Let’s Compare Jolt

GDPR

the new data protection laws which apply to all business use of internet basically exclude the use of servers in the USA.

If your intention is to drive large or massive amounts of traffic to your website, there are various upgrades to handle this from both providers. However Namecheap don’t have the really big upgrades available from UK server farms.

UK hosting costs more, namecheap don’t charge much more for the privilege & they are an activist company with an agenda that favours ‘mom & pop’ businesses over monopolistic corporate interests.

Both providers can move your entire web thing with all it’s settings and data round their server farms quickly & with ease. Moving between providers is also possible as they both want to steal each others business, by offering free “migrate to us” services.

Both Providers use the Web Host Manager software so your complete data set is compatible between the two.

Provider	Namecheap	Jolt

origin	USA Arizona	UK
UK Servers	YES	YES
UK Upgrade servers	YES	YES
UK VPS & Private Server	NO, TX & AZ (USA)	YES

this is about location & law, now lets get on with what you get

Package	Cash	Websites	Personnel	Restriction *



NC “Stellar Plus”	23.91 +vat	unlimited	unlimited	entry proc 30
Jolt “Bolt”	49.95 +vat	20	20	20 personnel

NC “Stellar”	£18.82 +vat	3	30	entry proc 20
Jolt “Sparkle”	£14.96 +vat	2	2	1Gbyte RAM

* the restriction being the limit that i consider matters the most

Just like namecheap do, Jolt say they’ll give me commission on sales where a new customer clicks to their site from my affiliate link https://www.jolt.co.uk?ref=timothyduckitt

domain £5.80 +vat / yr

ssl £30 +vat

extras like fancy web themes, upgrades and things all cost more.

ECJ finally acts on GDPR

Despite Facebook & their sycophants in the Irish Government throwing millions at a case the European Court of Justice has finally ruled that American companies can no longer use SCC’s (Standard Contractual Clauses) to duck out of responsibilities under GDPR legislation.

SCC’s are used by all the big USA tech giants in this manner, to avoid the fact that once inside the USA, UK & EU data becomes fair game for their alphabet soup of spy agencies. This is a breach of our rights under GDPR and unless the USA governments change all their collective minds about their surveillance laws things will slowly but surely get ugly.

Facebook isn’t the only offender, microsoft are looking at Office365, one-cloud and Skype becoming non-compliant. Google too, with most of their offerings involving USA data centres. G-suite & google-documents could end up on the banned list along with dropbox & dozens of SaaS providers. All this despite all the providers mentioned having really good security reputations
