Linux Web Hosting UK

Reliable cPanel Linux hosting on UK-based SSD servers — with free SSL, daily backups, unlimited bandwidth and expert support included as standard.

Linux hosting remains the most widely used and best-supported server environment for websites. Powered by cPanel — the industry-standard hosting control panel — our Linux hosting plans give you a reliable, flexible platform suitable for WordPress sites, PHP applications, Statamic, and most standard business websites.

We host all our Linux sites on 20i's UK-based infrastructure. 20i are one of the UK's leading hosting providers, offering SSD storage, LiteSpeed web servers, built-in CDN and a platform that consistently outperforms the budget shared hosting providers that many businesses are still stuck on. The difference in load time — and in day-to-day reliability — is noticeable.

Unlike dealing with a large hosting provider directly, when you host with us you have a single point of contact who knows your site. We handle the technical side — server configuration, SSL setup, email account creation, migrations and any issues that arise — so you can focus on running your business. There are no tickets going into a void, no offshore support teams, just straightforward help from people who know what they're doing.

What's Included

What You Get

cPanel Control Panel

Industry-standard cPanel gives you full control over your hosting environment — file manager, databases, email accounts, DNS management and one-click installers all in one place.

SSD Storage & LiteSpeed

All sites run on SSD storage with LiteSpeed web server technology, delivering significantly faster page loads than traditional Apache shared hosting.

Free SSL Certificates

Free Let's Encrypt SSL certificates are installed and auto-renewed for every domain on your account. Your site serves over HTTPS from day one, with no ongoing cost.

Daily Automated Backups

Automated daily backups are taken and stored off-site. If something goes wrong, we can restore your site to a previous point with minimal disruption.

Multiple PHP Versions

Choose from multiple PHP versions to match your application's requirements. Switch between versions instantly from cPanel without any downtime.

Email Hosting Included

Professional email addresses on your domain are included with every plan. Set up unlimited mailboxes, forwarders and autoresponders, accessible via webmail or any email client.

SSH & SFTP Access

Full SSH and SFTP access for developers who need it. Deploy code, run scripts and manage files securely from the command line.

One-Click App Installs

Install WordPress, Joomla, Drupal and dozens of other applications with a single click via Softaculous — no manual database setup required.

MySQL Databases & phpMyAdmin

Create and manage MySQL databases directly from cPanel, with phpMyAdmin available for direct database management when you need it.

UK-Based Servers

All hosting is on UK-based servers, ensuring fast load times for UK visitors and full GDPR compliance with no data leaving the country.

Managed on Your Behalf

You don't need to understand server management. We handle the technical side — SSL renewals, server software updates, security patching — and only contact you when we need something from you.

One Provider for Everything

If we built your website, we can host it too. One provider for design, development, hosting and support means no ambiguity about who's responsible when something needs attention.
