SWS is an offshoot of a small consultancy company (Survey & Statistical Computing) that specialises in databases for various types of statistical operation. Various clients needed web-based services, so SWS was set up to assist them, and then we decided to offer the service more generally.
The underlying service provider (the people who own the hardware) is NetCetera, and we are a reseller of their services, augmented by our special skills.
The basic service we provide (see Services for full details) is cheap and cheerful. It includes Domain name registration, web space, e-mail (and dial-in connection at local rates, if needed), all for £100 per year. The dial-in connection can be used by anyone, not just SWS clients. High-speed connections are also available.
Our target clients are small businesses or organisations who want to enhance their profile or visibility by obtaining a suitable internet domain name and setting up a web presence (with linked e-mail addresses). If you can build your own web pages (and there are many easy ways of doing this - we generally use Microsoft FrontPage), then we offer a cheap way in. We can also offer site building and mailbox management, but those are additional, chargeable, services.
The service is not suitable for businesses that are dependent on their web presence for their survival, because we are not big enough to be able to provide guaranteed levels of service or support. That said, NetCetera do claim that their services have better than 99.9% availability. Our experience is that you might expect 3 or 4 days out of a year when the web or e-mail services are not available, for some reason or other.
The following sites all operate within the SWS service, and can be visited as examples of performance. We also built them all, so they give examples of our design services.
