Why host with phas
Built and run by a developer, not a reseller with a support queue.
Close to your visitors
Servers in Melbourne: fast for visitors across Australia, and a short hop for New Zealand.
A container of your own
Your plan's CPU and RAM limits apply to your container alone, and every other account has its own, so no single site can take over the server.
Run by a developer
The person who tunes the stack is the person who reads your ticket. Answers come with a fix, not a request to clear your cache.
Support every day
Support 8am–8pm Australian Eastern time, 7 days. Outages first. Your ticket goes to the developer who runs the platform.
Isolated by default
Rootless containers keep every account walled off from its neighbours, with proactive monitoring and updates on top. Free SSL on every site.
Free migration
We move your existing site — files, databases and DNS — and you approve a preview before anything changes. Free for every site on a new plan.
What's in the control panel
Every plan gets the same panel, opened from your dashboard already signed in. Nothing is held back for a bigger plan.
One-click installs
WordPress in a click, plus Joomla, Drupal, PrestaShop, OpenCart, Moodle, Matomo and more.
PHP your way
Pick the PHP 8.x version per domain and change php.ini settings yourself.
Node.js, Python and Ruby
Run apps beyond PHP in the same container.
Databases
MySQL databases with phpMyAdmin, imports and a live process list.
Redis and Memcached
Object caching for WordPress and your apps, switched on from the panel.
Terminal and FTPS
A shell in your browser, and FTP over TLS for your editor.
File manager
Upload and edit in the browser, fix permissions, and get deleted files back from the trash.
Cron jobs
Schedule scripts and app tasks to the minute.
Logs and visitor stats
Access and error logs per domain, plus GoAccess visitor reports.
Firewall controls
Tune the web application firewall per domain and block IP addresses.
Redirects
Send old paths or whole domains somewhere new.
Backup Wizard
Make a full or partial backup yourself and download it.

Security
Walled off and watched, on every plan.
One compromised site shouldn't take the rest with it, and a busy neighbour shouldn't slow yours down.
- Isolation
Your own container
Rootless, with its own CPU and RAM limits, walled off from every other account.
- Firewall
Web application firewall
The OWASP Core Rule Set in front of every site, tuned so WordPress and WooCommerce work.
- SSL
Free SSL, renewed for you
Let's Encrypt certificates issue automatically and renew on their own.
- Sign-in
Two-factor sign-in
Protect your account with an authenticator app, and see and revoke every signed-in device.
- Monitoring
Servers watched 24/7
Infrastructure monitoring alerts us the moment a server or service misbehaves.
- Backups
Encrypted off-site backups
Premium Backups keeps 30 days of daily copies away from the server, $10/mo or $120/yr. How it works
Two things other hosts bundle, and why we don't
Most hosting plans throw in same-server backups and a few mailboxes. We think both are done badly that way, so we do them differently — and say so up front.
Backups are an add-on, and they're real ones
A "free backup" on the same server as your site disappears with it. Premium Backups copies your whole plan every day, encrypts it before it leaves the server, keeps 30 days of copies off-site and restores in one click.
No bundled mailboxes — free forwarding instead
Hosting-plan mailboxes mean small quotas and spam trouble whenever a neighbour misbehaves. Every phas domain gets free email forwarding — info@yourdomain to any inbox — and when you need full mailboxes, we point you at providers who do nothing else.

How migration worksCommon questions
Can I bring a domain I already own?
Yes. Keep it registered where it is and point it at us, or transfer it in. Hosting attaches to any domain at checkout, wherever it lives.
What happens when I outgrow my plan?
Upgrade yourself from the hosting page — the checkout pre-selects the next plan up, charges the prorated difference to your saved card, and your container resizes in place. Same server, no reinstall.
Are backups included?
Not in the base plan. Without it you need your own copies; Backup Wizard in the control panel makes one. Premium Backups does it for you: a full copy every day, encrypted, kept off-site for 30 days, restored from your dashboard. It's $10 a month or $120 a year per plan.
Is email included?
Mailboxes aren't part of hosting plans, but free email forwarding is part of every phas domain — info@yourdomain to any inbox you already use. For mailboxes, see the providers we recommend. Your site's own mail, like contact forms and receipts, needs SMTP or our Transactional Email add-on, because the server doesn't send mail itself.
Where does my data live?
On our servers in Melbourne, under Australian privacy law. Premium Backups adds encrypted off-site copies. The Privacy Policy lists every supplier that holds data, and where.
Is there a contract?
No. Plans run month to month or year to year, and you cancel from your dashboard — nobody phones you to talk you out of it. The price on the page is the price you pay; there's no introductory rate waiting to jump.
