HTTP/2 is here to make the web faster!

Since 1999, the web has changed tremendously. It might seem paradoxical then that the latest version of HTTP, the hypertext transfer protocol at the basis of data communication for internet dates back to… 1999.

It took 17 years for HTTP/2 to see the light. Good news, this new protocol starts a new chapter for the web, with better performances and security.

HTTP/2 is based on the original HTTP – methods, status codes and semantics haven’t changed – but improves tremendously the performances for [...]

Making hosting easy – for good

Interfaces that all look different, too many passwords to remember, too many technical steps to set up things that should be simple to configure… Hosting is way behind.

How can we improve it?

Time for centralized management

One interface to rule them all. Imagine managing all your hosting plans and domain names in one place. Imagine having the [...]

Why is web hosting still so complicated?

After celebrating #BackToTheFutureDay and comparing futuristic products to reality, we realized that there are still no self-lacing sneakers.
