From Zero to over 70K Users in 18 Months: The WebHostMost Journey. Web Hosting Story.

From zero users to 12+ petabytes of monthly traffic, WebHostMost has built a high-performance, decentralized hosting infrastructure trusted by 70,000+ users worldwide. In this post, we explore how it all came together and what’s coming next.

They started with nothing. No team, no infrastructure, no investors. Just an idea and a stubborn refusal to quit.

Today? Tens of thousands of users. Petabytes of monthly traffic. Real revenue. Real growth.
Here’s how WebHostMost built one of the fastest-growing hosting platforms in the world from absolute zero.

Just 1.5 years ago, WebHostMost didn’t exist. There was no infrastructure, no team, no brand – just an ambitious idea and a deep understanding of what developers and businesses actually need from modern web hosting.

Fast-forward to today:

  • 70,000+ registered users
  • 30,000+ active clients
  • 20,000+ paid service plans
  • 28,000+ live projects running right now

And every piece of it from our data centers and control panels to our support team and global CDN was built from scratch. No shortcuts. No off-the-shelf solutions. Just a clear strategy, relentless iteration, and a community that backed us from day one.

Over 12 Petabytes a Year: Our Web Hosting Global Traffic Footprint

Let’s talk real numbers. Every month, WebHostMost processes over 860 terabytes of bandwidth across all regions. That’s more than 12 petabytes per year and we’re just getting started.

But what does that mean?

We’re not talking about cached assets from a CDN.
We’re not talking about masked proxy traffic or inflated internal metrics.
This is actual hosting traffic: real websites, real users, real data – served directly from our infrastructure, 24/7.

Here’s the regional breakdown:

  • šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡ø United States ~240 TB/month
  • šŸ‡ŖšŸ‡ŗ Europe ~250 TB/month
  • šŸ‡®šŸ‡³ India/Asia ~370 TB/month

That’s millions of uploaded images, tens of thousands of videos, live backups, e-commerce checkouts, dynamic apps, REST API calls, and endless cat photos – delivered fast and reliably, every second of every day.

To put it simply:
This is the digital bloodstream of thousands of active projects.

And the scale is no accident. Our entire network is built to move data where it’s needed – with precision, efficiency, and global reach. Each region is strategically powered by decentralized infrastructure, ensuring optimal speed, low latency, and maximum uptime.

Every terabyte served is a reflection of trust:
From indie developers to startups and small businesses – they choose WebHostMost not just for pricing or features, but because we handle scale without compromise.

And 12 petabytes a year? That’s just the beginning.

What Powers This Infrastructure?

Moving 12 petabytes a year isn’t something you achieve with a typical shared hosting setup. It takes purpose-built architecture, fine-tuned performance, and relentless focus on reliability. At WebHostMost, we’ve engineered every layer of our infrastructure to support real-world scale and deliver measurable speed and security out of the box.

Here’s what powers it all:

  • ⚔ LiteSpeed Web Server
    All our plans (even free trials) – run on the premium version of LiteSpeed. With full-page caching and deep CMS integration, this means page load times under 0.5 seconds are not just possible – they’re standard.
  • šŸ›” 7-Layer Security Stack
    DDoS mitigation, WAF, real-time threat monitoring, smart rate limiting – protection starts before your site is even hit. Every server includes a hardened setup designed to block bad actors before they even knock.
  • 🧠 Built-in Server-Level Caching
    We don’t rely on WordPress plugins or third-party tools. Our caching is native to the web server – delivering faster pages, reduced CPU usage, and consistently snappy performance.
  • 🌐 Next-Gen Protocols: HTTP/3 + Brotli + IPv6
    Your site is delivered via the fastest, most modern protocols. Brotli compression makes content lighter. HTTP/3 ensures speed and reliability, even on poor connections. IPv6 keeps you future-ready.
  • šŸ“ˆ Auto-Scaling, Globally Distributed
    No matter where your traffic comes from or how it spikes – our infrastructure scales horizontally and vertically. Business surges? Viral traffic? We’ve got it covered.

This isn’t just ā€œhostingā€.
This is infrastructure you can rely on.

Whether you’re launching your first WordPress site or running a SaaS platform across continents, the technology behind WebHostMost is designed to be your silent powerhouse: fast, secure, and always on.

Active Projects and Real Users

At WebHostMost, we don’t chase vanity metrics. We focus on what actually runs – real websites, live users, and active infrastructure.

Here’s a snapshot of where we are today:

  • šŸ‘„ 70,000+ registered users
    People from all over the world have signed up to try our hosting.
  • šŸš€ 30,000+ active users
    These aren’t just signups – these are users who log in, deploy, and build.
  • šŸ’³ 20,000+ paid service plans
    From WordPress blogs to SaaS apps – each one running on our infrastructure.
  • šŸŒ 28,000+ live projects online right now
    That’s 28,000+ websites actively serving traffic, handling requests, and growing.

We track what matters. No inflated numbers, no bloated user base. Just real projects and real usage – 24/7.

Because at the end of the day, success isn’t in how many people sign up – it’s in how many stay, grow, and trust us to power their business.

Decentralized by Design

At WebHostMost, decentralization isn’t a buzzword – it’s a core part of how our infrastructure is built.

We don’t rely on one country, one location, or one server farm. Instead, we operate three independent data centers across key global regions – each capable of handling production workloads. In addition, we maintain a dedicated backup node in a separate jurisdiction for offsite disaster recovery.

Here’s what that means in practice:

  • šŸŒ Three active data centers
    Strategically located across North America, Europe, and Asia to ensure performance, availability, and global coverage.
  • šŸ” One offsite backup facility
    Designed purely for data redundancy and disaster recovery – fully isolated and always ready to restore.
  • šŸ›”ļø No single point of failure
    Our network is built to survive hardware issues, connectivity drops, and even regional outages.
  • 🚫 No reliance on third-party CDNs or cloud providers
    We own our infrastructure. Your sites run on real servers, not rented space in someone else’s cloud.
  • 🌐 Independent DNS via Anycast
    Visitors are routed to the closest healthy region for blazing-fast response times and built-in failover.

WebHostMost is more than just hosting – it’s a decentralized infrastructure built for resilience, compliance, and peace of mind.

Built for Developers and Businesses Alike

WebHostMost wasn’t built for just one type of user. From solo developers crafting custom tools to agencies managing dozens of client sites – our infrastructure is designed to scale with your ambition.

We support all major stacks out of the box:

  • WordPress comes pre-installed and fully optimized with server-level LiteSpeed Cache, delivering load times under 0.5 seconds – with zero configuration.
  • Python and Node.js applications can be deployed instantly on supported plans, complete with version control and environment isolation.
  • PHP support includes multiple versions and OPcache acceleration, ideal for both modern and legacy apps.
  • Any other PHP-based CMS (Joomla, Drupal, Magento, OpenCart, PrestaShop, and so on) can also be installed and benefit from Redis cache and our lightning-fast web server setup.Ā 

To empower developers, every account includes:

  • Full SSH access out of the box (no extra fees or setup delays)
  • Git integration for seamless code deployment
  • Web-based MySQL tools for easy database management
  • Public API access for automating infrastructure and scaling workflows
