Labour.Thanks to Atlas' network the
Liberal Democrat's site was the fastest to load and the only site out of the
Liberal Democrats, Labour, Conservatives and the Green party to achieve 100%
uptime.
Atlas' data centre
provides Being with a hosting service to support their online activity.It is a secure facility and is designed to operate
to 99.999% uptime and Being can access additional bandwidth automatically as
they have peaks in traffic.This means
that Being did not have to worry about bandwidth congestion or downtime
affecting the service they provide to the Liberal Democrat Party.This proved essential during the run up to
the general election with over 100, 000 unique visitors to the Liberal Democrat
website on the day before the election and over 40, 000 by 11am on Election
Day.
