We have more than 20 years of experience
For over two decades, we have been building and refining hosting services that small businesses and individuals can rely on.What that experience means: a hosting platform that has earned its reliability the hard way, and a team that does not panic when something needs attention.
Privately owned, founder-run
APlusHosting has no outside investors and no debt on the books. The founders, who each bring nearly three decades in web hosting, still run the company and still make the decisions. That means we answer to our customers, not to a board chasing the next quarterly target.
Hosting websites since the late 1990s
We have been doing this for more than two decades, which is unusual in an industry where many companies come and go in five years. Hundreds of thousands of websites have lived on our platform over that time, and many of them are still with us.
We invest where it counts
The money other companies spend on flashy marketing campaigns, we put into hardware, network capacity, and the engineers who keep the platform healthy. That is what lets us keep prices fair year after year.
Our people stay
Most of our engineers and support staff have been with us for years, some for over a decade. That continuity means the person you reach when something needs attention has likely seen the issue before, and quite possibly built the part of the platform that is involved.
We keep showing up, year after year, for the people who built their businesses with us.
We built our own cloud, ColossusCloud
Years in the making, and the platform every APlusHosting website now runs on
We built ColossusCloud because we got tired of renting cloud capacity from someone else, and being at the mercy of their pricing and outages. After years of running our own data center hardware, we packaged what we had learned into a true cloud platform that the whole company now runs on.
Every APlusHosting website you see today is powered by ColossusCloud. We own the hardware, we run the software, and we improve the platform every day. There are no middlemen between you and the people responsible for keeping it online.
To reach corners of the world where running our own hardware would not make sense yet, our web hosting platform will also run on top of leading global providers such as Amazon Web Services, Digital Ocean, Vultr, Google Cloud, and others.
That combination gives our customers the best of both: the cost and control of our own platform where it makes sense, and worldwide reach where it matters.
