What web hosting services are available?
Reseller Hosting

You can sell the web hosting without having to mention SIRSTEVEHQ. You can customise your customers’ control panel and all URLs and messaging to match your brand. Or if you’d prefer, you can use our white-label ‘sirstevemedia.com’ brand name.
You can offer your customers a choice of packages, or tailor each package to every customer. With over 30 different features to add or remove from packages, you can offer lots of options and upgrade opportunities.

VPS
Our high performance SSD VPS allows you to run whatever you want. It’s the same as having your own dedicated server in a data centre, without the hassle of visiting that data centre! We maintain all the hardware.
We use the latest 12-core Intel Xeon processors in Dell servers, with blazing-fast DDR4 RAM and Samsung enterprise SSDs. You have the choice of 6 different sizes of VPS, from 1 core to 10 cores, with corresponding tiers of memory and storage. They’re suitable for many other uses: website hosting, file storage, development, gaming – it’s up to you.
When you order a SIRSTEVEHQ VPS, you’ll first need to choose performance specs. Then, you can choose which operating system, and which applications you’d like to be installed straight away.
You’ll then be shown a final price, including the cost for any commercial software licences, if you’ve chosen any. Then, in less than a minute, your SIRSTEVEHQ VPS will be up and ready for you to run. You can cancel or upgrade at any time.
Autoscale
The autoscale service facilitates high performance, even under high traffic loads, thanks to our autoscaling technology. This should enable the platform to adapt effortlessly to any traffic or resource demand spikes. This, combined with our high-frequency CPUs
With our autoscale platform, there is no single point of failure. Our intelligent load balancing, automatic failover, and fully redundant web, database, and mail servers enable us to deliver maximum performance around the clock. These high-frequency compute nodes run at speeds of up to 4.20 HGz for a much quicker load and processing times.
Timeline Backups are included, allowing you to access automatically rolling backups from the last 30 days so that you can rest with ease.
All the features you have come to expect and love from our shared hosting service are also bundled into Autoscale, creating the ultimate shared hosting solution.
