Domain Name / Hosting

Every website owner needs to rent hosting space, just the same as you would rent bricks and mortar for a normal shop. For a fee each year, your web pages sit on a server so its ready for the waiting public when they request your website.

But are so many web hosting companies out there: some are good and some are bad.

So how can you ensure you get the best choice of hosting provider to give your website the best chance?

Even better, How about UK-based hosting?

DVH Design doesn’t just pick the cheapest hosting company there is. For a start, we only use and recommend UK-based hosting companies. Then if something is likely to go wrong, it will get sorted out as quickly and with as minimum frustration. as possible, but it doesn’t stop there: We also opt for:

• Efficiency: Has a fast-acting support service in place and helpful staff who go that extra mile, if needed.
• High uptime: No company can guarantee 100% but the higher the better.
• Versatility: Can handle software platforms for example CMS and eEommerce softwares.
• Affordability: Not necessarily the cheapest, but affordable enough for SMEs.
• Reputation: Has a good reputation and comes recommended.
