Uptime & Reliability

Good reliable hosting for most types of sites

first2host.co.uk offers technical support and domain management.  They have a live dedicated team that will help you solve an issue within minutes. They offer service monitoring and performance control. Most hosting provider’s only use phone calls for questions and concerns.  first2host.co.uk web services also has a resource center full of tutorials and a frequently asked questions center to help you troubleshoot through any technical issues you may have. Their servers are on a high speed network and are up and running  24 hours a day, 7 days a week. first2host.co.uk also has a customer community forum with advanced Cpanle guide where you can communicate with other members and learn new things about VPS servers.

I like recommending a hosting provider that offers more than one way to resolve technical issues. First2host.co.uk only offers a phone number on their website along with support tickets. Talking to a live person is important when it comes to trouble shooting an error. However, they do provide fast internet connection speeds on a secure network . They have a dedicated server which ensures accelerated speeds and less to no downtime involved.
