Speed

High-performance cloud servers on every plan

Speed is not an add-on here. LiteSpeed, all-NVMe and tuned caching ship on the cheapest plan and the most expensive one alike, on AMD EPYC cloud servers in UK data centres, so your site and its data stay in the UK for GDPR. It is the same stack behind the fastest UK hosting we sell, WordPress plans included, and there is no faster tier to upgrade to. Caching reduces repeated application work; your site build and workload also determine load times.

How we compare

Managed cloud hosting or a cloud VPS

The short version, for picking the right type of cloud for your site.

The cloud hosting on this page is fully managed. Your site runs in its own container on a cloud server we look after, with LiteSpeed, PHP, the firewall, backups and patching handled by us, and you get a control panel, SSH and the runtimes you need. Plans are priced by sites and storage, and moving up a tier is a click, so it scales with the site without a migration.

A cloud VPS is the other route: a virtual server of your own on the same AMD EPYC hardware, with dedicated cores and RAM and full root access. Pick that when you need to configure the server yourself or run software that will not fit a hosting account. For most websites, WordPress included, the managed cloud hosting plans above are the quicker and cheaper option.

Green hosting

Fast hosting that's kinder to the planet.

Our servers run on energy-efficient AMD EPYC hardware, powered by green energy. Through our Greenspark partnership we fund tree planting, clean water projects and carbon projects.

We think web hosting can make a difference, and we're doing our part.

Tree planting Funded through our Greenspark partnership, with planting projects in Kenya.
Clean water projects The same partnership funds clean water projects alongside the planting.
Carbon projects And carbon projects, for the emissions we cannot design out of the platform.
Green energy The racks run on renewable power.
AMD EPYC hardware More performance per watt than the kit it replaced.
Efficiency first We cut the power the platform uses before we fund anything to balance it.
Greenspark, our tree planting, water and carbon partner

In partnership with Greenspark

Every plan you host with us funds tree planting, clean water and carbon projects.

UK cloud hosting services for websites and applications

All our UK cloud hosting services run on the same LiteSpeed and NVMe SSD platform, so this choice is about sizing. Choose a plan by its website count, storage and resource allowance. A brochure site and a busy shop can have similar disk usage but very different CPU and memory demands. Check your application's runtime and background-worker requirements with us before moving it.

For root access, a custom service or guaranteed VPS resources, compare UK VPS hosting. For a managed WordPress workflow, see our WordPress plans. Our cloud hosting guide explains these differences without assuming that every cloud plan works the same way.

FAQ

Cloud hosting FAQs

Want the detail? A real UK person will talk it through.

0333 090 4540
What do I get if I move from another host?
We move your sites over free, and credit the unused time you have left with your current host against your account, up to £100 including VAT per qualifying account. Tell us when you order or within 30 days of going live and we apply the credit once you are live with us. Qualifying plans and the evidence we need are set out in our switch credit terms.
Which apps and frameworks can I run?
More than WordPress. It is a full LiteSpeed PHP platform with multiple PHP versions, Composer, WP-CLI, SSH and Git, plus a Node.js runtime. So it runs WordPress and WooCommerce, Laravel and other PHP frameworks like Symfony, Drupal, Joomla and Magento, Node.js apps, and plain static or HTML sites. Need guaranteed cores and root access? See VPS and servers.
Will you migrate my site for free?
Yes. We move your site across with no downtime on a normal move and test it before going live, at no charge. Got several sites? We can move them all in one scheduled migration.
Is it fast enough for WooCommerce and busy WordPress sites?
Yes. Every plan runs LiteSpeed with LSCache on all-NVMe storage for fast TTFB, which is what busy WordPress and WooCommerce sites need. For a WordPress-tuned, fully-managed setup, see our managed WordPress plans.
What backups are included?
Every plan includes daily off-site backups you can restore from in a couple of clicks. Need more granular cover? Hourly backups with 90-day retention are available on request, priced separately.
Which plan do I need?
Startup suits a single site. Business is our most popular plan for a busy site or a few projects at once. Enterprise gives you more sites and storage, and Max adds priority resources for the busiest sites. Not sure? Ask us and we'll point you to the right one.
Can I host more than one site, and is email included?
Yes. Plans cover from 1 to 10 sites, with unlimited mailboxes and unlimited bandwidth on every tier. Need more sites or root access? Look at reseller or VPS.
How much does UK cloud hosting cost?
Our cloud hosting plans run from £5.99/mo for Startup (1 site, 30 GB NVMe) to £24.99/mo for Max (10 sites, 500 GB, priority resources), so Startup is the cheapest UK hosting option we sell. Every plan includes NVMe storage, free SSL, daily backups, LiteSpeed, a WAF, malware scanning, DDoS protection and free migration, and paying annually charges ten months and gives twelve.
What is cloud hosting, and how is it different from a cloud server?
Cloud hosting here is managed web hosting on cloud servers we run: your site sits in its own container with dedicated resources on AMD EPYC hardware in UK data centres, and we look after the server, the web server, PHP, backups and security. A cloud server, or cloud VPS, is a virtual server of your own with root access, where you manage the operating system yourself. If you want the site hosted and managed, pick a cloud hosting plan. If you want a server to configure, see our UK VPS hosting.
