Fast, secure and fully managed website hosting
We offer high speed, ultra secure hosting to make sure your website loads quickly and is not vulnerable to hacking or malware.
Your website needs more than somewhere to store its files. It needs a reliable hosting environment that keeps it fast, secure, available and properly maintained.
At Ambos, we provide managed UK website hosting for businesses, charities and organisations that need dependable performance without having to manage the technical details themselves.
Our hosting is supported by proactive monitoring, security protection, regular maintenance and the Cloudflare global network.
Whether we have built your website or you are moving an existing site to us, we can provide a hosting package tailored to its size, traffic and technical requirements.
Managed website hosting
We manage our own dedicated server infrastructure within leading UK data centres, giving us greater control over performance, security and server configuration.
Rather than placing every website onto the same generic hosting package, we assess what your website needs and configure an appropriate environment. This can include shared hosting for smaller business websites, higher-performance hosting for busy websites and dedicated resources for ecommerce platforms, membership systems and bespoke web applications.
As your hosting provider, we take care of the underlying server environment, website configuration, backups, monitoring and technical support. You do not need to deal with a separate hosting company whenever there is a problem.
Our hosting services include:
Website security
Website security is not a one-off installation. New vulnerabilities, malicious bots and automated attacks appear constantly, which means websites need ongoing protection and monitoring.
We use several layers of security to help protect the websites we host. This includes server-level firewalls, malware monitoring, secure configuration, SSL encryption and protection at the network edge through Cloudflare.
For WordPress websites, we also monitor the core platform, themes and plugins for available security updates. Where we identify suspicious activity, vulnerable software or unusual traffic, we can investigate and take appropriate action before it develops into a more serious problem.
Our security measures can include:
Cloudflare content delivery network
We use Cloudflare to improve the speed, security and resilience of the websites we host.
A content delivery network, commonly known as a CDN, stores copies of eligible website content across a distributed network of locations. When someone visits your website, static content can be delivered from a Cloudflare location closer to them rather than every request having to travel back to the main hosting server.
This can reduce loading times, lower the demand on the hosting server and help websites remain responsive during periods of increased traffic.
Cloudflare also provides an additional security layer between visitors and the website. Malicious requests, automated attacks and unwanted traffic can be identified and challenged before they reach the hosting environment.
Cloudflare configuration is managed carefully around the requirements of each website. This is particularly important for ecommerce, membership and booking websites, where account pages, baskets, checkout processes and personalised content must not be cached incorrectly.
Benefits of our Cloudflare integration include:
Cloudflare Stream video hosting
Large video files can consume significant server resources and slow down a website when they are uploaded directly to a standard media library.
For websites that use video extensively, we can provide video hosting and delivery through Cloudflare Stream. Videos are stored separately from the main website, processed into suitable formats and delivered through Cloudflare’s global network.
Cloudflare Stream automatically adjusts video quality to suit the viewer’s device and available connection. This helps provide smoother playback while reducing the bandwidth and processing demands placed on the website itself.
Where appropriate, videos can also be protected using signed or time-limited access, helping to prevent restricted content from being viewed or shared outside an authorised website or application.
Cloudflare Stream is particularly suitable for:
Website maintenance and updates
A website needs regular maintenance to remain secure, stable and compatible with changing browsers, servers and third-party services.
Our managed maintenance service covers the technical tasks required to keep your website operating properly. We regularly review available updates, monitor the website for problems and test important functionality following significant changes.
Updates are approached carefully rather than being installed without review. Where a website includes ecommerce, bookings, membership functionality or custom integrations, we consider the potential impact before applying major changes.
Maintenance packages can also include an agreed allocation of development time for content changes, improvements and minor technical work.
Our maintenance service can include:
Dedicated support & monitoring
Monitoring & backups
We monitor the availability and health of the websites we host so that technical problems can be identified quickly. Depending on the hosting package, this can include uptime monitoring, server resource monitoring, security alerts and checks on important website processes.
Backup schedules and retention periods can be adjusted for websites where content, customer information or transactions change frequently.
Hosting for WordPress & WooCommerce
Our hosting environments are configured with WordPress and WooCommerce in mind.
We configure caching, server resources, security rules and monitoring around the actual operation of the website. Where necessary, we can also investigate conflicts involving plugins, payment providers, APIs, scheduled tasks and external services.
Support from people who know your website
When your hosting, maintenance and website development are managed by separate suppliers, it can be difficult to establish who is responsible when something goes wrong.
We work with organisations that rely on their websites for enquiries, bookings, payments, membership services, internal systems and day-to-day operations. Our role is to keep that infrastructure secure, supported and performing effectively.
