Downtime for your website can be costly whatever business you are in. Finding a web hosting provider that you can rely on will strengthen your long-term business proposition.

With a names.co.uk web hosting package, the possibility of downtime is minimised thanks to the way our Cloud platform is built: the strong network and infrastructure, clustered array of servers and years of expertise work together to provide a stable environment.

Rather than host your website on a single server, we use multiple servers in a clustered formation so that if one server goes down, there are many other servers to take over. This means that there is no loss of service to your website and performance won't be affected.

This also means that should your website performance peak, you can draw on powerful resources to keep your site online. The extra servers will balance the load so that your website's performance won't be affected. Of course, we ask you to work within our fair usage policy, but our Cloud platform offers you the flexibility to grow.

We house our servers in fully redundant, secure data centres and have our own team of experts monitoring them around the clock to ensure optimum performance.

We don't rely on third parties for support or second tier networks for connectivity; we also own our own IP Transit and peer with multiple partners, so that we can deliver fast, dependable, online services to all our customers.

Our in-house developers and system administrators work hard to ensure our Cloud platform is updated with the very latest security patches, as well as hardware and software enhancements.

They also manage our 1-Click Installs, making sure you have the latest web apps such as WordPress and Joomla available in your Online Control Panel.

For you and your business there's nothing complicated about managing your web hosting account.

You can fully manage your hosting, email, domain name and other services from your secure Online Control Panel. We make sure everything runs smoothly and your website is online, all the time. Find out more
