hosting

There is no point in having a website if the server is down!

Quality UK-based Hosting
We take the hosting of our client's websites and email very seriously!

All our hosting is on servers in a London-based data centre with whom we have worked for over 10 years - all servers are monitored 24hrs a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year with nightly backups.

Where clients have very specific requirements and/or their website receives very high traffic levels we can provide dedicated servers that can handle any level of traffic thrown at them.

All clients have access to a secure control panel (see screenshot on right) that allows them to control all aspects of hosting and email directly.

Domain Names
We can register any domain names you require with any of the hundreds of domain extensions available world-wide. Just email us your requirements and we can check availability and cost for you.

If you would like to find out how we could help with your hosting or domain name requirements please contact us for a no-obligation meeting.

.uk domains
All .uk domain names we register for our clients (e.g. .co.uk, .org.uk) are provided on the basis that you accept the terms and conditions of Nominet (the national registry for .uk domains names). These terms and conditions can be found here.

Our UK Domains Service levels and conditions

Real Time Audio is a registrar of Nominet, who are the internet registry for all .uk domain names.

You can view full details about Nominet on their website and view the full .UK terms and conditions here.

By confirming a domain name order with Real Time Audio you are accepting both the terms and conditions set by Real Time Audio and Nominet.

Real Time Audio offers the service of registering and managing your domains  on your behalf (the registrant) including renewals, updates and maintenance under the tag RTA.

All domains ending with .uk (including .co.uk, .org.uk etc.) are charged at £15 + VAT for a 2 year registration period for each domain and after that for each renewal period.

We do not charge for transferring an existing domain name over the Real Time Audio Nominet TAG but there will be a charge for the change of Registrant name as per Nominets terms.

Real Time Audio will confirm all company and registrant details with you prior to registering your domain.
Once registered it will be your responsibility to advise us of any changes to these details.
