One of the best web hosting providers, Nexcess, has been completely absorbed by Liquid Web just a year and a half after it was purchased by the web hosting brand.
In February 2024, Nexcess was purchased by Liquid Web and has been a subsidiary brand providing managed hosting for WordPress under Liquid Web for just over a year and a half. Before that, it was an independent hosting company for 20 years and was home to big names like Magento.
The merger was originally due to be completed by the end of the second quarter of 2024, but Nexcess continued to exist for some time on its own site where customers could log in as usual. Now, when customers visit nexcess.com, they are redirected to the Liquid Web website.
To log in to Nexcess services, existing customers will need to visit the location where they can access their hosting as usual.
Liquid Web adopts managed web hosting
For new customers, managed hosting solutions are the same, only they are purchased from Liquid Web and have the same expert level of features, security and value for money.
A Liquid Web spokesperson said: “Liquid Web now delivers more value under one brand by offering Nexcess Managed WooCommerce, WordPress and Magento solutions.”
Liquid Web has undergone an extensive rebrand over the past 12 months, reflecting a commitment to professional web hosting services ranging from GPU-powered VPS servers for AI workloads, a variety of management tiers, and managed WordPress solutions on shared servers.
