Our platform
LiteSpeed and all-NVMe storage on AMD EPYC hardware, containerised sites with dedicated resources, kept secure and online in UK data centres. The same fast engineering under every plan, looked after by a UK team.
The stack
We build the platform for performance first, then keep it secure and online. Here is what powers every site we host, on the entry plan and the largest alike.
It all ships as standard. See which plan includes what.
Speed
LiteSpeed with LSCache serves pages straight from cache, all-NVMe storage keeps the database quick, and AMD EPYC processors do the heavy lifting. The result is fast TTFB and better Core Web Vitals, on every plan, without a single upsell.

Hardware & infrastructure
Modern hardware, not oversold boxes. Premium NVMe storage on AMD EPYC processors, with your site containerised so its resources are its own.
Flash storage on every plan, so database queries and page loads are not held up waiting on slow disks.
High-core-count EPYC silicon for fast page builds, with more performance per watt than older hardware.
Each site runs in its own container with its own CPU and memory allocation, so a busy neighbour cannot slow you down.
LiteSpeed with LSCache built in, serving cached pages in a fraction of the time of a stock Apache stack.
No metering on traffic. Your site stays responsive on the day traffic is twenty times its usual.
Three Tier 3 UK data centres, so your data stays in the UK, close to your audience and under UK rules.
Footprint
Your sites spread across them

Security & backups
Security ships on by default, not as an add-on you have to find. We harden the platform and keep recent copies of your site off-site, so you are covered as standard.
A web application firewall sits in front of your site, filtering common attacks before they reach it.
We scan for malware and flag anything suspicious, so an infection is caught early rather than left to spread.
100Gbps of always-on mitigation upstream of our network, on every plan at no extra cost. More on that below.
SSL certificates issued and renewed automatically for every domain, on every package, at no extra cost.
Backups taken daily, kept off-site for 30 days and away from your live site.
Your site is contained with its own resources, so a problem on a neighbouring site stays on that site.
Backups run daily and are kept off-site for 30 days. Compare the plans.
DDoS protection
Filtering runs upstream of our network, 24 hours a day, on every plan. There is nothing to switch on and nothing to add to your bill. We are alerted the moment an attack starts.

Filtering is already running when an attack begins, so there is no window where you are waiting for it to be switched on. The first you hear about it is usually us telling you it happened.

Uptime & reliability
Plenty of hosts promise uptime. We measure ours and publish it on a live status page. If we miss the commitment, we pay out service credits.
Round-the-clock monitoring on every server, and a public status page so you can always see how things are running.
An uptime commitment written into your contract, with service credits if we miss it.
If we fall short of that commitment, you get credit back. We carry the cost of an off day, not you.

UK support
Hardware can be bought. A team that picks up and sorts the problem cannot. Every plan has real UK support, 24/7, with faster response targets and more ways to reach us as you scale.
Tickets and live chat with our UK team.

Green hosting
The same efficient AMD EPYC hardware that makes the platform fast also draws less power per site. We run it on green energy, and fund tree planting, clean water projects and carbon projects through Greenspark.
We think web hosting can make a difference, and we're doing our part.
In partnership with Greenspark
Every plan you host with us funds tree planting, clean water and carbon projects.
