Our Story

HostColor.com is a widely recognized web hosting provider that has been in operation since 1999. The company was initially established as a small European-based enterprise co-owned by two individuals, who faced the primary challenge of finding a reliable IT infrastructure for their services. During the first two years of operation, HostColor.com resold hosting services from Alabanza and RackShack, which provided acceptable service uptime but inadequate technical support. To deliver premium Service Level Agreements to clients, HostColor.com recognized the need for full control over the hosting infrastructure and established its first server data center in South Bend, Indiana.
In 2003, Host Color LLC became a legal entity in Wilmington, Delaware, and maintained a colocation center in New York. Since then, the company has continuously expanded its infrastructure, and HostColor.com has grown into a reputable global brand with infrastructure in over 80 edge data centers worldwide.
With over 25 years of experience in the web hosting industry, HostColor.com has witnessed the development of several technology cycles. We started hosting virtual hosting accounts (Shared Hosting) on physical servers and went through all stages of transformation of the industry - from using virtualization technologies on stand-alone servers to building high-availability cluster systems of physical nodes and creating, managing, and supporting advanced enterprise-grade cloud infrastructures. Our team has gained more than two decades of successful experience in the design, deployment, and automation of IT systems and infrastructures.
HostColor.com specializes in delivering Semi-Managed Dedicated Hosting and Edge Servers services. We deliver Cloud Hosting service and US Dedicated Servers from 50 data centers. The company's track record of hard work and dedication to client success has earned it recognition as one of the world's most reliable and committed edge cloud and bare metal server hosting providers. In the cloud infrastructure and web hosting industry, the HostColor.com brand means reliability, professional attitude, and the best possible customer care, making us the preferred choice for anyone seeking scalable and high-performance web hosting services.
