One of the things we love to do here at Green Hosting is shout about our clients because, wow, they're amazing!
Take a look at our Clients page and you will see individuals, businesses and non-profits all working to do good for people and the planet. We have social charities, conservation groups, sustainable fashion companies, conscious lifestyle bloggers, ethical marketing brands, cruelty-free & organic skincare producers, fairtrade jewellers, artists, educators and so, so much more.
If you want to make your website kinder to the planet by switching to Green Hosting, you can see you're in good company.
Here are a couple of lovely messages we received from our happy customers too. Head over to our Clients page to read more:
"I switched to Green Hosting a week ago now, and I honestly feel it’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made."
Francesca Willow
Ethical Unicorn
"I'm really impressed with the service I received from Green Hosting. I was nervous about moving my site over in case anything got lost or broken but they guided me through the whole process, answered all my questions in plain English and kept me updated at every stage. They handled the whole switch over for me and it went smoothly. Not only have they made my site more sustainable but it's actually much faster now too!"
Sian Conway
Ethical Hour
"As always a great service from you. I have recommended you a number of times and will continue to do so. Not very often you get such fantastic service these days.....big pat on the back to the Green Hosting Team. I'm a very satisfied customer."

Great news! Green Hosting is now listed in the Green Web Foundation's international directory of hosting companies using renewable energy AND we are a Green Web Foundation Partner too. We have gained partner status due to our ethical and environmental policies published on our website.
The Green Web Foundation is a non-profit organisation working hard towards an internet powered entirely by renewable energy and checks every members' green credentials before listing them on their website. They provide an online tool to check whether websites measure up as Green (powered by renewable energy) or Grey (powered by fossil fuels or status unknown). If your website checks out as being green you can show one of their badges on your website.*
*NOTE: We have found that websites using Cloudflare may check out as not being green when in fact they are. This is because Cloudflare obscures the website's actual IP for added security.

We 'met' sustainable lifestyle blogger Francesca from Ethical Unicorn via the online #EthicalHour Network this summer. We had been talking about our wind powered website hosting, answering questions and generally finding out that still even lots of environmentally aware folks do not know of the pollution caused by web hosting powered by fossil fuels. We were delighted when Francesca signed up to one of our hosting plans and hired us to help her switch from her old WordPress hosted platform to our Green Hosting server and get her set up with a new theme.
I switched to Green Hosting a week ago now, and I honestly feel it’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
Once her new website was up and running Francesca wrote about what she learned about the website hosting industry, how there is an environmentally friendly alternative and her experience on working with us. Read Francesca's article 'The Environmental Impact Of Web Hosting, And Why I Switched To Wind Power'.
We get lots of lovely feedback from our clients but we thought this was particularly great, detailing Francesca's initial decision to switch right through to our customer service. Take a look at our clients page to see some of the other websites hosted with us.

Hosting your website on servers powered by 100% renewable energy is a real way of ensuring your business or organisation is helping the environment.
You might wonder what impact that can really make but second to the aviation industry, the powering of datacentres and cloud computing run on fossil fuels is reported to be the largest global contributor to carbon emissions. That is a big deal!
Don't be put off by the idea that switching from your old website host to Green Hosting is complicated and disruptive, it needn't be. We can help you make a smooth transition to us.
All you need to do is add the 'Website Transfer Service' when you sign up to one of our hosting plans. The best part is that our transfer service isn't expensive, it's just a one-off fee of £25.
If you have a WordPress website we can transfer your site and provide extra security features to help protect it from hackers.
If you'd like to know more please get in touch.
