CLOSED - Was a hosting company with a difference

Based in Kent, we had been providing website hosting services to businesses and the public since 2002.

We started out in the free hosting sector but this was dropped due to the admin overhead incurred by misuse. Next we moved to paid hosting using a well received "pay as you go" pricing model with no contract. We have hosted websites for members all over the globe that include personal sites, development projects and e-commerce sites taking millions in sales.

Our aim was to make it as easy as possible for users to develop and deploy applications on the internet, with low cost hosting and accessible expertise. We believe on this point we have been successful, numerous clients have setup their first dynamic and static sites on our service with minimal hassle.

Our pricing has remained competitive for the level of hosting we offer, but our members' expectations of what they receive for their £1 per month has increased considerably. In the last 11 years the internet and associated technologies have changed dramatically, with members sites becoming more complex and needing additional assistance, which we have been gladly giving at times more than many other larger hosting companies.

We regretfully inform all our members that all our services will be stopping on 24/07/2013.

All accounts with additional credit after this date will have this credit refunded shortly. If accounts are closed before the above date any additional credit will also be refunded.

Please contact us if you need assistance moving your site to another provider.

Regards, The Development Island team.
