Beautiful layout. Simple, elegant, informative: makes me really trust your service.
Oo, phone numbers! Very, very, very nice touch.
I wish there was US billing. I'm a little wary that my card will be charged in Sterling. Is "converted upon payment" a way of saying that my card will convert or that you'll convert and charge my card in USD? Also, I find it's good practice to just settle on an international price even if that means that sometimes different currencies see a discount/overcharge.
A volume discount would be nice. Monitoring 10 servers right now would run £100. Maybe do something like, £10/server for the first 5, £6/server for 6-20, and £3 for 21+. I'm guessing that the service doesn't put a lot of load on your box and a big client with an IT department who won't be wasting a lot of your time, but has a lot of boxes to monitor would be a catch. Small customers are sometimes the most hassle so offer volume discounts.
Nice to see an alive blog with actual interesting things on it rather than a simple "we have a blog" PR-type thing.
I gotta say, it looks mighty impressive. Clean, good looking, you seem to know your stuff, I don't have many questions. Really, the big issue I see is that there is no volume discount. I'd guess that the cost of dealing with two customers each monitoring one server is higher than one customer monitoring two servers. Especially as that number goes up - if I'm a network admin monitoring 50 boxes for a company, I know what I'm doing and will figure out things to a greater extent than some random one server person.
Very nice! Good luck!

Based on your feedback it seems it might be worth mentioning that on the pricing page. Thanks for the feedback.
