We're pleased to announce that all of our UK Shared Hosting servers have been upgraded, to provide you with even faster web hosting.
Over time, technologies have evolved, and so has our server system storage.
We have gone from traditional hard disk drives (HDD), to solid-state drives (SSD) which are about 5x faster than HDD, and now to NVMe storage, which can be up to 12x faster than SSD.
For your Shared Hosting, this speeds your website up in two ways:
- your website's files and images just generally load faster regardless
- since the servers can load files faster, they can process a queue of all websites' requests faster too, so the queue of tasks that your website visitors cause also are processed faster - so your website loads more swiftly for them.
This has all happened seamlessly and will have noticed zero downtime.
Happy hosting!
