Security Is Our Top Priority

Don’t be fooled. Those big web self-hosting companies don’t provide any security for you. You are expected to do your own backups, or buy backup services from them. The same is true for threat protection. You have a business to run and that’s what you do best. Leave the security up to Silver City Web Services.

Silver City Web Services provides state of the art website monitoring. All access is checked and if seems malicious it is stopped. Uptime is monitored 24/7/365 and you have access to your own dashboard. As a final security measure your website is backed up every night and stored in a remote storage facility.

Here are the services you get with Silver City Web Service’s care plan.

  • Silver City Web Services uses CloudFlare’s services to provide the first level of defense against your web server being hacked.
    • Hiding Origin IP: Cloudflare conceals your origin server’s IP address from potential attackers. They only see Cloudflare’s IPs, adding an extra layer of security.
    • Malicious Traffic Mitigation: Cloudflare automatically detects and stops malicious traffic before it reaches your origin web server.
    • Web Application Firewall (WAF): Cloudflare’s WAF protects against common web threats like SQL injection and cross-site scripting (XSS)
    • Additionally
      • Content Delivery Network (CDN): Cloudflare acts as a CDN, caching static resources and optimizing asset delivery.
      • HTTP/2 Protocol: Cloudflare supports HTTP/2, improving site speed by enabling parallel loading of page elements.
  • Silver City Web Services uses Vultr server services to provide you with the most modern, secure data centers located in 32 locations across the globe. This means that if your customers are located in Los Angeles or Sidney there is a data center nearby.
  • Silver City Web Services provides you with a Virtual Private Server with a dedicated IP address. Most hosting services use “Shared Hosting”. What this means is if someone else’s server gets overloaded or hacked, your server suffers. We use Virtual Private Servers so your website is never affected by anyone else’s website.
  • Silver City Web Services uses Plesk server management platform. This provides firewall protection and website management.
  • Silver City Web Services will build your website using the WordPress content management platform.
    • WordPress allows you to supply the content for the website while Silver City Web Services styles that content.
    • A lot of people think of WordPress as a “blogging” platform. Silver City Web Services has recognized that it is much more powerful and utilizes the content management capabilities to provide you with a dynamic website.
  • Silver City Web Services has a dedicated server to monitoring all of the websites that we host. This allows us to provide 24/7/365 monitoring. Additionally, this allows for updating the servers in a responsible manner.
  • Silver City Web Services has a dedicated server to provide you with the analytics that you need to make informed decisions about the people accessing your website.
    • Bounce rate – This tells you if people are going to the website and then leaving without looking around. This would indicate that maybe your home page is not grabbing them.
    • Country – You can see on a world map where your website visitors are coming from.
    • Pages Viewed – This shows what web pages are most popular.
    • There are many more analitics that you can view.
    • All of this is your data. It is not shared with anyone, unlike Google that shares the data about everyone that visits your website.
