📄 Editorial Review

Hostworld is a UK-based hosting provider operated by Hostworld Internet Limited, a private limited company incorporated in England and Wales on 5 March 2022 under company number 13957621. The company is connected with Darren James Summers, listed at Companies House as director and person with significant control. Hostworld also expanded its customer base through the Calico Internet service acquisition, with services transferred under Hostworld Internet Limited from 16 December 2022.

The company is focused on practical hosting services for individuals, small businesses, agencies, developers, traders, and resellers. Their portfolio includes domain registration, cPanel web hosting, WordPress hosting, website builder hosting, reseller hosting, VPS reseller packages, Linux VPS, Windows VPS / RDP, dedicated servers, Linux remote desktop VPS, Forex VPS, VPN services, and web design & development.

The shared hosting range is built around cPanel, CloudLinux, LiteSpeed, free SSL certificates, daily backups through JetBackup, Imunify360 malware protection, free migration, and unlimited bandwidth. Their WordPress plans follow a similar structure while adding WordPress-focused features such as WP Toolkit, automatic updates, CDN options, malware scanning, and WordPress support. For customers who want a faster site-building process, the website builder plans include an AI drag-and-drop editor, e-commerce readiness, templates, multilingual support, and import tools for moving from builders such as Wix, Squarespace, or Weebly.

For server customers, Hostworld has a broad VPS range. Their Linux VPS plans use NVMe storage, KVM virtualization, full root access, IPv4, weekly backups, DDoS protection for UK services, and a 1 Gbps shared uplink. Windows VPS plans include Windows Server licensing options, RDP access, full administrator control, weekly backups, and availability in London and New York. Their VPS Reseller packages allow customers to provision multiple Linux or Windows virtual machines through Virtualizor, making them suitable for agencies and smaller hosting businesses that want to resell VPS resources without building their own infrastructure.

The company also provides several specialized services. Forex VPS packages are designed for MT4 and MT5 trading terminals, with pinned CPU cores, NVMe storage, low-latency UK hosting, and a 99.9% uptime guarantee. Linux Remote Desktop VPS is a lower-cost alternative to Windows RDP for browsing, development, and always-on tasks. The VPN service includes 53 global locations, support for up to 10 devices, OpenVPN/IKEv2/L2TP protocols, unlimited usage, P2P support, and a no-logs policy.

Hostworld operates in English, with pricing primarily shown in GBP. The client portal also supports GBP, EUR, and USD, which is useful for international customers.
