Ordering On-line & Security Our order process is very simple and is arranged into easy steps. You require no technical knowledge to order a hosting account. We use Worldpay as our trusted payment partner and they are the only organisation we pass your details to. This is to ensure your credit card details are passed over the Internet totally securely. All transactions, including your name, address and card details are encrypted using 128 bit Secure Socket Layer (SSL) architecture and are signed using Thawte digital certificates during transmission over the Internet to WorldPay. This means that your details cannot be intercepted or read by anyone except WorldPay plc. Many experts believe that today's encryption techniques make using a credit card on the Internet safer than using your credit card to make telephone transactions. SOHosts has no access to your credit or debit card details. The only information we receive from WorldPay is your name, address, email, goods ordered and amount debited.

This is an important process as the DNS record points the entire Internet to the location of your domain name, i.e. our servers. However, due to the enormous size of the Internet this can take up to seven days to complete (but typically 48 hours). Getting Started Once your domain name has become active on our servers we will contact you via email with your account details, including access passwords and information on how to get up and running. We also provide step-by-step tutorials on how to use your control panel and set up your account, including email. Visit our support site for more information. If you have any queries about domain transfer, setting up your new hosting account or any aspect of our service we are only a free phone call away...
