New Website, New Look Hipposerve

We are really pleased to announce our new-look website with loads of new features to make it easier for our customers to see what they want and understand what they need from their online services.  On top of that, we still offer our great customer support for any query — no matter how small. Just take a look at this recent review for example:

“We have had problems with our emails sending and receiving for 5 years and nobody seemed interested in helping us. We switched to Hipposerve, who solved all our issues within half an hour. Really pleased with the support service that they offered.”

Unique Brand

Hopefully our new website and shopping experience strengthens our unique brand, which really is the friendly face of web hosting, domain names and emails.

Same Great Products

We still offer the same great products, with some improvements and additions to our offering, to ensure you get fast and secure web hosting and emails, at a fantastic price.

Hosting

Our hosting products include our shared hosting experience, our unique business pro hosting suite, VPS hosting and dedicated servers. We have also added preinstalled WordPress optimized hosting, so our customers can leverage the world’s most popular CMS. We even offer FREE hosting for UK registered charities (T&Cs apply). Find out more about our hosting here.

Email

As well as our ever popular basic 10 GB mailbox for just £2.49 a month, we have now expanded our offering to include an enhanced mailbox with full calendar synchronization, with 10GB and 20GB options, and a Microsoft Exchange Email option with a 25GB mailbox. You can learn more about our email plans here.

Domain Names

Our most popular domains are now only 99p for the first year (subject to a 2-year sign-up), and free for customers buying web hosting. We have an expanding range of TLDs to choose from, and you can find out more about our domain offering here.

Hippo Care

Many customers choose us to help look after their website. This can include making sure that it is kept updated, performing nightly off-site backups, updating content posts, maintaining e-commerce sites and much more. We now offer three tiers of service, Bronze, Silver and Gold. You can find out more about Hippo Care, here.

Free Website Migration

Moving websites can be a right hassle, and we are hassle-free; which is why we provide a free website migration service from your old host to Hipposerve. We take care of your website, any databases, your emails (if necessary) and your DNS. All with minimal downtime, too. You can find out more about this, here.

Some New Things too

As well as our standard hosting offering, we have some new and exciting services coming soon. These include Hippo SEO, Hippo Social, Hippo Designer and Hippo Doctor. Watch this space for more details.

In Summary

We hope that you enjoy our new website  and our new look Hipposerve. Have fun browsing through some of the services that we offer. We had great fun building the site! If you have any questions about any of our services, drop us a line by visiting our contact page here.

Harry Hippo

Meet Harry Hippo, the charismatic and slightly unconventional Admin at Hipposerve! Known for his love of the lush and muddy swamps, Harry is a proud vegetarian, favoring the simplicity and freshness of grass — it's his idea of haute cuisine. But don't let his calm, herbivorous lifestyle fool you; Harry is as passionate about swimming as he is about server uptime. With a splash and a dash, he glides through waters (and web hosting issues) with equal grace. Whether he's troubleshooting in the digital world or doing the backstroke in his favorite swamp, Harry brings a unique blend of charm, expertise, and a bit of hippo humor to everything he does. So, if you find your website in deep water, just remember: Harry Hippo is the one to pull you ashore!
