HOSTING
Through advice on secure, high-performance and affordable hosting
We do not operate our own servers. Instead, we advise you on the hosting solution you require, taking into account the specific requirements of your application. In doing so, we place particular importance on striking a good balance between price and performance. We also place great importance on a modern infrastructure and technologies that are always up to date. For example, when it comes to WordPress, Laravel and other PHP applications, we consider the latest versions of PHP, MySQL and Apache/Nginx to be vital for high levels of security and performance.
We provide hosting solutions for businesses of all sizes
Of course, we don’t just advise you on the best solution – we implement it directly for your application. We have already deployed everything from simple shared hosting to dedicated, horizontally scalable applications. For small applications, we rely on Uberspace or 1&1 Hosting. For large-scale solutions, we usually use AWS (Amazon Web Services) or, in rarer cases, Microsoft Azure or Google Cloud. For larger applications that can scale horizontally automatically, we use Docker to deliver the same performance using significantly fewer resources.
What else we offer:
SSL: Encryption of data transmission using SSL certificates for the ‘s’ in https
.htaccess: Redirecting old URI structures, headers for browser-side caching, and much more.
Caching: Varnish for HTML caching or Memcached / Redis for in-application caching
As a full-service agency, we don’t leave you to it once we’ve carried out our analysis. We’ll continue to support you through the implementation of the optimisation measures: whether it’s creating new advertising copy, graphics or programming – no problem at all for us!
Thanks to our many years of experience, we have been able to develop a rigorous strategy comprising measures that actually make a difference. Through comprehensive tracking of user behaviour and numerous A/B tests, we have so far been able to significantly increase the conversion rate on every website.
Conversion optimisation doesn’t have to be expensive! Following a free initial consultation, we’ll provide you with a bespoke quote tailored to your needs.

Web Hosting FAQ
What is web hosting?
Web hosting refers to the process whereby a website is stored on a provider’s servers and made accessible via the internet. The provider supplies storage space, a server connection and other services to make the website available online. There are various types of web hosting, depending on the website’s requirements.
How does web hosting work?
Web hosting works by storing a website on a web hosting provider’s servers. The website’s files and databases are uploaded, and the web host makes them available via the internet. The website is then accessible online via a unique domain name. The web hosting provider takes care of the server connection, security and other support services.
What types of web hosting are there?
There are various types of web hosting, including shared hosting, VPS (Virtual Private Server), dedicated servers and cloud hosting. Each type offers different resources, scalability and levels of control. The choice depends on the specific requirements of the website.
How do I choose the right web host for my website?
When choosing the right web host for your website, you should bear the following points in mind:
-Determine your requirements in terms of storage space, bandwidth, scalability and technical specifications.
-Check the web host’s reliability, availability and performance.
-Ensure that security measures such as firewalls and SSL certificates are in place.
-Make sure the web host offers good customer support.
- Compare the prices and contract terms of different providers.
-Consider the user-friendliness of the hosting platform.
What are the costs associated with web hosting?
The cost of web hosting varies depending on the type of hosting and the provider chosen. Shared hosting is usually the most cost-effective option, whilst VPS, dedicated servers and cloud hosting can be more expensive. Additional features such as SSL certificates or domain registration may add to the cost. It is important to compare different providers and consider the costs in relation to the features on offer.
How can I move my website to a different web host?
To move your website to a different web host, follow these steps:
Create a backup of your website files and databases.
Choose a new web host and set up a hosting account with them.
Upload your files to the new web host’s server.
Export your database from your old web host and import it to your new web host.
Adjust your domain’s DNS settings so that they point to the new web host.
Check that your website is working properly on the new web host.
Cancel your old hosting account with your previous web host.
It is advisable to make use of the technical support or tutorials provided by your new web host to ensure a smooth migration.
How can I improve the speed and performance of my hosted website?
To improve the speed and performance of your website, you can take the following steps:
-Optimise your images and use compressed formats.
-Implement caching techniques and use a Content Delivery Network (CDN).
-Minify CSS and JavaScript to reduce the file size.
-Keep your software up to date to benefit from performance improvements.
-Check your hosting package and upgrade it if necessary.
-Optimise your database and remove unused data.
-Use a fast DNS provider.
- Monitor website performance and optimise it based on the results.
-Compress your data using GZIP compression.
- Reduce your use of external resources.
-These measures will help you reduce loading times and improve your website’s performance.
How does domain registration work in conjunction with web hosting?
Domain registration and web hosting are two separate but interlinked processes. When you register a domain, you acquire a unique internet address for your website, whilst web hosting provides the storage space and resources needed to make your website accessible online. You will need to change your domain’s DNS settings to connect it to your web host’s server and host your website under your domain.
