FyfeWeb Joins LONAP

For over 10 years, FyfeWeb has been providing industry-leading web hosting services. However, over the last few years, we've been pushing our data centre colocation services and dedicated server hosting solutions. This, coupled with our relentless focus on the customer experience we deliver, has enabled us to build our own BGP-enabled network - spanning 8 data centres across the UK.

More recently, we've decided to join the LONAP internet exchange in London - giving us greater control over where traffic goes between our network and other ISPs and networks. Furthermore, because we're peering directly with these other providers, latency is reduced. Essentially, LONAP members can keep traffic local by exchanging it closer to its source or destination. This also means that the time a data packet takes to reach its destination is minimised, therefore improving connectivity even further.

Presently, we're peering and directly exchanging traffic on our network with over 260 other providers, or peers. Some of these include Vodafone, Sky, CloudFlare, Zen Internet and more. As time goes on, we hope to add even more peers by joining other internet exchanges.
