About HostPoco
Affordable, managed WordPress hosting backed by a decade of WordPress expertise and a mission to do some good in the world.
Our Story
HostPoco was originally founded as an affordable web hosting provider, earning a loyal customer base and strong reviews across platforms like HostSearch, HostAdvice, and WHTop. In 2026, the HostPoco brand and intellectual property was acquired by Marketing the Change, a Liverpool-based WordPress agency with over a decade of experience building, securing, and optimising WordPress websites.
Under new ownership, HostPoco has been rebuilt from the ground up as a managed WordPress hosting provider. Every plan is powered by the same WP Cloud infrastructure behind WordPress.com and Pressable, the platform trusted by millions of sites worldwide. We combine enterprise-grade hosting with the personal, expert support that Marketing the Change is known for.
Why we bought HostPoco: After years of helping clients fix slow, insecure, and unreliable hosting, we decided to offer something better ourselves. HostPoco lets us give businesses and individuals access to world-class WordPress hosting at prices that make sense, while continuing our mission of reinvesting profits into charities, non-profits, and community projects.
