The infrastructure is the glue that links all the systems together – it includes the pointers to make sure your domain name points to the web hosting, the set-up of your internal systems used to access email and any other links that may be needed between the website and your back-office systems.

The hosting is the space where the website lives. It also includes the provision of email services and webmail facilities so that you can check email wherever you may be. Although we prefer Linux for reliability in the web environment and offer our own hosting facilities, the choice of hosting should be dictated by your business requirements – performance, scaleability, etc.
