Your website is hosted on premium cloud infrastructure in Greece, managed by us on your behalf. You don't need to deal with any hosting provider directly, we handle everything.

## Our Hosting Partner: FASTPATH

We host all client websites through **FASTPATH**, a premium cloud hosting provider based in Athens, Greece. Unlike most hosting companies that rent cheap servers abroad, FASTPATH owns and operates its own enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure located in a certified Tier III datacenter in Athens.

This matters for your website because:

* **Speed**: Servers are physically in Greece, so Greek visitors get the fastest possible load times with latency as low as 1ms

* **Reliability**: Enterprise-grade hardware (AMD EPYC CPUs, NVMe SSDs, DDR5 ECC RAM) with no overselling

* **Connectivity**: Direct peering with all major Greek ISPs (OTE, Vodafone, Nova) via GR-IX, meaning traffic doesn't route through unnecessary international networks

* **Security**: The datacenter is certified under Uptime Institute Tier III, PCI-DSS, and ISO 14001 standards

## Two Types of Hosting We Provide

### Standard Websites

For business websites and smaller projects, your website is hosted on our Cloud SSD PRO plan. Each website gets its own isolated space with dedicated resources - no overcrowding.

**What's included per website:**

* 5 GB NVMe SSD storage

* Up to 5 email accounts (up to 2 GB mailbox each)

* Free SSL certificate

* Daily automated backups (14-day retention)

**Annual cost: €75 + VAT/year**

### WooCommerce & Complex Websites

For larger ecommerce stores or high-traffic websites, we recommend (and manage) a dedicated Managed Cloud Hosting plan directly on FASTPATH's infrastructure. This provides isolated resources, advanced performance features, and scales with your traffic.

If your website falls into this category, we'll discuss the right plan with you based on your specific needs.

## Do You Have Access to the Hosting Panel?

For security reasons, we manage the hosting environment on your behalf and do not provide panel access by default. If you need access for a specific reason, you can request it and we'll create a dedicated user account for you.
