Website Hosting

Web hosting is probably the most misunderstood internet service. Web hosting is simply you paying a company to store your website on their servers and have them manage the access  and security of your website.

Once your website is hosted, you then have to "point" your domain name at the webhosts servers.

We don't physically host websites ourselves. Web hosting is a specialised service and we like to leave that portion of things to the professionals. Discountasp.net is the web host we use. They are constantly on top of the latest Microsoft ® technology, have an excellent help centre and knowledge base, superb security, an addon base for your hosting (you can start with just webhosting and add a database, upgrade or increase your bandwidth at any time) and a great management console.

Hosting with discountasp.net is setup by ourselves in the course of your website build. We will provide you with the login details once the site is up and running as part of your handover package.
