Helping You Get Started
Hipposerve Startup Business Tools
Starting a new business involves countless challenges, from incorporation to financing and daily operations. The last thing you need is the hassle of establishing an online presence.
Thankfully, Hipposerve offers a suite of startup business tools designed to simplify this process.
From selecting your business name to building your website, our "Hippo Helper" team will guide you every step of the way.
Build Your Brand
An Unforgettable Business Name
Creating a memorable brand is a crucial step for any new business, and Hipposerve is here to make it easier with our unique Business Name Generator. Simply enter a keyword, and our tool will generate a list of creative, distinctive business names tailored to your brand's essence.
We also offer the convenience of finding a matching domain name simultaneously, streamlining your branding efforts.
Choosing the perfect domain name is a critical decision in establishing your online presence. It should be memorable, easy to type (even on a mobile phone), and, importantly, available—especially if you already have a business name in mind.
You can quickly check the availability of your preferred domain name by using the form located at the top of all our webpages.
Plus, take advantage of up to 90% off on many of our domains for the first year, or even get it free when bundled with our web hosting services.
Emails aren’t all created equal—especially for business. While fluffypiggy@gmail.com might have been sufficient for personal use, it won’t inspire confidence on a business card.
70% of users trust companies more when their email matches their domain name, rather than relying on a generic address.
For just £2.59 per mailbox, our professional mailboxes align with your domain and come packed with all the expected features, enhanced delivery, and a 30-day email backup as standard!
Investing time and money into a website demands that it be hosted on a fast, secure, and reliable server. Notably, 80% of users will leave a site that takes more than 3 seconds to load, often turning to a competitor.
We offer a variety of hosting options that start from just £0.99, tailored to different needs.
From simple single-page sites to complex business applications. Our hosting plans are designed to scale with your business, facilitating easy upgrades with minimal hassle and downtime as your user base grows.
Your business website is your virtual shopfront, crucial for enhancing visibility and reputation—even if you don’t sell directly online.
Starting out, we understand the need for a quick and budget-friendly website setup. Our Hippo Builder is designed for this: it’s easy, fun, and lets you launch a professional website in minutes at a fraction of the cost.
For those interested in a WordPress site, we offer specialized hosting. Plus, if you need a design agency, our Hippo Helper team can connect you with trusted professionals. Just reach out!
Once you've set up your domain, email, and website, it's crucial to protect your investment. Whether your site took significant time or money to create, maintaining it is essential.
Our Hippo Pro Tools solutions offer comprehensive care with website backups, enhanced security suites, 24/7 monitoring, backend updates, and even blog post updates.
One of the most valuable tools for any startup is reliable support. Knowing there's a team ready to assist when issues arise with your website can provide peace of mind. You shouldn't have to worry about troubleshooting technical problems when you have a business to manage.
Our Hippo Helper Team is always on standby to answer your questions, resolve technical issues, or offer advice on any of our services, ensuring you can focus on running your business smoothly.
Contact us easily through various methods. Whether you prefer sending a letter to our postal address, reaching out via email or giving us a call, we're here to assist you with a friendly and prompt response.

“Even though I pay a very small amount of money for my product, The Hippo couldn't help me enough, I wasn't made to feel like I wasn't worth his time, in fact i was flattered that even though a lower paying customer I was still given the individual customer care. He was really patient and helpful. Thanks so much for helping me to sort everything I needed. Best email service ever. I'd highly recommend Hipposerve to everyone, especially people who, like myself, aren't "tech savvy". Thanks again!”

"The service in both technical and hosting is that of premium, 5 star and the relationship I have with them is very strong. They host and provide elite technical support for four of my businesses within the private business and health sector and have been on hand to provide both incredible support since that time began. The best investment and asset, by far, I have to my portfolio of businesses. Thank you for the fantastic support, the ongoing premium service and helping me and my business grow from the ground up. It’s meant everything, the world and every bit more. "

All I can say is WOW (and that's a good WOW btw…)
I engaged Hipposerve for our site a little over 5 weeks ago, and all I can do is sing their praises—they have been truly phenomenal.
Professionally I know lots of web design agencies and have used various companies over the years, but for our latest project I decided to use Jason and Hipposerve off the back of glowing testimonials of a number of clients of mine.
And the service has been first class.
Given a very tight deadline, a bigger and more complex site than most and a high spec list, they absolutely smashed it – in 3 weeks…
Above and beyond my expectations.
Cannot recommend highly enough, only with I could issue 6 stars….

"I am the chairman of a small charity. Hipposerve advertise that they host charity websites for free so, having designed a website myself, I contacted Hipposerve and this was confirmed. Our charity has had to pay for nothing but the domain we chose to use. The service I have received from Hipposerve has been outstanding. The website I had designed needed to be transferred to the WordPress platform. This was done by Hipposerve absolutely free-of-charge and the website became live within two days of ordering the domain. My contact at Hipposerve has been quick to respond to email enquiries and has provided as much help as one could possibly expect. Who could ask for more?"

Hipposerve are a fantastic company to work with. They host our website and have also helped some of our clients with their hosting and website transfers too. They are completely on the ball, they reply really quickly and they can't do enough to help you. I wouldn't work with anyone else and I'd highly recommend them if you want a fantastic service at a very competitive price!

I often get asked, “Is hosting included?”
The answer is yes, hosting is always included in our packages along with a free SSL, unless the client specifically wants to continue using their own provider.
It just makes life easier for our clients at the end of the day!
Although, when I first started the business I didn't offer hosting as I didn't have a supplier I was 100% happy with. I tried Site ground for a while which was fine until their support got hidden deep behind a wall of “find the help you need from our knowledge hub”. Some of my requests for help started to be denied as well unless I went for a higher plan. I wasn't best pleased.
I was therefore delighted to be introduced to Hipposerve I've used Hipposerve as Your Site Matters Ltd hosting supplier for more than 2 years now. My business wouldn't be the same without the knowledge that the brilliant team has mine and my clients' backs when we need support. The agency hosting service is excellent, and I'd highly recommend it to any of my fellow agencies out there.
So thank you, Hipposerve. You and the Hippo Helpers are awesome and appreciated 🙏

"I had 54 email addresses with over 25,000 emails (nearly 20GB of data) that I wanted to transfer. Hipposerve worked with me to set the best possible transfer date, when things would be quiet and they worked through the night to ensure that everything was up and running by Monday morning. The new email system is far superior to our old one too. Thank you for your support"

"I run a small voice over company, it's more of a hobby rather than a business and I needed somewhere to host it that was fast and reliable. My existing provider, actually one of the 'big players', was charging me a fortune with a slow service and substandard support. Hipposerve's support has been brilliant, and to top it all, I am paying less!"

I have had some awful experience with other well known companies, but this friendly Hippo has restored my faith in hosting my own domain name. The service is excellent, and the transfer couldn't have been easier or more straight forward. Thanks so much."
