Smarter Hosting Solutions
Smarthost offers reliable, secure, and scalable hosting solutions to help your business grow.
Innovative hosting solutions that are fast, secure, and easy to use, so you can focus on running your business.
High-Performance Platform
Powered by Amazon AWS
We run our web hosting services on Amazon Web Services (AWS), which is the most comprehensive and widely adopted cloud platform in the world. AWS provides premium availability and reliability, as well as one of the fastest networks available. We use distributed SSD storage for multiple redundancies, ensuring that your website and applications are always up and running.
- Blazing Fast CDN
Our cloud CDN service allows websites to run with blazing speed, caching their content on multiple servers across the globe and delivering it from the closest location to each visitor. It comes with an easy one-click set up, smart defaults and simple on/off management of key features.
LiteSpeed
Enhance your website’s performance with Smarthost’s innovative LiteSpeed technology. This powerful web server technology delivers exceptional speed, scalability, and security, ensuring your website loads quickly and flawlessly for every visitor.
Brotli Compression
SmartHost is proud to offer Brotli compression. Brotli is a powerful tool that can significantly enhance your website’s speed, reduce data usage, and conserve device battery life. Brotli compression is already enabled on all SmartHost hosting plans, so you can start enjoying the benefits right away.
- Ultrafast PHP
We developed a custom PHP implementation that significantly cuts the TTFB (time to first byte) and makes your pages load 30% faster on average. Our new PHP has lower memory usage and allows the server to process a bigger number of queries faster.
Security-First Approach
- Boost Your Protection With Site Scanner
Site Scanner is our early warning malware detection system that regularly checks your website for domain blacklisting and other malicious software. Daily reports are available in the interface and immediate notifications are sent if a threat is detected, so you can have a peace of mind for your website’s safety and focus on what’s important – your business.
- Comprehensive WordPress Security Plugin
Meet our Security plugin – an all-inclusive, free plugin that protects your WordPress website from common hacks, bruteforce attacks, and malware. It’s a must-have for clients and non-clients alike.
- Geographically Distributed Backups
We launched geographically distributed backups that minimize the risk of data loss and аllows for fast data recovery even in case of a serious incident that may affect a whole data center.
- Powerful AI Anti-Bot
Each hour our AI antibot system blocks between 500 000 and 2 million brute-force attempts across all our servers. We not only prevent potential unauthorized logins, but also manage to save an enormous amount of server resources.
Friendly Client Area & Control Panel
We have built our own account management software to guarantee an outstanding user experience and efficiency of operations on our platform. All our tools aim for maximum simplicity and efficiency that save you time. They follow the same style guide to ensure a unified and consistent experience.
Sophisticated Collaboration Tools
Whether you are an agency building sites, a business client or a blogger, we have made it really easy for you to add experts on your team and manage your workflow. You can use our collaboration tools to have several people work on one site, easily transfer a website to a client, or even resell and manage white-label hosting service.
Exclusive Tools for WordPress
Since the large majority of our clients use WordPress, we have invested extra effort into building automations and management solutions for them such as the WordPress Migrator plugin to help transfer sites easily, the WP Starter to get a theme and essential plugins installed, as well as the staging tool that creates a copy of your live site in a sec and more.
Automatic Scaling on Cloud
We develop unique technologies that facilitate our clients in building and managing their websites. Start with our in-house developed site control panel and go through a wide range of tools for WordPress and other users such as the WordPress Starter, WP Migrator, the staging tool and more.
