Web Hosting

Frequently Asked Questions

• What is Web Hosting??

  Web hosting is your little piece of the internet. Whether you use it to host your website, emails, online application, or a combination of the three, web hosting is an allocation of storage space which you can use to bring your online business presence to life. Under the hood, web hosting is a portion of storage space on a physical server, located in a data centre somewhere around the world. We like to keep our servers close, so Crucial’s own data centre is located right here in Sydney, ensuring optimal load times for our Australian clients and consumers.

  Web hosting is a packaged product, made up of a range of different technical resources which provide speed, space and power to your website or application. Your web hosting plan will come with an allocation of CPU, memory, bandwidth and storage space, which are all necessary server-side resources for running any web-based service. Our web hosting servers are guarded by world-class redundancy and DDOS protection systems, ensuring your business stays online and secure against a range of external attack methods.

  Perhaps best of all, Crucial web hosting is maintained around the clock by a team of talented industry experts with decades of combined experience. Rest easy knowing a friendly, highly-trained web hosting professional is only ever a call or an email away.\
