Hosting in the UK, Now Live
HostWP.io is growing faster than ever, and one thing has become clear from our customer conversations: location matters. As more businesses across Europe and the UK choose HostWP.io for speed, reliability, and real human support, the demand for local infrastructure has surged.
Today, we’re excited to announce a major upgrade:
Our new UK datacenter location is now live and costs the same reasonable price, fully powered by LiteSpeed Enterprise and the latest AMD technology.
This expansion is part of our ongoing commitment to deliver world-class performance, lower latency, and lightning-fast TTFB for users across the United Kingdom and surrounding regions. This server is suitable for running a WooCommerce store, an LMS platform, a content-heavy website, or a business site. Hosting closer to your audience now gives you an even stronger performance edge.
What’s Inside the UK Datacenter, Modern Hardware, Maximum Performance
Our new UK location isn’t just another rack in another facility, it’s built with the same philosophy that drives HostWP.io: premium performance without premium pricing. Every server in this datacenter uses a modern, high-efficiency stack designed to deliver consistently fast response times, even under demanding workloads.
Here’s what powers the new UK servers:
Latest-Generation AMD CPUs
Your WordPress site runs on high-performance, power-efficient AMD processors that have higher clock speeds. These chips are built for heavy workloads, perfect for WooCommerce, membership sites, LMS platforms, forums, high-traffic blogs, and digital businesses that need both speed and stability.
DDR5 RAM for Superior Throughput
We’ve standardized on fast DDR5 memory across the new location. This ensures seamless multitasking, faster caching, and smoother handling of dynamic pages, especially when combined with LiteSpeed Enterprise and Redis Object cache.
NVMe Storage for Sub-Millisecond Reads
Your files, database, and cached content live on enterprise NVMe drives, providing ultra-low-latency disk access for all WordPress sites hosted on UK servers. This is a key contributor to faster page loads and a noticeably snappier backend experience.
LiteSpeed Enterprise Web Server
Every UK server is powered by LiteSpeed Enterprise, known for delivering exceptional speed while keeping resource use low. When combined with LSCache and Redis, it delivers one of the fastest WordPress hosting experiences in the market today.
Built-In Redis Object Cache
Redis comes pre-configured and ready to use, with no extra fees and no technical setup required. Redis dramatically reduces query load and helps maintain peak performance even at scale, and greatly improves WordPress backend performance.
QUIC.cloud CDN Integration
Every website hosted with us gets access to the premium tier of QUIC Cloud, enabling full-page HTML caching, image optimization, and global delivery for WordPress sites using LSCache. With this, even international traffic performs exceptionally well.
100% Human Support, Always Available
No chatbots. No complicated funnels.
You get real WordPress-trained humans who help you through free WordPress website migrations, performance tuning, and issues whenever you need them.
Why We Added a UK Location, Driven by Customer Demand
As HostWP.io continues to grow, one thing has become clear: customers love the performance of our LiteSpeed Enterprise stack, and they want it closer to their audiences. Over the past year, we’ve seen a significant increase in demand from users in the UK and across Europe who need lower latency, better SEO signals, and consistent performance for their local visitors.
Instead of expanding just for the sake of it, we follow a simple rule:
Add new locations only when they truly improve customer experience.
And that’s precisely why the UK datacenter is now live.
Listening to Our Customers
Many of our UK and EU customers told us:
- They wanted data residency within the UK.
- Their visitors mostly came from London, Manchester, Birmingham, and the surrounding regions.
- They needed even faster TTFB and page load performance for local traffic.
- They preferred a hosting provider focused on LiteSpeed Enterprise instead of generic cPanel or shared hosting setups.
- They wanted a reliable alternative to expensive, oversold managed hosting platforms.
We took this feedback seriously and built a location that solves all of it.
Designed for Real-World WordPress Needs
Launching a UK presence means:
- Better TTFB for local visitors
- Faster dynamic page loads for WooCommerce, LMS, communities, and portals
- Stronger SEO signals when targeting UK search markets
- Reduced latency for admin users working from the UK
- Improved uptime and reliability thanks to our high-performance infrastructure
This expansion reflects the trust our customers place in us and our commitment to growing with them, not ahead of them.
UK TTFB Performance Real Benchmark Results
Launching a new location is only meaningful if the performance backs it up, and our UK datacenter does exactly that with LiteSpeed Enterprise, AMD EPYC processors, DDR5 memory, NVMe storage, and QUIC.Cloud CDN integration, the TTFB numbers speak for themselves.
What We Tested
To ensure accurate results, we measured TTFB from multiple UK-based endpoints using a live WordPress client site install on our new UK servers. The tests were performed using:
- A live client WordPress environment
- LiteSpeed Cache is enabled with the default recommended settings
- No Quic Cloud CDN deployed yet.
- Latest PHP 8 version
The Results (FlyingTTFB)
- London TTFB: 6 ms
- US TTFB: Less than 150ms
- EU TTFB: less than 50ms
These numbers are not typical shared hosting results; this is the performance advantage of running WordPress on a LiteSpeed Enterprise environment built on top-tier hardware.
What This Means for Your WordPress Site
- Instant-feeling page loads for UK-based users
- Significant improvements in Core Web Vitals, especially LCP and FID
- Better WooCommerce and membership site performance, even during high-traffic periods
- More consistent uptime and responsiveness, even when running cron jobs, imports, or heavy queries
- Faster backend/admin panel performance, especially noticeable for local teams
Your website doesn’t just “load faster,” it works faster.
A Faster, More Local HostWP.io Experience for the UK

With LiteSpeed Enterprise, Redis Object Cache, NVMe storage, DDR5 RAM, and the latest AMD-powered servers now available in the UK, businesses can run faster, more efficient, and more resilient websites right where their audience is.
