Netcetera launches new Global Cloud Hosting in 43 locations worldwide

Choosing a Cloud Server is never going to be an easy decision to make. Not only do you have to consider the cost but there are so many other key points that need to be considered prior to deciding on what the best option is for your business. One of which is where your Cloud is located.
Netcetera is one of Europe’s leading cloud hosting companies and we can now provide a Cloud Hosting solution that spans 43 locations around the world 17 more than Azure and 8 more than AWS, giving businesses who want to use a cloud based server one of the largest global platforms available.

We understand that clients who demand leading cloud performance and high availability for their applications want to locate these applications close to their operational base with the added benefits of an improved end user experience through low latency and fault tolerance. Another added benefit is having a truly scalable on demand server to cope with the demands of any business.

Driven by the global economy and new markets Netcetera has dramatically increased its global presence to help customers and partners meet their own objectives of providing applications close to their user base. Very simply you will now be able to choose your locations and still only have to deal with one supplier regardless of where you need to be based.


Another benefit of choosing to host with Netcetera is to mitigate against the risk of downtime or a complete IT systems failure. Although rare, failures can occur that affect the availability of instances that are in the same location. Netcetera can now help you mitigate this risk through offering multiple site locations across the globe for your cloud servers.

The benefits of choosing to host with Netcetera are considerable:

  • Truly global locations

  • Improved end user experience – increase sales and productivity
  • Unrivaled backup and recovery

Netcetera ranked in the top 10 most reliable hosting companies.

We are  thrilled to announce that Netcetera is once again ranked in the top 10 the most reliable hosting  companies for May, as ranked by Netcraft

Netcraft May 2015

Netcetera offer an SLA-backed 99.9% uptime guarantee on its services, and exceeds this promise on its own site, with an uptime of 99.98% over the previous year and 99.96% over ten years. The company offers dedicated, managed and colocation solutions based from a Datacentre on the Isle of Man. Amongst other features, the Datacentre is carbon neutral, achieved via a combination of  offsetting and energy-saving technologies.

From a customer’s perspective, the percentage of failed requests is very important and for this reason to give a clear indication of reliability of routing, the ranking is measured by a table of fewest failed requests, rather than periods of outage.

Netcraft measures and makes available the response times of approximately forty leading Hosting providers sites. The performance measurements are calculated at fifteen minute intervals from different points around the internet, and averages are calculated over the immediately preceding 24 hour period.

Netcetera was formed in 1996 and today is one of Europe’s leading Web Hosting service providers, offering a full range of products, from a basic hosting service catering to individuals who need to host a single website, to large companies who require more complicated setups using, for example a Cloud Server or a Dedicated Server. Whatever your Hosting requirements, our range of Managed hosting options will provide you with a solution, and our UK based Hosting packages can help create a professional backbone for your online business.

10 Ways to Speed Up Your Website

Google recently announced that they were going to start considering site speed as a search engine ranking factor.

Google Webmaster’s Official Blog states: “Like us, our users place a lot of value in speed – that’s why we’ve decided to take site speed into account in our search rankings.”

That is the second most important reason to have a fast website. The top reason is showing your visitors the information they want fast so they don’t leave your website.

These are 10 things you can do to speed up your site.

  1. Use External CSS and Script Files
    Don’t include CSS or JavaScript code in your HTML documents. Create separate files and call out to them when necessary.
  2. Use DIVs for Layout
    Avoid using tables.
  3. More Is Less
    Remove elements you don’t really need.
  4. Optimize Your Images
    Use this software to reduce the size of your images.
  5. Don’t Use Images to Display Text
    With CSS styles you can make text look pretty much any way you want.
  6. Use Clean Code
    Get rid of unnecessary code.
  7. Use Trailing Slashes When Linking to Directories
    If you have your blog in a folder called “blog”, link to www.yoursite.co.uk/blog/ (with a trailing slash at the end) as opposed to www.yoursite.co.uk/blog.
  8. Use the Height and Width Tags
    Don’t forget to use these tags for images and other elements.
  9. Avoid the Excessive Use of Flash
    Flash animations can really slow your website down; avoid them if possible.
  10. Choose your web host carefully
    If you are a UK based business then it is crucial to have a UK based Web Host with verifiable performance and availability measurements.
