Dedicated Hosting

Our dedicated packages offer a full server not shared with any other clients and are fully managed and monitored by Orchard Hosting.

Dedicated hosting packages are advisable to:

  • clients with websites requiring more power and resources than a shared or reseller package can offer;
  • clients wishing to customise their hosting environment;
  • clients wishing to provide their own reseller packages;
  • clients who do not wish to be hosted from the same base as other clients.
