Web hosting that provides features you need and fast page load times, for a reasonable price.

NetNerd aims to make functional, performance orientated web hosting services available to all, and to help every small business succeed online, by offering great support, an end to end service, and fair prices to everyone. We aim to be transparent in how we operate, and make sure we always go the extra mile for our customers.

Web hosting features you need
All shared hosting comes with:

  • Built in backups available by default
  • Free SSL certificates
  • Free easy to use website builder.
  • One click WordPress installer
  • Website staging and cloning facilities.
  • Full DNS management.
  • Email deliverability record management.
  • PHP version selection.
  • PHP.ini management.
  • Instant mailbox creation.

We’ve been working with cPanel for well over 10 years now. The default feature set that cPanel provides gives you a lot of the facilities that you’ll need to manage your online presence.

We’ve added to the default cPanel feature set to provide you with additional resources, such as automatic backups and one click script installers and WordPress management facilities.

We aim to provide you with all the features you’ll need or want in one unified control panel, with ease of use and a known track record. We provide this with all our shared hosting packages by default, so you don’t need to make additional purchases to be able to operate your online services.

We’ve invested a lot of time and research in working out how to provide a stack that provides optimal performance without the need to undertake a lot of technical work on your website, and without it breaking the bank.

The stack we operate can be integrated with WordPress by installing a plugin and carrying out a few clicks.

Passing core web vitals, gaining blazing fast page load times, and an improved user experience shouldn’t be inaccessible, need in depth technical knowledge or cost a fortune.

Optimised Web Hosting
Pass Core Web Vitals

  • Litespeed web server for fast page load times.
  • Object caching built in (redis & memecahed)
  • Opcache available by default.
  • HTTP/3.
  • Brotli compression.
  • WordPress integration in a few clicks.
  • No in depth technical knowledge required.
  • All of the above, with no increase in price.

Fair and Transparent Pricing

  • Consistent pricing over many years wherever possible.
  • No hidden fees to gain extra features.
  • Our cheapest ever hosting launched in 2023.
  • Consistent incremental upgrade path with no ridiculous price hikes.
  • No ridiculous mark up.

We make our pricing how we’d like to be billed. Fair, transparent, and as consistent as possible. Nobody likes a price hike. Nobody likes to make an additional payment to gain a commonly used feature.

Of course there’s a variety of packages and an upgrade path, but we do what we can to make this is incremental and smooth as possible. We also base the need to upgrade on what increases our cost as a provider, rather than charging you for everything we can think of.

Web Hosting Idea

Easy Internet Solutions is the sister company of Easy Internet Services, a digital marketing company.  Having noticed that a large number of customers were being overcharged for the web hosting. We set up a small web hosting venture charging half of what most customers were paying.

Business Conception

With the success of the small-scale web hosting, it was decided that be better to set up a brand-new business to cater for the increased demand and this is how Easy Internet Solutions came about.

Dedicated Hosting

We moved from hosting via a reseller platform to leasing our own dedicated hardware and hiring our first systems administrator.

March 2012

Infrastructure Design

In 2012, we invested heavily in building our servers and migrating them to a colocation provider in Bournemouth.
