Accounts starting from £7 a month; includes traffic load balancing and mitigation of denial of service attacks.

Freshosts, a web hosting services provider, today anounced the launch of a new hosting service, backed by Jamcamedia.

The company says that traffic load balancing and mitigation of denial of service attacks are included in each account along with the ability to combine Windows and open source technologies on a web site, running ASP and PHP pages from the same web directory. Accounts start from £7 a month.

According to Mike Lee, company's Sales Manager, Freshosts True Hybrid technology checks each file, sending Windows and Linux pages to clusters using those platforms. "As a design shop, you may get a client that has legacy code on their site that uses one technology, and you want to work with another technology," said Lee. "This way, you can keep what's working and build on top of it.

"We are looking to collect beta participants before the site goes live in May 2006," said Lee. "Beta participants will be able to test the service and then give feed back to the team at Freshosts. "There's a big sense of energy at Freshosts," said Lee. "All of the team believes what we're doing could really change things in the world of hosting."
