Web hosting and domains
in Sheffield.
A clearer home for your website and domain.
Service scope
What we can plan with you
Bring domain ownership, DNS, hosting and renewals into a clear arrangement. Plan website moves alongside email records to avoid disrupting other services using the domain.
Website migration
Assess the website platform, files, database and application requirements. Plan a transfer and acceptance checks with the people responsible for the website itself.
Ongoing responsibilities
Clarify hosting support, backups, certificates and software maintenance. Hosting a website does not automatically include changing its content or maintaining every plugin.
Choosing the right approach
Start with the requirement.
Then choose the setup.
Choose hosting against the website platform and maintenance needs. A simple static site and a database-backed application have different requirements. Keep control of your domain credentials even when several providers work on the site.

Fit the service to the way your team works.
For a Sheffield business with office IT alongside workshop, warehouse or specialist equipment, start by drawing the boundaries. Not every connected device can be patched in the same way, and changes should account for supplier responsibilities and operational downtime.
Your web hosting & domains brief should account for how people work, the systems they depend on and any changes you are planning. The points below help connect those requirements to the wider environment.
Mixed equipment
Inventory specialist devices and identify the vendors responsible for them. Discuss network separation and safe maintenance windows before changing switches, wireless or security settings.
Service planning: Confirm domain ownership and registrar access.
Recovery priorities
Document which systems depend on local hardware and which can be recovered in the cloud. Agree recovery priorities and test restore procedures rather than treating a successful backup job as the whole plan.
Before making changes: Document the platform, database and email-related DNS records.

Questions, answered
