Hosting and performance

Where your website runs, why it's fast, and what's included in the ongoing operations.

Updated 23 June 2026

"Hosting" is simply where your website lives – the machines that serve the site to visitors. With us, hosting is included in the ongoing operations, and it's built for speed.

Built on modern infrastructure

Your website runs on a global network (Cloudflare) with servers all over the world. In practice, that means the site is loaded from a point near the visitor – whether they're in Tromsø, Oslo or abroad. That gives two benefits:

  • Speed. The site loads quickly no matter where visitors are.
  • Stability. The network handles traffic spikes without falling over.

Why speed matters

Speed isn't just a technical detail – it affects the bottom line:

  • Visitors stay. Slow sites lose people before they've seen the content.
  • Google ranks faster sites higher. Performance is part of search engine optimisation.
  • It feels professional. A snappy site gives a better impression of your business.

We build sites "light" from the ground up, and optimise images and code, so they load fast with no extra work from you.

What's included in operations

The monthly subscription covers:

  • Hosting – the site is up and running.
  • SSL/HTTPS – an encrypted, secure connection (the padlock in the browser).
  • Monitoring and maintenance – we keep the technical side up to date.
  • Backups – see Backups and updates.

In other words, you don't need to buy web hosting, an SSL certificate or server space on the side. It's all bundled into one predictable monthly price. Read more about what it covers in What the annual operations covers.
