Nigerian fraud and are now a common daily experience for many a junk mail folder. Why is this relevant to your business? Well that is simple, as we are more aware of what these emails are, we also are more aware that they usually come from a free email account such as Yahoo or Gmail (Google). Because of the connotations with free email accounts it goes without saying that it does the opposite to making your business look professional and trustworthy. Anyone can rip somebody off with a free email account, there is more accountability associated with one linked to your domain name.
