Hosting and Support

At Pedwar, we offer web hosting for £12/month, or if you’d like maintenance and support it’s £50/month. Full details of our hosting plans are available upon request. If you decide to host your website with us, you’ll enjoy the following benefits:

• You get SSL Encryption as standard
  
  When you host with some other companies, you’ll usually need to purchase an SSL certificate in order to get the green padlock next to the address bar in your browser. Our web hosting comes with SSL encryption as standard. This instills trust in your website visitors, and they will be happier to give you their personal information if they feel your website is secure. The connection to your website is encrypted and authenticated using TLS 1.2 (a strong protocol), ECDHE_RSA with P-256 (a strong key exchange), and AES_128_GCM (a strong cipher).
• Fast website access
  Our server uses SSD technology to store your data, meaning each time your website is accessed, the server can pull back the requested data much faster. SSD drives, because of the lack of moving parts are inherently faster. Our AWS servers are fully cloud based and use world class technology to provide excellent relability and uptime.
• Your data is backed up daily
  We know your website and its data is important to you, which is why we back up your website daily. This means that should disaster strike, you can be sure your website can be restored to working condition quickly.
• Your emails are taken care of
  As part of our website hosting service we can set up new email addresses for you for your website’s domain name using a solution such as Google Workspace (formerly G Suite). That means if your website is www.example.com we can set you up with a [email protected], giving you a more professional image in the eyes of your clients or customers.
• Cloudflare protection
  Provided we have the correct access to add DNS records, we route your website visitors through Cloudflare, a world class content delivery network that speeds up your website and protects your website from a variety of attacks.

Maintenance and Support

Many of our clients come to us because of a bad experience with their existing supplier. One of the most common things we hear is "I can't get hold of the company who built my website anymore". They just don't want to know. 

There is often confusion about who looks after what, with the domain name being managed by one company, and the website being hosted by another.

At Pedwar, we look to bring everything under one roof and offer a full maintenance and support package where we manage and look after all aspects of your website for you. In addition to hosting, maintaining and supporting your website, this can also include your domain name and email as well. 

Getting in touch with us is also a breeze. If we can't answer your call straight away, we'll always call you straight back, because great communication is a priority for us. Even long after the website has gone live, you'll be greeted by name in a friendly manner whenever you call us.
