Q. What is the contention ratio of your Virtual Private Servers (VPS) Hosting ?

Ans: The contention ratio is the amount of vps users we put on the same vps node. Some vps hosting providers practice the nasty habit of overselling; that is, creating as many vps hosting accounts onto the same vps node as possible and praying that they don’t all use their dedicated resources at the same time. That is not what we do. Even if all the vps hosting users on one of our VPS nodes were to use 100% of their vps hosting resources simultaneously, there would be enough to go around with plenty to spare. You can rest assured that your vps hosting account will always be stable and unaffected by the actions of any other Webhosting UK VPS hosting user.

What is Virtuozzo?

Virtuozzo is the VPS technology created by SWsoft which allows us to create multiple isolated Virtual Private Servers (VPSs) on a single physical server to share hardware, licenses and management effort with maximum efficiency. Each VPS uses its own Disk Space, RAM, CPU, IP addresses and has its own SSH Root Accesss and it can be rebooted independently. Each VPS performs and executes exactly like a stand-alone server. In nearly every perspective you can see a VPS as if it’s a Dedicated Server.

Can we create our own resellers with our reseller hosting account?

WebHosting UK don’t support sub-reseller account under reseller hosting account. If you wish to create sub-reseller account you should consider our VPS Hosting or Semi-Dedicated Hosting or Dedicated Server Hosting.

Do you allow overselling on reseller hosting accounts?

We do NOT allow overselling on any of our Linux or Windows Reseller Hosting plans, if you wish to oversell you may consider our VPS Hosting or Semi-Dedicated Hosting plans as they have more resources and offer flexibility to oversell and keep CPU & RAM usage within acceptable performance metrics.

Q. Do you support cURL?

Ans. Yes we do provide support for cURL through the command line and as a php compiled-in option. cURL is a command line tool for transferring files with URL syntax. It is used to automate unattended file transfers or sequences of operations. You can use CURL to connect to an HTTP or HTTPS site from your hosting account.

For example: You can use CURL to connect to a site with an RSS feed or to authorize.net’s HTTPS payment processing gateway.

What do you mean by ‘burst RAM’?

Ans: Bursting means that while you are always guaranteed a certain amount of system resources, far more is available on each box than simply these guarantees. Hence, should you require your loads to spike higher than your guarantees, as long as the resources are available on the box at that time, you can use them, up to your ‘burst’ level. We are constantly monitoring the loads of each server to make sure that nothing is oversold, and that customers always have their guaranteed resources.

We make sure that an ample amount of burst resources are always available on each host machine. Your burst allottment is not the same thing as your resource guarantee. You cannot count on constant, sustained utilization of your burst resources. If your VPS constantly requires greater resources than your package guarantees, we can work with you to quickly upgrade you to a package with greater guaranteed resources.
