PERFORMANCE ARCHITECTURE

Built for Speed & Reliability

Affordable hosting does not have to mean slow hardware. Every HostBlizzard account runs on enterprise NVMe servers in a Canadian datacentre.

STORAGE SPEED

Enterprise NVMe Storage

NVMe drives read and write far faster than SATA SSDs or spinning disks. HostBlizzard uses enterprise NVMe drives throughout, which keeps WordPress database queries and file downloads quick.

  • ✓ Enterprise NVMe drives on every server
  • ✓ Websites, databases and email all on NVMe storage
  • ✓ Fast database queries for WordPress and other PHP apps

NVMe Storage

Low-latency solid-state storage on every server.

WORDPRESS

1-Click WordPress Installer

Get a WordPress site online in about a minute. The Enhance control panel installs WordPress and creates its database for you, with staging built in for safe testing.

  • ✓ Automatic core & plugin update options
  • ✓ Automatic database configuration
  • ✓ Free staging sites for testing updates

WordPress Ready

Install, update and stage WordPress sites from your control panel.

SECURITY & SSL

Free SSL & DDoS Mitigation

Security should not be an expensive add-on. Every domain and subdomain pointed to HostBlizzard automatically receives a free Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate that renews on its own.

  • ✓ Automatic SSL issuance and renewal
  • ✓ Always-on network DDoS mitigation
  • ✓ Web application firewall filtering common attacks

Protected by Default

SSL, DDoS mitigation and a web application firewall on every plan.

The Control Panel: Enhance

A Control Panel That Gets Out of Your Way

HostBlizzard runs on Enhance, a modern hosting control panel that puts files, databases, email, DNS, and backups in one clean dashboard, with every website in its own container.

    Every Site at a Glance

    Sign in to see all your websites with live previews and visitor stats. The panel works on desktop, tablet, and phone, with dark mode and two-factor sign-in.

  2. Feature 2

    One Page per Website

    Apps, files, databases, email, domains, analytics, backups, and security for each site, with quick links to restart its container or open phpMyAdmin, and to clone it on Snowstorm and Avalanche.

  4. Feature 4

    Daily Backups, Self-Service Restore

    Incremental backups run every day on a separate backup server in Canada. Restore a whole website, or pick individual files or databases, straight from the panel.

    Read the guide: Back up and restore a website
  • Every Website in Its Own Container. Each site runs in a separate Linux container with its own resource limits, so a problem on one site stays on that site.
  • One-Click Staging Sites. Clone your live site to a staging copy, test updates, then push it live. Staging sites do not count toward your website limit.
  • Free SSL and a Web Application Firewall. Let’s Encrypt certificates are issued and renewed automatically. ModSecurity with OWASP rules and brute-force protection screen incoming requests.
