Web hosting advice

Vendor-neutral web hosting advice matches hosting to your requirements, budget and data protection needs. Undersized hosting slows a site down, oversized hosting wastes money.

Hosting models

  • Shared hosting: low cost, for simple websites with little load

  • Virtual or dedicated server: more performance and control, more upkeep

  • Managed hosting: the provider or we handle updates, backups and monitoring

  • Cloud: scales flexibly, for strongly fluctuating load

Who handles updates, backups and incidents matters more than the model, and is agreed in writing from the outset.

Selection criteria

  • EU data centres and a data processing agreement

  • current PHP versions, SSH and Git access for deployments

  • backups, restore and their costs

  • availability and quality of support

  • room to upgrade as needs grow

  • transparent costs without hidden fees

Approach

We first clarify requirements, load, data protection and budget, then recommend a model and suitable providers.

We can also handle the migration, including set-up, data transfer, DNS switch and testing, without downtime or data loss.
