Through our partnership with Ilisys Web Hosting in Western Australia, e-CBD is able to provide what we truly believe to be the best, most cost-effective web hosting in this country. In addition to e-CBD's legendary customer service and attention to detail, when you host through us you also get the following:

A 100% Australian business
Our business, network, servers and staff are all based in our West Australian headquarters. That means we have 24 hour access to our own equipment. And you have access to our senior technicians when you need them most - during Australian business hours.

We keep great company
You can judge a business by the company it keeps. We've built unique relationships with Google and Urchin and strategic partnerships with GeoTrust and Microsoft.

We know small business
We host websites and email for 18,000 Australian businesses, on the Gold Coast, in Brisbane and throughout Australia. We've grown by listening to them and building our company around their needs. We understand how to help you run a website that will make or save your business money.

We understand developers
More often than not, businesses will put us in touch with their developers and we've built relationships with literally thousands. That means when you call, our staff will speak your language.

We're carbon neutral
We use more than 200,000 KWh of electricity each year, providing services to 18,000 Australian businesses. By using GreenPower renewable energy and by planting trees, we eliminate our greenhouse gas emissions. By choosing Ilisys, you are contributing to a healthier environment.

First-class technology
More often than not, our customers are Australian small business. But our technology is decidedly big business. We use Network Appliance storage, Cisco routers and firewalls, Foundry load-balancers and Veritas backup systems.

Optus provides 100 Mb of pure, dedicated bandwidth to our private, on-site data centre which is equipped with raised floors, environmental monitoring and UPS. A serviced, on-site diesel generator provides backup power.

We guarantee uptime
We operate a fully redundant internal network, from our switching and routing equipment right down to clustered web, email and ftp servers. It really means something when we guarantee our service. That's why we publish and honour a Service Level Agreement (SLA) for all our Linux-hosted customers. .

A culture of innovation
We have a great team of developers and every day they're working on features and systems to improve our service to you. Innovation is part of our culture and we welcome input from staff and customers alike.
