Why Hostaan?
A system refined over 20+ years of experience
We use the best tools available - Plesk, WordPress Toolkit, and other proven, industry-standard solutions - but we don't leave them on their default settings. Our core team has refined this combination over 20+ years of experience: we simply know how to keep your site running and solve technical problems quickly.

- Our own tuned fail2ban and ModSecurity firewall rules
- Our own server monitoring and AI-assisted support, around the clock
Server Environment
Fast, European cloud infrastructure, always under GDPR
Unlike many international providers, our customers' services always run within Europe, on UpCloud and Hetzner data centers, always under EU GDPR law. NVMe speed and automatic redundancy come standard with every plan.

- NVMe drives and automatic redundancy by default

Monitoring
Problems are often solved before they become real issues
Our monitoring system continuously checks every key metric on all of our servers, around the clock. An anomaly reaches an on-call responder within a couple of minutes.
- Reachability, web, database and email are monitored continuously
- Anomalies are caught and fixed, often before they can affect your site
- A public status page shows our servers' real-time status
Security
Protected and backed up, in multiple layers
ImunifyAV+ scans every one of our web hosting plans regularly for malware, and your data is backed up multiple times daily and weekly.

How we work
Great team spirit shows up directly in the quality of our service
We support each other in solving problems, but we also give everyone room to take ownership of their own work. To us, our customers are ultimately our bosses - work gets done promptly, carefully and expertly, without delay. We're always looking for motivated, committed, eager-to-learn people to join us - everyone here is a member of the team, not a replaceable part of the machine.
