From humble beginnings based in New Zealand in the early 1990's, Southern Lights Networks developed websites and used shared hosting facilities. Southern Lights Networks relocated to Brisbane Australia in the late 90's and has grown and developed to provide world class web hosting facilities, award winning websites and also on-premise I.T. services to a wide variety of businesses throughout Australia and New Zealand.

Hosting Services

Today Southern Lights Networks provide web and email hosting, virtual dedicated servers and co-location services to a wide variety of clients from individuals, small to medium businesses, NGO's, community, educational and charitable organisations throughout Australia, New Zealand and throughout the South Pacific.

Unlike many other hosting providers we own our servers and they are hosted in a world class data centre in Brisbane, Australia. We use industry leading HP servers utlising enterprise VMware that are incredibly reliable and fault tolerant. The data centre is connected to a dark-fibre Metropolitan Area Network which is a fully redundant, geographically diverse fibre ring network giving our clients the assurance that their products and services are available on the internet at all times. The Data Centre commitment to redundancy has been extended to all core services, including UPS systems, electricity supply and air-conditioning with a minimum N+1 specification.

Web Design

Web design services is where we started back in 1994. Back then we coded websites by hand using tools such as Notepad.

Since then we have employed a range of industry standard programs such as Dreamweaver®, and continue the use of text editors for customised tweaks, to custom design effective, affordable and unique websites for our clients.

Today we still continue to custom design effective and stunning websites for clients all over Australasia. Southern Lights Networks can design a web site for your business, whether it is a small informational website, a full-scale secure e-commerce site or anything in between.

Business Services

In the early 2000's some of our clients, in addition to providing web services,  wanted us to manage their I.T. systems.

Back then it was usually a collection of PC's operating standalone or in a workgroup network, sometimes with a dialup internet connection.

Today our services range from managing and supporting workgroup PC's all the way through to designing and managing business networks with Servers, PC's, Laptops, Mobile devices, VOIP, Switches, Routers, Access Points, Remote Access, VPN, Cloud Storage and much more.
