New Office

We now have a new location in Cheltenham! It’s all on the same switchboard so there are no new numbers, but it does mean we’re very conveniently situated with regards to hosting services and anything needing lots of cost-effective bandwidth. (And it means you can come and see us without entering Wales!)

Load Balancing Phase II

We’re now starting to move services onto our new load-balanced platform. In particular, for WordPress sites using SuperCache you can expect to see a x10 speed increase in terms of page delivery.
