Where’s the catch?

We know it sounds too good to be true…but there’s a reason why we offer our hosting for free.

In the end, we’re a business. So we give away our hosting in the hope that it might lead to you spending with us, if your website is a success. It’s as simple as that.

It’s like an unlimited free trial of our high-spec, high speed hosting. If your site expands and becomes popular, you can upgrade to one of our Web HostingWordPress Hosting or Managed Hosting packages, which offer more freedom and resources.

You will need a domain name. You can transfer one over to us or search for a new domain now, priced from $6.99/year.

Anyone for free web hosting?

We don’t put any limits on who can use our hosting. It’s open to all – for zero pence!

  • Charity web hosting

    The best web hosting for small charities. Host your site for free so more money goes straight to the cause.

  • Free blog hosting

    More people are seeing the benefit of having the control and freedom you get through a personal blog.

  • Small business web hosting

    We allow commercial use. So, for a startup or small business it makes sense to have free, PCI-compliant UK hosting for your website.

  • Personal web hosting

    You might want to use our free hosting for a portfolio or CV site? Or a private password-protected online presence for your family and friends.

  • One limit: your imagination

    You can create any kind of website with our free apps. Such as forums, bulletin boards, radio sites, school materials, test projects - it’s up to you.

A hosting service from GrafixHost

Your free hosting will be on the same high-performance platform as our paid plans.

Global CDN

Our free GrafixHost Content Delivery Network caches your content at data centres around the world.

Autoscaling servers

We created a new kind of autoscaling, so your site gets the power it needs – however busy it gets.

Optimised PHP

Our custom code makes every website load faster. We aren’t subject to the limits imposed by old-school hosting.

Load balancing

Our reputation for rock-solid server uptime is built on our innovative load balancing features.

MyGrafix control panel

MyGrafix free control panel makes website management a breeze. Manage files, set up databases and emails, register domains or install free software. 

Google DNS

We use the best technology available from Google to translate domain names through the Domain Name System (DNS).

Your favourite website app is one click away

You can choose from 80+ popular free apps that will enhance your website, whether your site is a shop, a blog, a forum or anything else. Install them in seconds!

What you don’t get

In the interests of full disclosure, here are the things that aren’t included with our free web hosting services:

  • SUBDOMAINS

    You can’t create subdomains for your site, such as blog.your-domain.com or shop.your-domain.com

  • WEBSITE BUILDER

    Our drag-and-drop website builder is off limits. You still get access to 80+ free website tools - including CMS like WordPress and Drupal - which can be installed in one click.

  • SSH ACCESS

    Secure Shell network access is needed for server admin tasks or to install complex scripts. Most websites won’t need it.

  • FULL TECHNICAL SUPPORT

    GrafixHost’s legendary customer support isn’t available for everyday needs. You do still get access to our comprehensive support database, starter guides and ‘how to’ videos. If something critical goes wrong, you can still speak to our team.

  • WORDPRESS TOOLS

    Our suite of features for WordPress staging and management is only available on our managed WordPress hosting packages. You’ll still get full access to all the same features that come with a standard WordPress install.

    Otherwise, you get the same features as our paid packages, subject to the limits stated above.
