Security and Updates

Why Website Security Matters

In today’s online world, security is more important than ever. A secure website protects your business, your customers, and your reputation. It’s not just about preventing hacking attempts—it’s about ensuring your site runs smoothly and stays accessible for your audience.

That’s why I take a proactive approach to keeping every website I host safe, secure, and up-to-date. Here’s how I manage your site’s security and updates behind the scenes.

Regular Updates for Reliable Performance

Web hosting isn’t a “set it and forget it” process. To minimise vulnerabilities and keep everything running smoothly, I ensure that:

• The Latest Software Is Used: I use long-term support (LTS) versions of server software, ensuring your site benefits from the most stable and secure updates available.
• Updates Are Applied Regularly: From the server’s operating system to the database and supporting software, I make sure everything is kept current to reduce the risk of issues.
• Proactive Monitoring: I monitor servers 24/7. If a service goes offline for any reason, it’s automatically restarted or resolved before it impacts your website.

Built-In Security Measures

Your website hosting comes with comprehensive security measures to protect against online threats. These include:

• SSL Certificates as Standard: SSL encrypts data to keep sensitive information secure and build trust with your visitors. It’s included in all my hosting plans—no extra charges or hidden costs.
• Firewalls and Protections: While I won’t bore you with the technical details, I use robust firewalls and other security measures to safeguard your site from attacks.

Personal Support and Peace of Mind

One of the key benefits of working with me is that I handle everything myself. From provisioning the server to building and hosting your website, I know every detail of your setup. This means:

• You have one point of contact for all questions or concerns.
• There’s no waiting in long queues or explaining your project to a stranger—I’m here to help.
• You can feel confident knowing that your website is in the hands of someone who understands it inside and out.

Security Is an Ongoing Process

Good website security doesn’t just happen once—it requires regular attention. By continuously monitoring, updating, and maintaining your hosting, I ensure your site stays secure as your business grows and evolves.

For added peace of mind, I also offer a managed backup strategy, with daily offsite backups to keep your data safe no matter what.
