Website Hosting

We offer our clients industry-leading hosting for their websites. Managed by our in-house experts, our fast, secure and stable server is offered at a competitive cost and with great support. We handle management, backups and updates so you don’t have to.

Why choose MicroGraphix Hosting

  • Hosting on a dedicated MicroGraphix server provided by and managed by RackSpace a leading worldwide ISP

  • Server is exclusive to MicroGraphix customers (very low contention ratios)

  • Hosting package includes regular whole site backups

  • Check for/​carry out CMS security updates (minimum monthly)

  • Check for/​carry out browser updates (minimum monthly)

  • Control: The main reason for suggesting our hosting services is that we can control/​monitor what goes on with the server not so much that any other hosting might be inferior. Having said that our server only hosts our clients so it has a very low contention ratio/​load etc.

  • Accountability, if something stops working, fixes may be slower to implement and costs may be incurred. e.g. if we are asked to investigate a problem that turns out to be an issue with a third party we may have to charge for this work.

  • Server updates, from time to time the website server / software may require updates to run as efficiently and as securely as possible. We update the server and software as part of our hosting package. If you choose a third party to host you may incur costs with them to update the server/​software as necessary.

  • Software requirements, the MicroGraphix server is set up to function perfectly with the software we run on it, third party hosting may require adjustments to ensure compatibility/​security.

  • If the current hosting is Windows based it is incompatible with the CMS software we recommend.
