About Josh
Joshua Wood founded Gander Web in 2023 in Chesterfield, Derbyshire, and still runs it. The company provides UK web hosting, Ryzen and EPYC VPS, server colocation and Microsoft 365 to small businesses that would rather phone a person than queue behind a ticket.
Josh runs the infrastructure the company hosts on: the network with its and peering, the servers in the Newcastle rack, and the cPanel and platform underneath the shared hosting. When you ring up, the odds are you're describing the problem to the person who can actually fix it.
He also writes the guides on the blog. They come out of the things he works with daily, cPanel, WordPress, LiteSpeed, VPS and KVM servers, colocation, Microsoft 365, and out of the questions customers actually ask, which is why so many of them start with "how to". There's more about the company itself on the about page.
