Welcome to Ecological Hosting

The UK's Premier Green & Environmentally Friendly Hosting Company

Ecological Hosting is an ethically run, reliable and responsible Internet hosting company. We are a friendly, family run business providing services with a personal touch.

Our hosting environment operates from two data centres, one in California running on solar power with a solar panel array capable of generating upto sixty kilowatt-hours of electricity each day, and one in the UK running on grid supplied Ecotricity generated wind power.

We were the first and for a long while the only UK company (to our knowledge) offering hosting based in a data centre facility powered entirely by solar energy.

With low starting prices, there really is no reason to ignore your conscience. Make the switch today and help protect our environment.
