If you're new to having a website, you might want to know that you will need some allocated server space for your website to be hosted. For technical and licensing reasons, we usually insist that your website be hosted with us.
From our point of view it is about providing a follow up service to our customers. If you were to host elsewhere - we would not be able to guarantee long term functionality of the site or take responsibility for uptime of servers or mail services etc. There is also a matter of software licensing, as we do not allow access to our Server Side solutions to third parties without a hefty fee.
We try and keep hosting fees to a minimum, and only increase this if your site uses a lot of bandwidth or particularly large file storage, several databases etc. But we trust that you will find peace of mind knowing that your website is in safe hands.
