Website & cloud hosting
Website, email or business application: choose hosting around what you actually run. 7iT plans the setup, migration and ongoing care across shared hosting, Microsoft Azure and AWS.
Free initial consultation. Scope and pricing agreed before work begins.
Three platforms. One accountable team.
01
For a straightforward business website.
A practical home for WordPress and smaller websites, with domains, SSL, updates and backups included in the agreed plan.
02
For Microsoft-connected workloads.
Consider Azure for Windows applications and services that need to work with your existing Microsoft environment. We review access, capacity and running costs.
03
For custom applications and growth.
Build around the needs of your application, API or database. We scope infrastructure, monitoring and budgets before choosing the services.
What we take care of
01
Inventory your site, email and dependencies. Prepare and test the destination before the changeover.
02
Manage records, certificates and renewal responsibilities so essential details have a clear owner.
03
Plan software and server updates around the platform, compatibility and your business needs.
04
Agree on backup schedules, retention and recovery checks. Confirm what is protected and how it is restored.
05
Review availability, capacity and cloud spending. Investigate alerts and discuss changes before expanding.
06
Set up domain email and coordinate migrations, including Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace where suitable.
The final quote defines included services, responsibilities and support arrangements.
A careful move
01
Review the current platform, access, data and costs. Agree on the destination and migration scope.
02
Prepare the new environment. Check pages, forms, applications and email before requesting approval.
03
Schedule the cutover and explain any expected disruption. Keep a rollback option appropriate to the migration.
04
Verify the new setup before retiring the old service. Document access, backups and ongoing care.
Clear scope. Clear costs.
Shared hosting
A quoted hosting and management fee based on your website and agreed service scope.
Cloud hosting
Azure and AWS costs depend on selected services and usage. We discuss sizing, budget alerts and management fees.
Migration
A separate quote for the agreed migration, testing and handover. Approve the scope before work starts.
Availability, recovery requirements and ongoing responsibilities are agreed with you.
Questions, answered
We first review the site, hosting access and dependencies. The migration plan covers testing, cutover and recovery options before anything moves.
Tell us your residency requirements. We review the selected region, services, backups and connected tools before confirming an appropriate configuration.
Your domain and hosting accounts should remain under your ownership. Access and management responsibilities are documented during setup.
We review capacity, performance and costs with you. A larger plan or a different platform is considered when the workload justifies it.
