Afrihost is a South African internet services and web hosting company founded in 1999, recognised today as a leading provider in its country. Its roots lie in web hosting—offering domain and hosting packages at a time when local options were expensive—and it expanded into broadband, fibre, mobile and VOIP services while maintaining strong hosting credentials.
Afrihost has built a reputation for reliability and customer-centric service in the South African market. The company has been awarded multiple times as “Hosting Provider of the Year” and “ISP of the Year” in national industry polls, signalling strong trust among businesses and consumers alike. Its services cover shared hosting, VPS, domains, email hosting and business hosting solutions alongside its Internet connectivity offerings.
What makes Afrihost stand out is its emphasis on accessible pricing, flexible contracts (many month-to-month options), and broad service scope that integrates both connectivity and hosting under the same roof. For businesses, especially in South Africa, this means one point of contact for multiple digital infrastructure needs. While the company is primarily focused on the South African market, its long experience and established brand make it a compelling choice for local clients seeking website hosting, domain management and associated services.
