📄 Editorial Review

123-Reg is a UK-based hosting and domain company founded in 2000 by Tim and Jonathan Brealey, the same entrepreneurs who had earlier established Webfusion Internet Solutions in 1997. In 2003, both 123 Reg and Webfusion were acquired by Host Europe Group (HEG). A year later, HEG itself was purchased by Pipex Communications for £31.2 million, and during this period 123 Reg grew to become the country’s largest domain registrar. By 2009, HEG restructured its UK operations under the Webfusion Ltd umbrella while maintaining both brand identities. In April 2017, GoDaddy, the American hosting giant, acquired Host Europe Group for €1.69 billion ($1.82 billion), making 123 Reg part of one of the world’s largest domain and hosting providers.

Over the years they have grown into one of the country’s most visible brands in domains and web hosting, claiming millions of domains registered and more than a million sites hosted. Their positioning is straightforward: easy-to-use products, reliable infrastructure, and transparent pricing aimed at individuals and small-to-medium businesses that want to get online with minimal friction.

They present themselves as an eco-conscious operator, highlighting low-energy systems in their data centres and modern hardware stacks (latest-generation Intel CPUs on Dell and HP servers). The broader product catalogue covers domains, email, shared web hosting, managed WordPress hosting, SSL certificates, a drag-and-drop website builder, an online store builder, Microsoft 365, VPS, and a higher-tier "Premium Hosting" line pitched as a managed performance alternative to running a full dedicated environment.
  • Shared/Web Hosting focuses on speed and simplicity, bundling at least one free domain and one website per plan, MySQL databases, unmetered bandwidth (subject to acceptable use), free SSL, daily automated backups, and a cPanel interface.
  • Managed WordPress Hosting adds WP-specific conveniences (staging, core updates, malware scans, Cloudflare CDN, and AI-assisted setup/templates) on infrastructure tuned for WordPress performance and a published 99.9% uptime target.
  • Premium Hosting is a fully managed tier with guaranteed resources (dedicated RAM/CPU), unmetered bandwidth/databases, cPanel, and developer features (SSH, Cron, PHP/Perl). It is positioned as delivering near-VPS/dedicated performance without the admin overhead.
  • VPS Hosting offers four packages with Linux or Windows, unmetered data transfer, full admin/root access (where applicable), current Dell hardware, automated backups, and optional cPanel/WHM or Plesk.
  • Email Hosting includes anti-spam/anti-virus and compatibility with common clients (Outlook, Mac Mail).
  • Website/Store Builder targets non-technical users with templates, drag-and-drop editing, SEO helpers, and optional e-commerce features.

Overall, 123-Reg’s breadth covers entry-level sites through to users who need managed performance or self-managed VPS, all under a UK brand with long market presence.
