Virtualisation is the future... added performance and reduced costs!

Virtualisation is the buzz word at the moment, not just in the Web Hosting world, but also in the desktop and high-end server markets. Many companies are developing virtualisation technologies which will radically change the way we work by improving productivity, whilst also reducing costs. Big players such as Microsoft have already invested huge amounts of money and resources developing virtualisation solutions and many more are set to follow.

Internet users have come to expect dynamic and interactive web sites, often this requires more resource intensive and specialised technology not available to shared web hosting customers. A VPS creates a secure virtual environment on a single physical server maximising the utilisation of the server resources, enabling increased performance and security.

To ensure our customers have the latest technologies available to them, we have partnered with ServerChoice.com a leading specialist virtualisation web hosting provider. Their VPS (Virtual Private Server) solutions offer our customers the next step in shared web hosting. A VPS fills the gap between high-end shared web hosting and full dedicated servers.

A VPS also allows you to host multiple sites from the same physical machine without any additional costs. ServerChoice.com offers three packages, VPS Lite, VPS Plus and VPS Ultra.

Some of the benefits:

  • 30 Day Moneyback Guarantee
  • Reduced cost, host multiple domains without any additional fees
  • Added Performance
  • Complete control with root privileges
  • Freedom and flexibility to install your own software and customised scripts
  • Total isolation from other VPS accounts which may be abusing the server or overusing server resources
  • Dedicated Web, Mail, FTP and Database servers

We received a great response to last month's article regarding the Google AdWords vouchers added to our hosting packages. We would like to thank all of you for your comments and feedback. LCN regularly receives comments and support from customers and we value your views.

For those of you that may have missed it we have decided to include it again.

No matter what your marketing budget is, advertising with Google AdWords™ means you can reach people when they are actively looking for your products and services. That means you receive targeted visitors and customers.

With Google AdWords you create ads and choose keywords, which are words or phrases related to your business. When people search on Google using one of your keywords, your ad may appear next to the search results. People can simply click your ad to make a purchase or learn more about you. It is that easy!

We have added this offer to all hosting packages. Our UN1 and UN2 hosting packages now come with a £20 Google AdWords Voucher and our UN3 Hosting package a £30 Google AdWords Voucher. This offer has been backdated for all UN hosting packages previously purchased.

To use your voucher simply login to the LCN admin section and click on the Redeem Google AdWords Voucher, then follow the online instructions.

The Month of May [top]
 

May is the fifth month of the year in the Gregorian Calendar and one of seven Gregorian months with the length of 31 days.

May begins (historicly) with the sun in the sign of Taurus and ends in the sign of Gemini. Astronomically speaking, the sun begins in the constellation of Aries and ends in the constellation of Taurus.

The month may have been named for the Greek goddess Maia, who was identified with the Roman goddess of fertility, Bona Dea, whose festival was held in May. See:-Months in various calendars

In Japan, there is the so-called May sickness, where new students or workers start to be tired of their new schoolwork or jobs. (In Japan schoolyears and fiscal years start on April 1st).

Other May Facts:

  • Within any calendar year, no other month begins on the same day of the week as May.
  • The bird of May is the nightingale
  • May's birth flower is the lily of the valley or hawthorn.
  • May's birthstone is the emerald.
  • May in the Northern Hemisphere is the seasonal equivalent to November in the Southern Hemisphere and vice versa
