All prices include 19 % VAT. Renewal prices match the price shown.
Included in every plan
Free SSL
An encrypted connection for every domain, set up automatically.
Fast NVMe storage
Your web space and databases sit on NVMe storage.
Current PHP versions
Choose the right version for your application.
Clean hosting
Refurbished hardware, and the waste heat goes into a vegetable bed.
Using WordPress or Shopware?
We have plans tuned specifically for them.
What is web hosting?
With web hosting, you rent space on a server that is connected to the internet around the clock. That is where your website's files and databases live, and where your emails arrive. We take care of the technology, server updates and security; you take care of your content.
Web hosting suits most websites: company sites, club sites, blogs, portfolios and smaller shops.
Which plan suits you?
The four plans differ mainly in storage space, the number of domains and mailboxes, and databases. As a rule of thumb:
- Radieschen for a single website, for example for a club or a job application
- Möhre for company websites with several mailboxes
- Kohlrabi for several projects and more visitors
- Kürbis for high demands on performance and storage
Run cleanly in Germany
Our servers run on refurbished hardware, and we use their waste heat for a vegetable bed. That is where the plan names come from (they are German vegetables). All data stays with us, and you can reach real people by phone and email. Support is also available in English, by ticket and phone.
Moving to Himmelfreund
Already have a website with another provider? We help you move your files, databases, emails and domain so your site keeps running without a long interruption.
Included in every plan
Automatic updates
Core, themes and plugins stay up to date, with backup and rollback.
One-click staging
Try out changes first, then take them live.
Redis and page cache
Short loading times, even with lots of visitors.
Firewall and malware scan
Login protection and regular checks for malware.
Looking for something else?
There are dedicated plans for shops, or classic web hosting for everything else.
Why dedicated WordPress hosting?
WordPress runs on any web hosting. With WordPress hosting, however, the server is tuned for WordPress: the right PHP version, caching and features that take work off your hands, such as updates and backups.
That keeps your site fast and secure without you having to know about server settings.
Updates, backups and security
Outdated plugins are the most common reason WordPress sites get hacked. That is why updates for WordPress, themes and plugins run automatically, each with a backup beforehand and the option to roll back. We keep backups for 30 days.
Which plan suits you?
The plans differ in the number of WordPress sites, storage and extra features:
- Kresse for a blog or a club website
- Rucola for up to three websites
- Spinat for several sites or WooCommerce
- Mangold for agencies, with agency dashboard and white label
Included in every plan
Your own container
Guaranteed RAM, reserved for your shop alone.
Redis and OpenSearch
Fast pages and a fast shop search.
Shopware updates by us
We keep Shopware up to date, with staging for testing.
Monitoring
We notice outages and get alerted.
Looking for something else?
There are dedicated plans for WordPress, or classic web hosting for everything else.
What Shopware needs from hosting
Shopware 6 has higher requirements than a simple website: enough RAM, a current PHP version, cron jobs and caching. Our Shopware hosting comes preconfigured for this, so your shop loads quickly and orders go through reliably.
Loading time is revenue
The faster product pages and checkout load, the fewer customers leave. That is why every plan includes a Redis cache and OpenSearch for the shop search, and from Aubergine upward also Varnish and an hourly database backup.
Which plan suits you?
The plans are tiered by performance:
- Kirschtomate for getting started with a small product range
- Paprika for growing shops
- Aubergine for large product ranges and sale days, with a load test before launch
- Zucchini for high load, with performance analysis
Lifetime web hosting for foundations: pay once, stay visible for good
A foundation is set up to last forever, and its website should be too. With lifetime web hosting from Himmelfreund, you pay once and your foundation's website is taken care of for decades. No ongoing contracts, no annual invoices and no worry that the site will be switched off one day because someone missed a renewal.
Why foundations choose lifetime hosting
One expense instead of an ongoing task. A one-time payment is easy to plan in your budget and easy to present to your boards and the foundation supervisory authority (Stiftungsaufsicht).
Independent of individuals. Board members and volunteers change; the website stays. Nobody has to keep track of renewals, payments or expiring domains.
Preserving the memory. Many foundations bear the name of their founder. With Eiche LT, this legacy stays visible online for generations.
Reputable and secure. Your domain is included and encrypted with SSL. Your site runs isolated in its own container and is checked and backed up every day.
Also suitable for
Clubs and associations, parishes and initiatives, memorial and remembrance sites, project and archive sites, and any small website that needs to stay reliably online. For email mailboxes, we recommend our web hosting plans, starting with Radieschen WH.
Frequently asked questions
What exactly does “lifetime” mean?
With Buche LT, we guarantee that your website will run for 30 years from the start of the contract. With Eiche LT, the guarantee goes beyond these 30 years.² You can find the exact conditions in our terms and conditions.
Will our foundation receive a proper invoice?
Yes, you receive an invoice with VAT shown separately. It is suitable for your accounts and for review by the foundation supervisory authority.
What happens if our contact persons change?
You can update the contact details in the customer area at any time. The contract is in the name of the foundation, not of an individual.
Is an email address included?
No. Lifetime hosting is deliberately kept lean. For email, we recommend our web hosting plans with generous email storage.
Can the foundation pay in installments?
Yes, in up to 24 monthly installments.¹
Can the website be maintained as well?
Yes. With our maintenance service, we keep your website's technology up to date, and on request we also update content such as text, images and events.
¹ Effective annual interest rate 9.02%. Total amount when paying in installments: €487.15 (Buche LT) or €1,083.88 (Eiche LT).
² You can find the exact terms of the guarantee in our terms and conditions.
