Website Hosting
Most web design companies use a third party to provide hosting services to them. Technicks is different because we have made a substantial investment in our own internet infrastructure. We did this originally because the service contracts of third party hosting supplies were insufficient and over time we found them to be unreliable. By doing it ourselves we know what the problems are when they occur and how to fix them quickly. For us, relying on a third party provider for this essential service is too much of a risk.
We provide web design services to some of the most important brands in the UK. They rely on us to uphold their name online. If their web site breaks down and becomes unavailable this degrades their brand. It is a responsibility we take very seriously.
