We would rather you asked hard questions than read adjectives.
Every host says fast, reliable and supported. None of those words can be checked. Below are the questions that can be, with our answers to each — take the list to whoever you are with now and see how the two columns compare.
See what it costsThe questions, and our answers
| The question | What you get here |
|---|---|
| Is a certificate included on every website and every mail domain, and renewed automatically? | Yes, on every plan. You will not get the expiry email, because there will not be one. |
| How long are backups kept, and can I restore one myself? | Fourteen days, and yes — it is a button in the panel. You do not open a ticket and wait, which is the moment you least want to be waiting. |
| Are the backups ever tested? | They are replayed on a schedule, so they are known to work before the day you need one. |
| Does my site share CPU with the busiest site on the machine? | No. Each website is its own container with its own CPU and memory, so a neighbour's bad afternoon runs into their ceiling rather than yours. |
| Can I edit every DNS record type myself? | Yes, each with its real fields rather than one text box to format by hand. DNSSEC is a single switch, and a change that fails to push is shown as pending rather than as saved. |
| Are mailboxes included, and is deliverability set up before I send? | Included on every hosting plan, with SPF, DKIM, DMARC and MTA-STS in place before the first message rather than after somebody's reply bounces. |
| How far back can I look at what my site was doing? | Ninety days, per site, sampled every minute — CPU, memory, bandwidth and disk. A slow week is something you look at rather than argue about. |
| How many logins and how many bills is this? | One of each. Websites, DNS, mailboxes, databases, cloud servers and AI endpoints are the same panel and the same invoice. |
| Who am I actually talking to when the platform is the problem? | The people who wrote it. We run our own hosting on our own software, so a platform bug is a release rather than a ticket raised with somebody else. |
| What does paying annually actually save? | Two months. Ten months for twelve, on every product in the catalogue, and both figures are on the plan's page before you order. |
The three that matter most
What changes on the day something goes wrong.
Everything in the table above is true and checkable. These three are the ones you feel, and all three are the same kind of thing: a decision about where a boundary sits, made before you needed it to be in the right place.
Isolation is per website, not per account
The usual problem with shared hosting is that someone else's busy afternoon becomes yours. Here every site — yours and theirs — is an unprivileged container with its own CPU, memory and processes. A neighbour runs into their own ceiling instead of yours, and a compromise of one site does not reach the next.
You restore your own backup
Daily, kept fourteen days, written off the machine they protect, and replayed on a schedule so they are known to work. Restoring one is a button rather than a ticket, which matters because the entire value of a backup is how quickly you can use it.
You change your own DNS
Every record type with its real fields, in the same panel as the site and the mail. No ticket and no twenty-four hour wait — the change reaches our nameservers straight away, and what you actually wait for is other people's caches. A change that fails says pending rather than showing a tick.
The other half of being straight with you
Things we have decided not to say.
A page like this is usually where the unverifiable claims go. These are the ones we have left out on purpose, because leaving them out is the only honest version.
No uptime percentage
Not because ours is bad, but because a figure nobody outside the company can audit is decoration. What we will be held to is written in the service level agreement, where it means something.
No unlimited anything
Every plan says how many websites, how much disk and how many mailboxes. The alternative is a fair-use clause you meet for the first time on the day it is enforced.
No domain prices yet
Registration is not open here and no ending carries a price we have set, so there is not one on the site. The DNS half is ready today and is priced.
No first tier of support
There is no one whose job is to ask you to clear your cache and then pass you on. A ticket reaches the people who run the platform, with your services already attached to it.
No customer logos
We are not going to print a wall of them, and you should be suspicious of any that appear without a story attached. Ask us for a reference instead and we will arrange one or tell you we cannot.
No version list that goes stale
Runtime versions and extensions change as they are released and retired, so several pages here tell you to ask rather than publishing a list that quietly stops being true.
Already hosted somewhere else
Which almost everyone is. The move is rehearsed on a temporary address and compared against the original before anything points here, and it happens on an evening you choose.
Take the list to your current host.
If they answer it as well as we do, stay where you are — moving is work and loyalty is worth something. If they do not, the answers above are all orderable today.
