Happy Bank Holiday!

Friday, August 28th, 2009

I’m sure that, like us, you’re looking forward to the last bank holiday of the summer this weekend and we just wanted to remind you of our fantastic 50% off web hosting, 50% off SSL certificates and 25% off web design offers that will be ending very soon.

Take advantage today using the promotional code ’summer’.

Our office will be closed on Bank Holiday Monday (31st August) for telephone support but you can still e-mail us or use our ticketing system for fast support when you need it.

Important Security Update

Tuesday, August 25th, 2009

A flaw was recently found in the CentOS 4/5 Kernel that allowed local privilege escalation. An update was released yesterday so we are planning on doing upgrades and the reboots needed for the changes to take effect starting this evening at 10pm.

Although each server will be unavailable for a very short period during the reboot (usually no more than a couple of minutes), there should be little or no impact to services.

.info domains now just £2.49!From now and for the rest of 2009, you can register your .info domain with simpledomainnames.co.uk for just £2.49 – a HUGE saving off the normal price of £9.99.

The .info generic top-level domain was introduced in 2001 and has since grown to be one of the most widely used TLDs on the Internet. .info domains, as the extension would suggest, tend to be used mainly for websites where the primary goal is to provide information. You’ll find everything from travel information sites to government sites.

Find out more and get your .info today with simpledomainnames.co.uk

server2.simplewebserver.co.uk now server11.simplewebserver.co.uk

Sunday, August 23rd, 2009

We’re pleased to announce that the migration of web hosting accounts from server2.simplewebserver.co.uk to server11.simplewebserver.co.uk is now complete.

There were no complications and all data has been copied without fail. The new server is working very well (much, much better than the old one!) and you should already be noticing pages loading quicker.

Of course, if you come across any issues, please contact us.

server2.simplewebserver.co.uk maintenance

Thursday, August 20th, 2009

Over the next few weeks we will be bulk moving hosting accounts from server2.simplewebserver.co.uk to a brand new, larger, more powerful machine.

server2.simplewebserver.co.uk is reaching its end of life and to provide the best service to our web hosting customers, we’ll be moving websites and associated services overnight to ensure the absolute minimum downtime – the vast majority of customers should not notice any downtime at all.

This should not adversly affect services unless you are using the server’s IP address or hostname instead of your own domain name. You should check this ASAP.

If you have any questions or concerns about the move, please contact us.
