Today, Wednesday 12th September 2018, marks a hefty five years since Ethernet Servers was born!\u00a0<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

We couldn’t be more pleased with our achievements during this time. It goes without saying that everything has improved in that time, from our front-end systems to the backend technology and hardware that powers the operation!\u00a0<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Our first cPanel shared hosting server used version\u00a011.38.2.7, and had just one static version of PHP (5.3) with very little control available to the end-user. Here we are, five years later, with many versions available (PHP 5.1 -> 7.2) and more power for the end-user than you can shake a stick at!\u00a0<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

With lots of plans in the pipeline, that directly enhance the experience of our customers, we know that the next five years are going to be even better.\u00a0<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

None of these five years would have been possible without\u00a0YOU<\/strong>, our loyal customers, for which we are very thankful.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Some of our oldest customers may remember\u00a0this<\/a>, our first-ever website.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

As the British like to say, cheers, and here’s to the next five years!<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
