A virtual private server (VPS) is a virtual machine that runs its own copy of an operating system (in this case, Linux) with root access. Each virtual server is completely private from other virtual servers and they function the same as a regular dedicated server. This means you can do more online without the slow-downs of a shared server or the cost of a dedicated server. Because it’s cloud-based you get the flexibility to easily add features and grow your resources on demand.
Because we both own and operate our own VPS infrastructure, including our Maidenhead, London, datacentre, we’re equipped to offer a high standard of service. We have the control, and that means you get better service all around. More featured, more support, more reliability. If you’re considering moving to a VPS solution for your website, our NVMe SSD drives, and KVM virtualisation technology is exactly what you need to get the best performance out of your platform.
Take control of your project with VPS plans that provide enterprise-grade features at an affordable price.
cPanel & WHM is the industry leading control panel of choice amongst many hosting providers.

Upon ordering your VPS plan simply select the number of cPanel accounts you want to license and our automated provisioning system will install cPanel for you. cPanel takes the pain out of running a server. It includes automatic updates and has an intuitive control panel that is packed with fantastic features.
DirectAdmin is web hosting control panel software, similar to cPanel, that lets you administer your web site and hosting options using a graphical, web-based interface. You can manage an unlimited number of websites, email accounts, etc. using a DirectAdmin control panel. DirectAdmin automates tasks so that web servers can be easily shared and give web site owners a way to quickly set-up and manage web sites.
