We host all our servers onsite. There are multiple onsite servers for load balancing and fail-over protection for our business and Web application system. If a server fails, others are there to automatically handle the load until the missing server is brought back online. Servers can be added and removed from the Web server farm in minutes using our custom built web interface application switch. If a server should fail our technology on call staff will be notified immediately.

Why Location Is Important
Your website should always be accessible - you believe that and so do we.  Datacenter location is the key to reliability and up-time.  No matter how sophisticated the equipment, a datacenter that gets slammed by a hurricane is going to go down - and so will your website.  With servers based in the Mid-West, we are rarely subject to hurricanes, earth quakes, and much of the severe weather that frequently hits the East & West coasts.  We regularly receive calls from hosting companies & webmasters that are looking for a more secure physical environment where their servers can be safe. 

The great thing about the internet is that someone, from anywhere in the world, can access your website while you stay put where you are.  For that reason, it doesn't matter how close your office is to your website host or their datacenter - whether you're looking for a robust dedicated server or starter web hosting service, you can, and will, maintain your website from the comforts of your office.  You should always look for a hosting company that is in a secure location away from the threat of frequent severe weather. 

Our datacenter is located less than a mile from the corporate headquarters of our regional power company, putting us within a special "priority area" when it comes to restoring power in the case of an outage - and that's no coincidence!  We've positioned ourselves strategically to provide uninterrupted service to our customers and our own operations.  You need maximum up-time, and we're here to bring it to you!

Full Service Managed Services
Our full service management is available for all of our customers & all services.  We can take care of all of the patches and software updates for the operating system, monitor ports and security settings and continuously provide the 'ultimate customer experience' for our shared and fully managed servers.  We also provide our management & maintenance services for dedicated & co-location on an as needed basis to accommodate for experienced web masters and server administrators. 

If you have the knowledge, experience, and time, we can provide the same dedicated server hardware without management services.  This greatly reduces the cost of getting a top quality server from FPWH.
