Shared Web Hosting

For many people, shared hosting fits the bill perfectly. It offers great value for money and offers all the features, functionality and performance the vast majority of websites require. But sometimes our customers' needs go beyond what the basic, advanced or business shared hosting packages can offer. In addition to offering what has to be one of the very best uptime guarantees, we feature a wide array of additional benefits that appeal to all clients.

Reseller Web Hosting

Our reseller hosting plan essentially gives you the ability to create shared hosting accounts for your own use or your clients. You may choose this if you require more domains on your account than our business hosting package allows or for those who wish to resell hosting to their own customers and supply full control panel access too! Offering all of the excellent benefits our services provide, without the added expense of certain hosting solutions.

Virtual Private Servers (VPS)

If you need more control your hosting environment or if your site becomes so busy that you need to take the next step up from shared hosting, than Virtual Private Servers or VPS or an ideal intermediate step without the outlay of a dedicated server. You have full root access allowing complete control of all software and settings but with the support of our team to help when you need it, maintaining the flexibility and power you demand.

Yes, all our hosting accounts come with unlimited email addresses/mailboxes as standard. We also provide an outgoing mail (SMTP) server for your own use.

In order to create new email addresses/mailboxes you must log in to your hosting control panel (cPanel or Plesk) and click the appropriate button. Providing you with an easy, instant way to add or remove singular or multiple email addresses or mailbox accounts whenever you require, for more information, see here.

Here at UKHost4U we take our work seriously and value the fact that for any client, time is money. We operate within strict time scales to ensure that your transition runs as smoothly as possible, often without you even noticing the changeover. All new hosting accounts will be created within 24 hours, usually within a couple of hours. VPS accounts may take longer depending on the configuration of the server but we will keep you informed throughout all stages of the order.

Most of our website hosting plans come with a choice of Linux or Windows operating systems and many customers are confused as to which is the best option. However, the decision can be quite simple by considering the following questions.

1. Do you require the ability to run ASP/ASP.net scripts (hint: such scripts often have the file extensions .asp or .aspx)?
2. Do you require MS SQL database support?
3. Do you require any other Windows only technology?
4. Do you prefer to use a Plesk control panel to manage your hosting account?

If you answer yes to any of the above then Windows hosting is the option for you but otherwise you may find our Linux web hosting plans easier to manage, maintain and of course cheaper!

Web hosting service is an Internet service that allows websites to be accessible via the World Wide Web 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Web hosting gives you space on a server for your own use along with high speed Internet connectivity in a secure, managed data centre. While you may create your site on your local computer, you need to host it continuously somewhere online so that everyone anyone can visit and navigate it.

All our shared hosting accounts come with either cPanel or Plesk industry-standard control panels, which enable you to manage your account online with ease. In the busy world of web marketing, where continual changes may often need to be implemented to websites of particular genres, it is important for a company to be able to make certain changes whenever and wherever they wish. We also offer support for certain functions that cannot be done via cPanel or Plesk via email, telephone or our ticket system.

The subject of adult material on websites within the UK is one that is carefully scrutinised, in many ways to protect against the misuse of certain material. In many instances hosting providers will not host adult content based websites of any kind in order to prevent any websites trying to promote illegal subgenres. Yes we do allow adult content, however only that adheres to strictly enforced UK laws. After all, we work to ensure a fair practice and condone any matter deemed abusive or degrading.
