Choosing where your site is hosted

Which data centres you can pick for each kind of hosting, where you pick it, and why the list can change.

You choose the data centre when you create a site or order a server. The choice is yours on every hosting line we sell, and the list you see is always the live one.

Where you choose

A new website (WordPress, WooCommerce, Web & PHP, applications, Developer, AI and LMS hosting, Agency and Reseller plans). On the new-site screen, the location list shows only the cities where our own fleet has room for a site on that plan today. Pick the one nearest your visitors. Leaving it on the default places the site in Europe.

A free trial. A trial site is created the same way, from the same live list for its plan.

A VPS or private cloud server. Each size lists the cities it is sold in, and you pick one when you order. Larger sizes are sold in more cities than the smallest ones.

Footprint-Free hosting. You do not choose: we place each site for you, which is part of how the service works.

Why the list can change

A city appears the moment we have a server there with room for a new site, and drops off while every server there is full. Nothing is ever offered that cannot be delivered, so the list on your screen is always the truthful one, and the product pages on our website show the same live list.

Can I move a site to another city later?

The location is set when the site is created. If you need a site somewhere else, open a ticket and our team will tell you what is possible for that site.
