Two ways to start

A new website, or the one you already have

Both live in the same account and the same dashboard, so you can run several of each.

Get a website made for your business

Tell us what you do, whether that’s a restaurant, shop, clinic, studio or consultancy, and choose from designs made for that kind of business. Preview it, pick the one you like, and your complete website is ready in about a minute.

  • Designs made for your type of business
  • Your pages, menus, photos and contact details filled in
  • Change text, photos, colours and pages yourself
  • Online stores, bookings and enquiries where your business needs them

Bring the website you already have

Upload your website as a ZIP file or connect its Git repository. We set up everything it needs to run and put it online with a secure address. Then you manage it from the same simple dashboard.

  • HTML, WordPress, PHP, React, Next.js and Node.js
  • Start a brand-new WordPress in one click
  • MySQL databases, files and backups in your browser
  • No servers, software or settings to look after
Included with every plan

Hosting that takes care of itself

The things that keep a business website safe and fast, set up for you from day one.

SSL on every site

Secure https:// on your oniwc.com address and on your own domain, renewed automatically.

Daily backups

Files and databases backed up every day. Restore in one click, or download a copy.

Watched around the clock

If your site stops answering, it is restarted automatically and you are told.

Updates without downtime

A new version only replaces the old one once it is running. Go back any time.

Your own private space

Your site runs separately from every other customer’s, with its own reserved resources.

Clear usage and alerts

See your storage, visitors and data transfer, with a warning well before any limit.

Developers on your side

Our development team can build new pages, improve your design, add features or work on your app. Send a request from your dashboard and we quote it before any work starts.

    1. Step 1

      Ask

      Describe what you want in your dashboard. Add screenshots or examples.

      Approve the estimate

      We reply with the hours it needs and a date. Nothing is used until you approve.

    3. Step 3

      We build it

      A developer does the work and publishes it to your site.

    4. Step 4

      You sign it off

    Server rendering and API routes, built and run for you.

    Node.js and Express

    How hosting your own website works

    Managing one website in the ONIWC dashboard: status, domains, versions and settings
    One simple dashboard

    Everything about your website in one place

    No control panels to learn. Each area does one job and explains itself.

    Domains & SSL

    Connect a domain with step-by-step instructions, choose your main address, add redirects.

    Files

    Upload, download, rename, unzip and edit your website’s files in the browser.

    Databases

    Create MySQL databases, manage logins, browse tables and import a backup.

    Backups & versions

    Daily backups and every version you published, each one click from being restored.

    Scheduled tasks

    Run reports, clean-ups and WordPress jobs every hour or every night.

    Development & support

    Ask our developers for changes, and open support tickets, from the same place.

    Your own domain, with a padlock

    Every website starts with its own oniwc.com address that works straight away. Connect your own domain when you’re ready: we show you the exact records to add, check them for you and secure the domain with SSL.

    Questions

    Hosting, answered

    I don’t have a website yet. Can ONIWC make one for me?

    Yes. Choose your type of business, pick a design made for it and preview it with your details. We create the full website, with pages, photos, menus and contact details, ready for you to edit and publish. It is hosted for you from the moment it goes live.

    I already have a website. Can I move it to ONIWC?

    Yes. Upload your site as a ZIP file or connect its Git repository. We work out what it needs, set it up and put it online. HTML sites, WordPress, PHP, React, Vite, Next.js and Node.js all work. Laravel works too when you upload it with its vendor folder, because we do not run Composer for you yet. If you would rather we move it for you, we can quote for the migration.

    Do I need to know anything about servers?

    No. We choose the server, install what your site needs, keep it secure and restart it automatically if it ever stops. You see plain statuses like “Live” and get a notification if anything needs your attention.

    Is SSL included?

    Yes, on every plan. Your website opens with https:// and the padlock. We request and renew certificates automatically, including for your own domain once it is connected.

    Can I use my own domain?

    Yes, on plans that include custom domains. Add it in your dashboard and we show you exactly which records to add where you bought it. We check them for you and switch your domain on as soon as they are right. You can also choose a main address and send your other domains to it.

    Do you back up my website?

    Yes, every day and automatically, files and databases both. Your plan keeps a set number of daily backups, and you can restore any of them in one click or download your own copy. We make a safety copy before every restore, so a restore can be undone too.

    What happens if an update breaks my site?

    If a new version fails to start, your current version stays online and visitors notice nothing. If it goes live and you change your mind, put an earlier version back in one click.

    Can your developers make changes for me?

    Yes. Send a request from your dashboard, like a new page, a design change or a new feature. We estimate it and you approve before any work starts. On plans that include developer hours, the time comes from your monthly hours and your dashboard shows what you have used and have left; otherwise we send you a quote.

    What if I want to leave?

    Your website and content are yours. Download your files and databases from your backups whenever you like. If you would like help exporting or transferring a site to another provider, we quote for that work based on what is involved.

    Ready to get your business online?

    Start with a new website made for your business, or bring the one you have. Either way, we look after the rest.
