What our customers say

What customers mention most: our support team, how quickly issues get resolved, and getting a real person on live chat.

★★★★★

I had a very unpleasant experience with my former host before migrating to Hostking. The support team are very supportive and helpful — they assisted freely to migrate all my websites to their server.

★★★★★

The service is exceptional. They assisted with my database tables — I struggled for two weeks and they helped me resolve my issues in minutes. Super service and a great hosting provider.

★★★★★

Support, support, support! They are so responsive, available on live chat, so knowledgeable and always friendly and helpful. No other host comes close.

★★★★★

Literally the best hosting provider I’ve used. Everything with Hostking is on point — features, accessibility, support, rates. I’m so impressed!

13+ Years Building Hosting Solutions for Businesses

Hostking was founded in 2013 to build a reliable shared hosting platform with genuinely good customer experience. We moved to our own servers in 2015, expanded to EU data centers in 2018, and have grown into a distributed team of 12+ people as of 2024 — still working toward that same original promise.
