Questions
& Answers
Why
choose a UK based server?
UK hosting ensures that sites and pages
viewed in the UK open at quickest possible
speed.
Why
Linux?.
Unlike Windows which is owned by Microsoft,
Linux is an Open Source system, which means
it isn’t copyrighted, and is free
to be used, modified and developed by anyone
at no cost. This makes Linux a constantly
evolving, improving system, perfect for
the changes and demands of web technology.
As
Linux is a public product, it enables us
to offer much more competitive hosting fees.
Linux
also supports other Open Source web programmes,
scripts and software such as galleries,
shopping carts, community portals, blogs,
forums, chat rooms etc… many of which
you can access from your Diverse Designs
Control Panel.
