HostUpon Gets Another Hosting Award
I’m proud to announce that HostUpon has received yet another hosting award!
The folks at Top10HostingReviews.org have awarded HostUpon the Best Web Hosting Provider award. The award was based on our uptime, in-house support, 24-7 ticket support with a 15min or less response time and our shared hosting plans.
It’s always great to be recognized by our peers in the industry. One of our biggest advantages to many of our competitors is the fact that we have in-house staff and support. We do not outsource at all specifically because we find that in-house support is crucial in the hosting industry. Having someone to speak with that actually works directly in the office is a huge benefit for our customers.
Not only do we try to improve our current internal infrastructure but we also try to add new services which will enhance our user experience. Within two weeks we will be launching Hourly Backups. This new service will be available to new and existing customers and for a small fee we will entirely backup every aspect of your website EVERY hour. This means if you edited a webpage at 10am and it’s 11am we can simply restore the file from 10am within minutes. The process is seamless and gives you the peace of mind that your website is backed-up every single hour of every single day. Our backups will be made on a remote server in a different data center than where your website is hosted for optimal redundancy.
At HostUpon we try our best to make our customers happy, secure and online each and every day. We are constantly improving our service from the brand name servers we utilize to the experienced staff members we bring on to our team. It feels good to be recognized and we hope you all give us a try as we truly will be your one and only hosting provider.
