x2 overselling
Overselling is the act of selling more resources than you have available to use and based on the assumption that not all hosting accounts will use 100% of resources purchased. This is used by resellers so that they can allocate 2 times more resources than they have available to use as long as actual does not exceed the account limits.
-
Private nameservers are often preferred by resellers as an extra element of custom branding to accounts. They involve setting the hosted accounts to use nameservers based on the account main domain (eg ns1/2.yourdomain.co.uk) instead of our anonymous generic nameservers.
-
Complete anonymity
Special care has been taken to keep us anonymous at all times by using an anonymous hostname, domain (+ anonymous whois info). Therefore, you can be sure that your customers will not be able to trace your hosting packages back to us.
-
Free billing software
Resellers often benefit from using software to manage clients, billing and new orders which can save many hours of administration time of operating a hosting business. We provide a free license for one of the leading software makers ClientExec.
-
Free domain reseller account
We can provide access to a third party account capable of registering and managing domain names at discounted rates. These accounts are provided by a third party provider, Enom.com.
-
Redundant DNS cluster
DNS is the part of the internet that translates domain names to IP addresses pointing to the server that domain is hosted on. It is critical that DNS is available 100% of the time and for this reason we host all of our DNS systems on separate servers spread around the world minimising any kind of total failure by a large degree.
-
Email auto failover
Our advanced email cluster is fully redundant meaning that in the very rare event of the primary systems being unavailable, all email will be queued on a separate off network system and forwarded to the primary email systems when they are available.

Discounts off popular scripts
We have arranged for our clients to get discounts off popular scripts and services. At the time of writing we have arranged discounts on all products at Kayako, DemoDemo.com and InstantDemo and we are currently working on more.

Free off network account
All clients with an active reseller/multiple domain account are entitled to a free shared hosting account on a server and network totally separate to all our other servers. This is completely anonymous (no mention of Clook Internet) and can be used for a server status or customer support page.
-
Multi-layered backups
Your data is of critical importance to us so we ensure that it is always backed up in our backup schedule. Not only do we provide access to backup features in the control panel we also backup all data to a separate hard drive daily and carry out data backups to our off server, high capacity storage system.

RAID5 storage
RAID is a technology using multiple physical hard drives to store data which act redundantly and can continue working to capacity even if one drive should fail.
