Netcetera Named Fastest Web Host

Another great month has been had by all of Netcetera’s clients. Netcetera is the #1 out again out of all the UK’s top ISP’s monitored by Webperf, the Monitoring Service Company. Since the start of 2016 Netcetera has regularly been in or around the top spot for speed of hosting and reliability of service and this high standard has been maintained right throughout the year with another month at the top of the Webperf rankings for November.

As we’ve mentioned before, Webperf calculates the transferring rate against time. This measures the speed of our datacentre. Since October 1998 Webperf has been the UK’s only independent ISP performance benchmark. Testing any willing ISP’s for performance and reliability 24/7. Unlike some ISP’s we are more than happy to have external monitoring as it clearly demonstrates just how fast and reliable our hosting is. Just take a look…

As we come to the end of the year, we’ve decided to end with some amazing deals on hosting, managed cloud, and dedicated servers, so with so many great deals around there has never been a better time to find out how one of the UK’s most reliable hosting provider can transform your business.

Changing over to super fast Carbon Zero hosting is so easy to do. So if you want excellent technical support, unbeatable pricing and industry leading reliability there’s only one place to look.

7 Questions to ask yourself before you choose your new Host – Network

Part 5: Network and Connectivity

Following on from the Introduction, Longevity and History, Support and last weeks thoughts on Hardware, now it’s time to look at the Network that your website is running over.

Similar to the type of hardware your website is sitting on, the network it’s connected to is probably even more critical to the performance of your site!

Take a close look at their network, make sure they have an infrastructure that is very stable and offers consistently good speed, check on line independent test sites like Webperf and Netcraft . You need to find out what kind of SLAs (Service Level Agreements) and network up-time guarantees they offer, and what will happen in case of a mishap, and do they have a status page so you can see the uptime?

Think about it; If you have the world’s fastest web server, but the network the server is connected to is very slow, your website is going to appear slow to your visitors and potential clients, since they have to go through the datacentre’s network in order to access the servers your site is on.

In addition to a fast network, your web host should have active security measures in place to be able to handle attacks such as DDOS, and have multiple routes to the internet in the event one goes down. This will ensure your site doesn’t go down with it.

Netcetera Operates N+1 across our business this covers our connectivity, cooling and our power. This means that we have primary and backup to all essential systems including our power generators that run the datacentre in the event of a long term power cut.
