Demon Internet
WWW Server and Services

Demon Internet provides WWW (World Wide Web) services for Internet users and companies that want to make information available via this medium.

The services on offer range from simple WWW server space to a complete design and build service for both CD-ROMs and WWW servers.

The services that can be built range from simple textual information on a WWW page to complex catalogue CD-Roms with ordering and updates done over the internet using Mosaic. In the non-commercial world we are currently developing the eCity and eCity Cafe in collaboration with the Artec and the ICA in London, showing the wide diversity of applications these new tools can encompass. We have a growing list of UK commercial customers.

Why Demon Internet for server space?

Demon Internet is one of the three leading internet providers in the UK, with over 35,000 UK customers, peering arrangements to the other commercial UK providers and their own wide band connection and back up routing to the United States. This results in excellent connectivity for any prospective client wishing to make information available on the Internet for both UK and Worldwide distribution of information. Coupled with Demon's 24 hour network monitoring to ensure that both machines and network connections are available to our customers and their intended audience or marketplace.

Design And Build Services

We offer extensive design and build services, from the mechanics of having a single page, to the production of a full forms based ordering system. Our WWW specialists are experienced in all aspects of WWW design, particularly forms based ordering systems, production of on-line catalogues, server architecture, and web publishing systems.

The Mechanics of Having Web Space

You can choose a name for the top level of your Web space and so your link could be:

	http://www.demon.co.uk/yourname/

People referring to this page will pick up your first page which should be called:

	index.html

We also offer a WWW forwarding service (for an extra £200 per annum) whereby the link could become

	http://www.yourname.co.uk/

We run our server on a Sun four-processor HyperSparc system, running the Solaris 2.4 operating system (a version of the UNIX system). Like all UNIX systems, Solaris is case sensitive and expects the extension of your files to be .html and not .htm. All users should take care to ensure they use lower case references and/or ensure that case is correct in other references. For Web space only Customers, you are required to provide your files in a ready to go format. Of course you may experience difficulty in the first instance and we will assist. Beyond the first successful installation we cannot undertake to manipulate your files though.

You can update your server space when you see fit as you will have direct ftp and telnet access to it.

It might be useful to look at the full instructions on how to maintain your own WWW space..
