We have switched to a new backup service.  All data is still secured, encrypted in UK data centres but you have more control of the backups and restoration of data.  You can find the new backup tools by looking for JetBackups in the control panel.

We are upgrading Zaphod at 22:00 on Sunday 9th December. Zaphod is expected to be back online by 22:30. Websites and email will be inaccessible during the upgrade. Apologies for any inconvenience.

Effective July, Google’s Chrome browser will mark non-HTTPS sites as ‘not secure’. Switch to https:\\https://t.co/eV4JS7EZO2 and take advantage of our free SSL certs. We can help transfer your site so you can relax with the knowledge that you won't be left in the dark after July.

From July, Google’s Chrome browser will mark non-HTTPS sites as ‘not secure’. This could reduce the number of visitors to your site. Google already prioritises HTTPS results in searches. Set your website to take advantage of the free certificates we have installed for you.

We have tweaked the server to double the speed of most WordPress sites hosted on Reality42. Don't forget to set your installation to upgrade automatically and change the settings to take advantage of our free SSL certificates.

We will be doubling the power of our servers tonight, Sunday 19th Nov at around 10pm. There may be a brief outage of around 15 minutes. Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.

Datacenter outage. There are currently a number of data centers that are experiencing issues in London including Reality42's.

We have switched the default PHP version on our servers to version 7 and where possible upgraded clients sites to use PHP7.

Few users enabled Optimise Website so it is now enabled by default for all Reality42 clients to help improve the performance of your website
