At Big Trousers we provide reliable web hosting at reasonable prices.
We take the time to advise you on what hosting plan suits your requirements.
Our server choice is a blend of up to date hardware and Open Source software giving both security and capacity. Management of the data center is handled by expert technicians and we have an instant support service if it is required. It is our aim however to maintain a high standard of service at all times. Email services continue to be our main area of support contact and in most cases we can resolve your issue immediately over the phone.
When we install WordPress or other server based content management and eCommerce systems we maintain those applications by applying security updates and functionality updates as soon as they become available. This ensures ongoing protection of your site from malicious code and a continuing improvement to server based systems. We can also assist in any email set up for small or large networks. We also have a choice of a fast Australian located data center at slightly higher prices. This service is preferred when high speed connection is required for businesses with mostly or totally local client base. Below are our standard hosting plans for a range of web strategies.
