Brisbane Shared & Reseller hosting services are now available to order!

It’s been a few months in the making, but its now an available option/location when ordering online.

These servers are much like our existing shared & reseller servers, with Xeon Dual & Quad Core CPU based servers, with 2-4GB ram, redundant hard drives and fantastic network connectivity.

How do you order a Brisbane based service?

Quite simply really. Just order as per normal and it’s an option for the “Location” when ordering.

Ok, let’s face it. We’ve all at some stage needed assistance with our PCs or other electronics, but sometimes, we’ve either been too afraid to ask or we’ve simply avoided the situatio, “made do” with hard to read instruction manuals or thrown it straight into the “too hard” basket due to the fears of high costs in hiring someone to assist you.

But what if you could put all of that behind you and get the assistance you need NOW without the need to pay expensive contractors and technicians.

Thats where a NearbyNerd can help!

Hightek Hosting is the proud hosting provider for a site developed by a self-confessed nerd called NearbyNerd

NearbyNerd was put together by a one Gilad Bakas, who saw the need to link users in need of help with those who could offer it without breaking the bank.

The site puts users in touch with their nearest nerd by use of postcode and suburb searches and at present, matains a database of over 500 nerds and is continously growing.

Boasting information about local “nerds”, the services they specialise in and their rates is just one way this site is helping users find the services they need, when they need it.

Most of the nerds on the site are like Gilad, being self-confessed nerds and perform technical task for either a small business or hobby, but they also allow for personal and friendly advice to be offered for as little as $10 per hour.

To find out more about NearbyNerd why not visit their site by following this link.
