Fasthosts Supports Advanced Users with One Month Free on All MS Dedicated Servers

4 August 2008, Gloucester, UK:  Fasthosts Internet Ltd, (www.fasthosts.co.uk ), the UK's number one web hosting company, today launched an appealing offer for advanced users that provides 1 Month Free on all Dedicated Servers with a Microsoft OS purchased before 30 September 2008.  New and existing customers signing up to MS Dedicated Server packages, priced from only £59/month+VAT, will receive their first month free, meaning a saving of up to £209+VAT.   Fasthosts MS Dedicated Servers are unique in combining the latest Intel Core 2 Duo processors with unlimited bandwidth.  The solutions are extremely attractive for users who need to upgrade their dedicated server affordably, or for businesses seeking to reduce investment costs by outsourcing their server solution.  

Fasthosts MS Dedicated Server packages are solutions for hosting data such as websites or business application software. They provide a secure environment for data which is stored on its own dedicated server unit.  Users enjoy the full power of the hardware and dedicated access to bandwidth, as well as root access and independent remote management of the server at all times. 

There is an excellent business case for dedicated servers as they remove the need for costly investment in in-house servers and routers and have excellent scalability.  They often achieve far higher connectivity than in-house servers and save floor space within the user’s environment.

Fasthosts MS Dedicated Servers, priced from £59/month+VAT, are an extremely cost effective choice as they are supplied with unlimited traffic which can be a costly extra and risk factor with many other providers.   Coupled with Fasthosts’ high-speed internet connectivity, via 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) channels, users have peace of mind that there are no limits on the data that they can exchange.  Fasthosts Servers are also guaranteed to be maintained with the latest security and operating system updates. 

Fasthosts' latest range of MS Dedicated Server packages comprises the DS250 (80GB disk space), priced from £59/month+VAT, DS450 (250GB disk space), priced from £79/month+VAT, the DS650 (500GB disk space), priced from £109/month+VAT and the DS850 (1000GB disk space), priced from £199/month+VAT.  With no set up fees and prices comparable to high-end hosting packages, MS Dedicated Servers offer top-spec server technology with minimal upfront investment and a remarkably low total cost of ownership.  Fasthosts’ 1 Month Free offer is the company’s latest move to help demanding users upgrade to the best server technologies affordably and with ease.

Steve Holford, CMO Fasthosts Internet Ltd, said “Our combination of state-of-the-art Intel Core 2 Duo technology and unlimited high-speed bandwidth provides an excellent proposition for a great number of users.  Fasthosts can use its scale to drive down the cost of ownership.”

MS dedicated servers offer the user an unrivalled platform for the fast and effective deployment of .NET web applications.  The Windows dedicated server operating system is ideal for seamless integration with Microsoft Office and other popular applications. 

Significantly, all Fasthosts servers are housed in a superior data centre environment in the UK.  All service and technical support is provided 24/7 from the UK by email or phone.
