Welcome to IONOS

1&1 was born in 1988, with the main aim of making information technology easy for everyone to understand and use. Committed to delivering powerful, reliable and secure products, 1&1 engineered its own data centre architecture and extensive network with locations in Europe and the US, we manage more than 6 million customer contracts and host more than 22 million domains in our own regional data centres around the globe, build up their web presence and take advantage of increasingly more sophisticated digital services.

This launch of mass-market hosting, combined with years of experience building server hardware tailored for cloud applications, was complemented by strategic acquisitions to create a fully fledged hosting leader. 1&1 cemented its position as the provider of world-class hosting solutions and largest domain registrar in Europe.

Robust infrastructure portfolio in hand, 1&1 then integrated cloud-based digitisation applications and tools into its offering, enabling businesses of any size to safely and simply take advantage of the benefits of the cloud.

Evolution not revolution – from January 2020, we will be known as IONOS. We remain committed to being the 1&1 brand for domains, email and websites. The new logo is based on the old one, and represents innovation, reliability and experience. As a valued customer you will continue to have access to our core products and services alongside first-class web hosting, fully scalable cloud solutions and award-winning individual support.
