Why use an Ubuntu VPS server?

How does hostworld give you affordability without compromising quality?

A virtual private server (VPS) is a virtual machine that runs its own copy of an operating system (in this case, Ubuntu) with root access. Each virtual server is completely private from other virtual servers and functions as a regular dedicated server. This means you can do more online without slow-downs from a shared server or the expense of a dedicated server. Because it's cloud-based, you get the flexibility to easily add features and expand your resources on demand.

Because we both own and operate our own VPS infrastructure, including our Maidenhead, London, datacentre, we're equipped to offer a high standard of service. We have the control, and that means you get better service all around. More features, more support, more reliability. If you're considering moving to a VPS solution for your website, our NVMe SSD drives and KVM virtualisation technology are exactly what you need for optimal performance.

Ubuntu VPS hosting that grows with your business

Take control of your project with VPS plans that provide enterprise-grade features at an affordable price.

Instant activation

Your server is built and booted automatically, so it is ready to log into about a minute after you order.

Free automatic backups

Scheduled backups run without you configuring anything, and they cost nothing on top of the plan price.

IPv6 Support

Full IPv6 connectivity alongside your IPv4 address, ready for the services and networks that now expect it.

24/7 expert support

Real engineers on our own UK team, reachable by ticket and live chat at any hour of the day or night.

Choice of operating systems

Pick your operating system at checkout, and reinstall to a different one later from the control panel whenever you want.

DDoS Protection

In-line filtering from Arbor sits in front of our network, absorbing attacks before they ever reach your server.

Custom ISO

Upload your own installation image and mount it, so you are never limited to the templates we happen to provide.

Powered by KVM

Full hardware virtualisation, which means your RAM, CPU and disk are genuinely yours rather than shared out of a container.

Pre-install a control panel

Add cPanel, CentOS Web Panel, Webmin, Plesk, Interworx or ISPConfig during checkout and it is configured before your first login.

Industry leading control panel

Reboot, rebuild, mount media and watch your resource usage yourself, without having to open a ticket for routine jobs.

Tailor your VPS

Adjust the specification to what you actually need, rather than paying for a fixed bundle that only nearly fits.

Upgrade & downgrade at any time

Move up or down a plan as your workload changes, and your data stays exactly where it is.

Fast 1 Gbps uplink

A gigabit port onto a network that has been independently rated among the fastest in the UK.

No contracts

No minimum term and no exit fee, so you can cancel the moment the server stops being useful to you.

All our VPS Servers can be configured with the following Operating Systems or your own custom ISO.

CentOS Operating System

Developed to be lightweight, fast and reliable, CentOS is an excellent choice for VPS hosting. CentOS is originated from Red Hat Enterprise Linux so it's secure, robust and strong.

Available: CentOS 7 (64-bit, free)

Ubuntu Operating System

Ubuntu is a popular operating system for VPS web hosting. Based on Debian and composed of mostly free and open-source software, Ubuntu gives you a flexible and stable hosting environment.

Available: Ubuntu 22.04, 20.04 & 18.04 LTS (64-bit, free)

Fedora Operating System

With Fedora, you get a well-designed, customisable and secure platform for VPS hosting.

Available: Fedora 42 (64-bit, free)

Debian Operating System

Debian is ideal for servers due to a combination of stability and high speeds.

Available: Debian 12 & 11 (64-bit, free)

Almalinux Operating System

Built for stability, performance, and long-term support, AlmaLinux is a rock-solid choice for VPS hosting.

Available: AlmaLinux 10.1, 9.7 & 8.10 (64-bit, free)

Every operating system is free. Optionally pre-install a control panel at checkout: cPanel (Solo, Admin, Pro or Premier), CentOS Web Panel, Webmin, Plesk, Interworx or ISPConfig.

Handle traffic without breaking a sweat, even at your busiest times

High performance

We use the latest in NVMe SSD storage technology in all our VPS servers, along with our high-spec server hardware to ensure the fastest platform possible.

99.9% Uptime

With a traditional dedicated server, if your hardware fails then you get downtime. Our VPS servers are optimised with the latest RAID technology ensuring we have the best redundancy in place.

No contracts or fees

We don't believe in contracting you into a service and are confident that our VPS service speaks for itself. You are free to cancel whenever you like without penalties or quibbles.

DDoS Protection

Our UK network is protected from attack through in-line DDoS protection from Arbor, the world's leading manufacturer of cyber threat protection, network visibility and threat intelligence services.

Interconnectivity

Both our UK and US data centre has diverse fibre routing via multiple carriers and redundant core switches and routers. Our UK network has been independently-rated as being one of the fastest in the UK.

Security

Security is paramount. Our data centre has internal and external CCTV systems, security breach alarms and is manned 24/7.
