What is Host Media?
Our expertise in hosting solutions dates back to 2002 but we actually launched Host Media in 2008. With our range of powerful server resources, we wanted to provide heavy media and application based hosting that will not fail under the stress that is created by media based websites and applications. We continue to use our rule on overselling. We do not do it and will sell what we have, so you know that when you order your hosting plan that the hosting space is dedicated to you, not anyone else. We pride ourselves on customer service and providing the best hosting solution possible. If you have any questions or would like to know more please contact a member of the team: sales@hostmedia.uk

Review Summary
Generated using AI from real user reviews
Host Media receives overwhelmingly positive reviews, with 42 five-star ratings out of 50 and strong satisfaction across nearly all dimensions. Users consistently praise the company's responsive support, competitive pricing, and reliability. Many describe support staff as knowledgeable, patient, and willing to go beyond standard service—helping with migrations, downgrades, and technical troubleshooting even when customers caused the issues themselves. Long-standing customers (some for over a decade) repeatedly cite zero or minimal downtime and note the company's particular strength in specialised hosting like Cold Fusion.
The few criticisms are minor and scattered. Three reviewers gave 3–4 stars, citing occasional delays in payment processing and, in one case, inconsistent technical support quality where certain issues required repeated requests before resolution. Another reviewer noted that support sometimes prioritises closing tickets over solving underlying problems. One user mentioned a minor interface frustration with email login lockouts.
Overall, Host Media appeals to buyers seeking affordable, dependable hosting with hands-on customer service. The company works well for long-term customers and those needing niche solutions. The rare negative feedback suggests support consistency can vary, but it does not significantly detract from the strong reputation reflected in these reviews.

You just can't beat Host Media. They are friendly, courteous and considerate and always provide excellent customer service. Pricing is excellent (virtually free for a small site) and features are great. They even support the ColdFusion platform at very little cost. I use them for around half-a-dozen sites. I've needed to upgrade most of these at one time or another (mostly for more space) and they've always been quick to respond and take action.

“I like the quality Host Media provides for the best…”
I like the quality Host Media provides for the best price. Have never had any issues with hosting service with them, and planning to move my other domain from Register.com to host with them. Reliable service, good price! And they have Drupal support, which is what I was looking for! Free service is good to start and get the feel of their service, you want lose anything for trying. Actually, you will gain much more!

I have tried several hosting companies, several as there was always some problems with the hosting service or customers service. Host Media UK is the first company that I stayed with for years, great customer service and great hosting service. It doesn't matter if you are a small user, huge user or even a free user, you get the best support for the best price. I recommend them for my friends and business relations.

“Hostmedia cannot be beaten for price - £1 setup fee…”
Hostmedia cannot be beaten for price - £1 setup fee and free hosting on their basic packages which include Railo and CF support. Also good support ticket resolution times, a choice of server locations and a host of extra features make Host media my first choice for hosting.
