Managed Hosting Services

Keeping a web system up and secure 24/7 requires solid technical processes and the right combination of hardware and software.

When your business is at stake, some things that you may normally never hear about become critical - little things like quality equipment, redundant hard drives, server performance tuning, monitoring of all systems, security updates, scheduled maintenance and daily data backup.

Unless your host provides these services, your E-Business system is living on borrowed time. We provide them as a matter of course, both on our virtual and dedicated servers.

Proven Reliability

Snap Design software engineers have been designing and programming database-driven Web Systems since 1995. This is an important factor in the reliability of our technical solutions. All our work is guaranteed.

By using best of breed software, including Windows .NET Server 2003, iPlanet (Sun/Netscape Alliance) Webserver, Cold Fusion MX Server, MDaemon E-Mail/Messaging, and Microsoft SQL Server 2000, we lay the groundwork for the interactivity that will bring your site alive and deliver results.

Accountability and Customer Service
As a host, we are motivated to deliver a high standard of service. Our applications and your reputation is at stake. Massive, discount "server farms," handling tens of thousands of accounts, are unable to provide the personal service or attention required to ensure maximum uptime for you.

Single Supplier
At Snap Design, you will never be caught between two suppliers (i.e. your web developer and your web host). In the event of any questions or problems that arise as your system grows, you'll have a single point of contact. Unlike server farms, where the phone is answered by a different person every time, you'll have the same reliable team looking after your best interests - day in, day out.

Direct Connection to the Internet Backbone

Our Internet pipeline is connected directly to the world's largest Internet backbone.

  • Unlike ISP connections and server farms who boast of high speed capacity but neglect to mention that their lines are over-utilized, crowded and slow, our lines are kept well clear with at least 50% headroom to handle your most important traffic.
  • Unlike backwater connections that must navigate a maze of smaller networks before finally reaching the Internet backbone, your web system will be one jump away from the world's primary fiber network, reaching across North America, bridging the Atlantic to an extensive high-speed fiber network throughout Europe, and across the Pacific to the Far East and Australia.

What this means to you is significantly improved connection speed, reduced latency, reduced packet loss, and increased data throughput.

Your audience will perceive your web presence to be faster and more responsive.

Independently Monitored Reliability

In order to ensure that we are providing proven, reliable, high-speed service to our clients and to be immediately notified of any down time, Snap Design has its access independently monitored 24 hours per day, 7 days a week, through two different networks. Access to our servers from these networks is measured across the Internet backbone.

Security

Our servers are physically secured and monitored on a 24 hour basis.

Internet security has always been a high priority at Snap Design. Not even the FBI can guarantee total security on a server that's intentional offered to public access over the Internet. However, like law-enforcement agencies, Snap Design has ongoing and parallel security systems in place to maximize your protection.

Our selection of operating system and server software has also been a strong contributing factor in protecting our clients' systems from corruption by recent global attacks.

Web Traffic Reports

Detailed, yet easy to read web traffic reports are available within a password-protected area of your web site. Colourful charts and graphs illuminate key information, including: number of Hits, Page Views, User Sessions - by day, week, month, where visitors are coming from (city, province, country), what sent them to your site (Search Engines, including search phrases used), which pages are used the most, the least, and much more.

This valuable information helps you measure your web site's performance and optimize it for usefulness and relevance to your user base.

Contact Snap Design for the professional hosting solution that's right for you.
