About our services
Managed webhosting
Our clients never worry over webhosting! We take care of all hosting-related matters, troubleshooting and (for SuttonNet-built and WordPress sites) web software updates. We work to keep all the websites that share your website's hosting space, clear of any viruses, security risks or malware that could impact other sites too.
You don't need to log in to any webhosting interface or understand complex instructions. There's no risk that you will mess up your website by changing some vital specs. Just log in to your website's CMS to edit webpages and process sales or bookings.
We take responsibility for managing your site's PHP upgrades, DNS records, SSL/TLS certificate installation & the best hosting and server configurations.
See our Hosting Terms and Conditions.
Email hosting
Email is hosted on 3rd party specialist mail servers in Sydney. This is a reseller service; we do not manage the mail servers directly.
Our role is to:
- create new mail accounts & up/downgrade plans on request
- set up DNS records (where we host DNS)
- provide clients with the correct account settings for their plan
- help clients with setup on their own devices or ad hoc email support (support fees apply)
- create & manage support tickets to the 3rd party provider on your behalf (fees may apply).
Client support
We are available to answer your queries, concerns and problems re website or email hosting (phone calls & emails).
We reserve the right to charge a Client Support fee. A fee will always be charged for email support.
For urgent problems, you can phone us outside normal office hours. What's urgent? It depends on your business. Always check this site first for fast troubleshooting tips; the answer might be as simple as paying your domain name renewal.
Here are some urgent items:
- ecommerce sales problems
- lost data
- suspected website hacking
- email failure (after you have checked your account settings & this site)
- problems that we need to track in our server logs; logs are only kept for a few days
- anything that will get much worse if it is left unfixed.
Ring or email us and we will attend to your request as soon as we practically can. We check emails and landline messages frequently.
Leaving a message on our M phone (SMS or voicemail) is the slowest & least reliable method of contacting SuttonNet.
- We don't usually use our mobile phone in the office, except for the dreaded ATO business portal access & for website testing.
- When we are out and about, we take our M phone; but we might not receive your message/call quickly. Mobile coverage in our local area is patchy.
