Why WellMade Website
Web Hosting Service?
Over 20 Years of Web Hosting Edinburgh Experience
We have been hosting web sites for our Edinburgh, Scotland, UK and International clients since 2000.
Originally, we hosted sites with the Edinburgh based Ednet (who later became Lumison and now Pulsant). Then we moved to reseller web hosting, trying Fasthosts, and then Heart Internet, before moving to 20i in 2017.
From what I can work out Heart Internet, who we used for nearly 10 years was bought out by 123Reg/Fasthosts at some point recently and some of the Heart management then set up 20i. We certainly find 20i more stable and easier to use than any of the other hosts and therefore would recommend their hosting services for any small and medium sized web sites.
For larger web sites, especially large E-commerce web sites we would recommend Siteground.
If you already have web hosting:
Many web site clients have their own hosting and we have built many sites on 123Reg, Siteground, GoDaddy, UKFAST, 1And1, and many more besides. So, wherever you host your web site I am sure we will be able to cope (though Amazon AWS is a bit terrifying to be honest).
Either way, we can help:
So, whether the web hosting is for a business portfolio to gain enquiries, or hosting for direct sales using e-commerce, we believe WellMadeWebsite has the web hosting experience to help you make a success of your web site whether you are looking for web hosting Edinburgh or elsewhere.

Migrating your Web Site and moving your Hosting to an Edinburgh Web Hosting service ‘near me’
We help a lot of websites move hosting. Some of the benefits of our hosting are listed above. Here are the elements involved with migrating a website to a new host:
- Domain Name Transfer:
Your domain needs to direct visitors to the new site. This can be done in 3 ways:
- Transferring the Domain to the new Hosts: Using a domain transfer request the domain is moved to the new host. Some domains like .co.uk domains are easy to move, others like .com domains involve a certain amount of security checks prior to transfer. We will help in the process and explain each step.
- Changing Nameservers is the next best option, it means the domain stays where is it but all its services: email, hosting etc.. are moved to the new host.
- Changing A records is the 3rd method and means leaving the domain and nameservers at the orginal host but redirecting the website services ONLY to the new host. The downside to this is that the free Lets Encrypt SSL is not available and a paid for SSL certificates will be needed. - Email Migration:
As your hosting will move it is very likely that your email system will move too.
If you use a 3rd party email system like Microsoft Office 365 then it will be a simple matter of making sure the DNS edits that direct your email to Microsoft remain in place.
If you have email accounts set up with your hosting then normally we can migrate the accounts to the new hosting including all old email. - Website Migration:
We will take a back up of the website and install it on the new server.
The website is tested to make sure it all works correctly.
THEN the domain is directed (by transfer, nameserver or A Records) to the new host and the website will start to work.
Migrating or moving a web site to a new host is normally a fairly simple and quick thing to do. It can be done in a matter of hours to a fews days depending on the size and complication of the web site, whether the emails need to be migrated and whether the domain is being transferred or not.
Please contact us if you are needing your website migrated or transferred to a new host.
