You won't have seen any adverts for us because we do not advertise. Our clients hear of us through word of mouth. Our strengths are that we realise every business is different, we enjoy what we do, and we don't mind suggesting better alternatives even if they would bring us less revenue. As you might expect from this, our rate of client turnover is low.
 
The spread of broadband means people can tell a fast website from a slow one. Our webservers sit on very fast Internet connections and we do not artificially limit the bandwidth available, or cram so many websites onto servers that busier sites find themselves with insufficient bandwidth.
 
First-Web Network Services Ltd is a full member of Nominet UK and a Domain Registration Services Provider of OpenSRS. This enables us to register and administer most of the top level domain names (TLD's) in the UK and worldwide. For full details see our Domain Registration page. Here is the complete list of worldwide domain names.
 
Most of our clients do not want 'off the peg' hosting and we have experience in setting up quite complex database-driven websites and desktop applications. An example is our travel agents' airfares program CharterFinder, which has both web and desktop components. However we can also supply standard hosting packages, as detailed below.
