Managed VPS hosting on Australian servers
Your own cPanel server in Sydney, managed for you. Dedicated CPU, RAM and NVMe storage, with Web Cat as your local point of contact. From $199 a month.
When a VPS makes sense
Our shared plans suit most Australian websites. A VPS is the step up when you need guaranteed resources:
- An online store where checkout must stay fast through traffic spikes.
- A busy site that has outgrown the CPU and memory of a shared account.
- A business that needs its own server, with every byte hosted in Australia.
What every managed VPS includes
- Dedicated resources. Your own CPU cores, RAM and NVMe SSD storage, plus a dedicated IP address.
- cPanel and WHM. Installed and maintained for you, with unlimited websites and email accounts, Softaculous and free auto-renewing SSL.
- Backups twice a day. Full off-site backups with Backuply. Restore a single file, a database or the whole account.
- Security and monitoring. 24/7 server monitoring, CloudLinux, Monarx firewall and malware protection.
- Free migration. We move your existing cPanel sites across with your site online the whole way.
- Hosted in Sydney. Your data stays in Australia.

VPS FAQ
What is the difference between a VPS and shared hosting?
Shared hosting puts many customers on one server, which is great value for most sites. A VPS gives you CPU, RAM and storage reserved for your sites alone, so performance stays consistent however busy the rest of the network gets.
Who looks after the server?
We do, together with our infrastructure partner. Software updates, monitoring, backups, firewall and malware protection are handled for you. You manage your websites in cPanel as usual.
Can I move from shared hosting to a VPS later?
Yes, that is the usual growth path. We move your cPanel account across for free when you are ready, and your site stays online throughout.
