Secure Web Hosting

Secure server space is used on the Internet where sensitive information is going to be transferred over the Internet. This information is usually credit card information or other financial details. Due to the sensitive nature of this sort of information it is common practice on the Internet for such details to be held and processed on secure server space.

Why do I need Secure Server Space?

The history of the Internet has been fraught with fears regarding fraudulent use of credit cards and fears regarding security. We will provide you with secure server space which will allow visitors to your web site to transmit data e.g. credit card details between the web server and the web browser securely . This is usually shown by a broken key becoming whole in Netscape Navigator or a padlock locking in Microsoft Internet Explorer.

What will happen if I do not use Secure Server Space?

If you wish to take credit card details and do not use secure server space, it is possible that someone may attempt to intercept this information. Even if you are personally not concerned about this threat (it is actually quite rare), visitors to your Web site may be very concerned. Therefore, in cases where you are transmitting sensitive information, we recommend you use the The Web Clinic Secure Socket Layer (SSL). SSL is an industry-standard way of passing sensitive information between computers.

What does it cost to make my site secure?

We will upgrade your server to enable you to run a SSL site for an annual fee of £149.99 +VAT. We do not charge any set up fee and you still get all the benefits of the The Web Clinic standard hosting service.

How do I apply for a Secure Server Upgrade?

To apply for the The Web Clinic Secure Server Socket Layer please email our sales department and one of our Sales Support staff will contact you sales@thewebclinic.co.uk

Alternatively you can call our Sales Department
