Shardhost is a UK LTD company (reg 07679837) that has been providing hosting services since June 2011. We currently serve over 3500 clients. We own all of our VPS hardware.
All services are currently being offered out of our racks in Dallas, Texas (Corexchange DC). We've had servers in place with Corexchange for over a year.
We've had a great experience with all of our clients from Lowendtalk/Lowendbox so far and want to continue to develop further hosting relationships here.
