Self-host the apps you use,
on hosting you control.
WordPress, Nextcloud, OpenCart, SuiteCRM, Invoice Ninja — install in one click on Gravity Host, store your data on UK NVMe servers, move it whenever you want. No platform fees, no rule changes, no surprise lock-in.
Why self-host?
Most modern services keep your data on their servers and can change pricing, terms, or features whenever they like. Self-hosting flips the relationship — your apps run on hosting you rent, your data lives where you put it, and you can leave any time.
Own your data
Files, databases, customer records — they live on your server, exportable any time. No "we keep your data in our format" surprises.
Predictable cost
One transparent renewal price, not per-user fees that scale with your team. The price you sign up at is the price you renew at.
Move freely
Built on open standards (cPanel, PHP, MySQL) so you can migrate to any provider — including off Gravity Host — without being trapped.
Customise anything
Plugins, themes, code-level changes — install what you want, when you want. None of the "feature locked behind a higher tier" nonsense.
Privacy by default
Your customer list, your invoices, your files don't pass through anyone else's analytics or AI training pipeline.
Federate when it helps
Apps like Nextcloud and Mastodon let you share or connect across servers when you want — not because a single platform decides.
