City brief · Frankfurt

Hosting arranged for the Frankfurt market

Quick, dependable hosting for businesses in Frankfurt — the ending locals recognise, delivery tuned to the audience you actually have, and engineers answering every hour the city trades.

The short answer

A Frankfurt business wants three things from hosting: pages that arrive quickly for its real audience, the ending locals trust (.de), and uptime that holds day and night — and none of the three needs a server inside the city limits.

Hosting & Domains gives Frankfurt businesses NVMe hosting behind LiteSpeed caching, free SSL, the move done for you and people on support at every hour — at flat rates that never ask where you log in from.

Setup fees

The European Central Bank, the exchange, and the largest concentration of banking supervision on the continent, with DE-CIX, the busiest internet exchange on earth, humming away in the same skyline. Trade fairs fill the hotels several times a year and empty them again just as quickly.

This page is written for that market exactly — the hosting its businesses genuinely need, the ending that wins local trust, and an honest word on distance against speed.

Winning trade online in Frankfurt

The trades this market runs on — banking and capital markets, corporate law and management consulting, trade fairs and congresses and payments and regtech — different trades, the same web fundamentals — pages that open at once on a phone, enquiries that arrive intact, and uptime that never lets the side down.

What links them is the look-up moment — a customer, a client or a procurement panel opening your site right when it counts. This page exists so that moment passes without incident, every single time.

The name worth registering in Frankfurt

The ending that wins local orders is .de. German clients arrive at Frankfurt's banks, law firms and consultancies through .de credibility, with .com kept live for the international desk. In a compliance-heavy market the domain is one more box that ought to tick itself.

Take it alongside the hosting and the wiring sorts itself: DNS aligned in advance, SSL issued on connection, mail live at the name from the first day. If the name already sits elsewhere, transferring it in is equally routine.

Latency, answered honestly

Hardly any city on earth is better connected, and the London-to-Frankfurt path is among the densest we use. Cached delivery arrives without fuss, which is exactly what a finance client expects.

Engineering counts for more than geography here: cached pages are assembled in advance and travel light, so what a visitor feels comes down to the platform — disk speed, cache design, how quickly PHP can build a page — far more than to distance. That is precisely where we have over-invested.

The hardware your reputation rests on

Nobody notices reliability until it goes, which is why we hold a 99.9% uptime target, monitor without a break, copy the account daily and keep people on support at every hour. To a business in Frankfurt, that is infrastructure doing marketing's job without being asked.

A free SSL certificate comes with every plan and reissues itself before the old one lapses — the padlock is never yours to diarise.

Why Frankfurt firms keep their sites with us

What every market we serve asks for is the same, Frankfurt included: make the site quick, keep it up, keep it protected, and then leave the owner alone to run the business. That is the entire product.

The rate you register at is the rate you renew at, so year two costs precisely what year one did — nothing lying in wait on the invoice.

  • .de registered and renewed alongside the plan
  • Cached pages that stay quick at distance
  • SSL free, the move free, set-up free
  • Engineers on shift whatever your timezone

Why Hosting & Domains

Standard on every plan

One USD price, wherever you invoice from

Billing runs in USD at a rate that renews as it stands, which means next year's hosting line is a number your accounts already hold.

Support that works your hours

Engineers are on shift around the clock — a first reply within two hours, within one when a site is down, whatever the hour is in Frankfurt.

Uptime with a figure behind it

We hold a 99.9% uptime target and put a pro-rated credit back on the account if a month falls short — a figure you can quote in a tender, not a slogan.

One account for the name and the hosting

Your .de sits on the same account as the hosting, registered, pointed and renewed there, with DNS aimed correctly before anybody has to ask.

Quick on the connection buyers actually have

With LiteSpeed caching over NVMe storage the page exists before the request arrives, whether that request comes from a phone in Frankfurt traffic, a desk, or a procurement laptop.

The move billed at nothing

Hosted elsewhere today? The whole site comes across free of charge, carried by our engineers, serving visitors the entire time, and DNS only moves once you have signed it off.

Quick Start

Order placed to site online

  1. 1

    Get the name registered

    Register .de or transfer an existing name in — it is the ending locals believe in, and year one is free on qualifying annual plans.

  2. 2

    Start clean, or bring the site across

    Starting fresh: one evening with the installer, or with the Website Builder. Existing site: one migration request and roughly a day while we do the rest.

  3. 3

    Publish it, then stay published

    SSL issues itself, the copy is taken nightly, and caching keeps pages quick for the audience that counts — while you go back to running the business.

Frequently Asked

The questions that come up most

What do we give a diligence team asking about web infrastructure?

A short pack: certificates on every hostname, English-law terms with a UK-registered counterparty, the 99.9% availability commitment and its pro-rated credit, two-factor authentication, nightly backups and a written account of how data is handled. Send the questionnaire itself and we complete it.

Our traffic multiplies during trade-fair weeks — should we worry?

Messe traffic caches well, since the company profiles visitors skim between halls serve pre-built and never reach the database. Your busiest week is the one week the site has to be boring, and caching is what keeps it that way.

What happens when I outgrow the plan?

You upgrade in place. Plan changes are made from the client area with no migration and no downtime, and the range runs from small shared accounts through VPS to full dedicated machines. Growth becomes a setting on the account rather than a search for a new host.

Where does the hardware physically sit?

The platform runs from a London datacentre with redundant power, cooling and several upstream carriers, with server-level caching in front that keeps cached pages quick for visitors anywhere. For most sites how the platform is built — NVMe disks, LiteSpeed, restrained account density per machine — counts for far more than where it sits.

Changing hosts? Run through our checklist first.

A plain order of work for a move nobody visiting will notice: which files go over first, how to carry the mail across without losing a message, when exactly to repoint DNS, and the two mistakes behind nearly every outage we are asked to rescue.

What arrives is the checklist, and then the occasional note on keeping a site quick. Leave whenever you like; the privacy policy covers the rest.

Your site has earned better hosting.

Free SSL, a free migration, renewals billed at the original rate, and people on support around the clock. That is the whole of it.
