About Our Backup Hosting Service

HostXNow was the first provider to offer backup storage accounts powered by cPanel and CloudLinux.

Our Founder created this service after struggling to find a cost-effective, reliable solution for storing large backups. Competing services were either too expensive, too slow, or too limited. This challenge inspired the creation of a faster and more affordable backup hosting platform, originally built for our own infrastructure — and now offered to everyone.

Today, HostXNow Backup Hosting delivers faster upload and restore times than traditional storage setups thanks to our optimised stack including CloudLinux isolation, and 10 Gbps uplinks hosted in London, United Kingdom. You get enterprise-grade performance, UK data privacy compliance (GDPR), and rock-solid uptime — at a fraction of the cost of “big brand” solutions.

Why Choose HostXNow Backup Hosting?

Our Backup Hosting gives you dedicated cPanel storage space for secure off-site backups. Each account runs in its own CloudLinux + CageFS environment, ensuring user-level isolation and consistent performance. Transfer your data easily using SSH, SFTP, FTPS, rsync, or WebDAV, and manage it directly through cPanel File Manager or Web Disk.

Because this is separate from your main hosting, your backups stay safe even if your primary server fails. You control what, when, and how often to back up — we handle the speed, reliability, and infrastructure behind it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Every Backup Hosting account includes 50 GB of storage for £2.50 per month. If you use more than the included 50 GB, additional storage is billed at £0.05 per extra 1 GB.

Overage is calculated automatically at the end of each month based on your highest storage usage at that time. If you temporarily exceed 50 GB but reduce your usage back below 50 GB before your invoice is generated, you won’t be charged any overage fees.

Bandwidth is fully unmetered — we do not charge for inbound or outbound traffic. You only pay for the monthly base fee (£2.50) plus any extra storage (if applicable).
