About Ultra Web Hosting
Independent Web Hosting, Built and Operated Since 2002
We started this because nobody else was doing it right.
Ultra Web Hosting started out as Flux Services back in 2002, born from a simple frustration: hosting companies at the time did not care enough about the people they served. We set out to build something better.
More than two decades later, Ultra is still independently owned and operated. We handle every aspect of running a website, from hosting and domain registration to design consultation and ongoing support. Over the years we have hosted everything from small personal blogs to MTV television shows, and our client base has grown to tens of thousands of satisfied customers.
We have won multiple industry awards, and we are still here because we never stopped doing the thing that got us started: caring about our customers more than the other guys.
Two Decades of Doing It Right
What Makes Us Different
We do not cut corners. We do not rent what we can own. And we do not outsource what matters.
We Own and Operate Our Own Servers
Most hosting companies rent space on servers they do not own or control. Ultra is different. We purchase, configure, and maintain every server in our fleet. Our web hosting servers run dual Xeon multi-core processors with 64GB+ of RAM, solid state and high-capacity drives in redundant arrays, and redundant power supplies with dual power feeds. When we say "our servers," we mean it. We know every piece of hardware in the rack because we put it there.
Speed That Actually Matters
Every shared hosting account runs on our UltraSpeed Optimized platform. That means Nginx reverse proxy caching in front of Apache, CloudLinux resource isolation so your neighbors can not slow you down, and LiteSpeed-compatible LSAPI for faster PHP execution. The result is page loads that are 2x to 12x faster than a standard shared hosting setup. Need even more? Integrate Cloudflare CDN with your account in seconds, right from your control panel.
Security Built Into Every Layer
We do not treat security as an upsell. Every server in our fleet runs Imunify360 for real-time malware scanning and proactive defense, ModSecurity with the OWASP Core Rule Set for web application firewall protection, and CageFS via CloudLinux to isolate each hosting account from its neighbors. We also run CSF/LFD for network-level intrusion detection and brute force prevention. This is not a checklist; it is an active, layered security posture that we manage and tune every day.
On-Site Technicians, Real Support
Our staff works in the same building as our servers. If something goes down, we do not wait for a third-party data center to dispatch a technician. We walk over and fix it. Average support ticket response time is 12 minutes, and live chat is typically answered immediately. You talk to real people who know the systems you are running on, not an outsourced call center reading from a script.
24 Years and Counting
Ultra is not a fly-by-night hosting company. We have been at this since 2002, and in that time we have accumulated real-world experience with just about every scenario you can imagine. We were there for the rise of WordPress, the shift to mobile, the explosion of SSL, and the growing complexity of web security. With tens of thousands of clients over more than two decades, we have the depth of knowledge that only comes from doing this work every single day, year after year.
cPanel Control Panel
Every hosting account comes with cPanel, the industry's most popular hosting control panel. Manage your files, databases, email accounts, DNS records, backups, and more from an interface that millions of website owners already know how to use. If you have managed a website before, you will feel right at home.
No Setup Fees, No Surprises
There are no setup fees on any shared hosting plan regardless of your billing term. Pay month to month if you want flexibility, or pay for up to three years in advance to lock in a bigger discount. Either way, the price you see is the price you pay. We also offer a price guarantee and will beat any competitor's published price by 10%.
Room to Grow
Host as many websites as you like with the Ultra Unlimited plan. When your site outgrows shared hosting, we have clear upgrade paths to VPS and dedicated servers so you can scale without having to migrate to a different provider. Your domains, your email, your backups, and your support history all stay in one place.
45-Day Money-Back Guarantee
Try Ultra for 45 days and if you are not happy with any shared hosting plan, we will refund your hosting charges. No questions, no hassle. Most hosts only give you 30 days. We give you 45 because we know you are going to like what you see. Check out what our clients have to say.
Free Website Transfers
Switching hosting providers is stressful, so we handle it for you. Our team will migrate your website, databases, and email from your current host at no charge. You do not need to touch a thing.
One-Click App Installer
Install WordPress, WooCommerce, Joomla, phpBB, and dozens of other popular applications in under a minute with Softaculous. No command line, no FTP uploads, no guesswork. If you prefer to build visually, our Weebly site builder integration lets you create a professional website without writing any code.
Automatic Remote Backups
Every shared and reseller hosting account is backed up weekly to a dedicated remote backup server. This means we can restore your account on request, and your data is protected even in the event of a complete server failure. Accounts up to 5GB are backed up free of charge, and larger backup storage is available for accounts that need more space.
