What Argeweb does

Argeweb B.V. is a Dutch web hosting provider, founded in 1999 and headquartered in Zwolle, Netherlands, operating as a Business Unit under the Yourhosting (Your.Online) parent group. The company's core offering spans shared web hosting, virtual private server (VPS) hosting on HP Enterprise blade servers with SSD storage and Microsoft Hyper-V virtualization, domain name registration across 500+ extensions, professional email hosting, and resale of Microsoft 365 (Business Basic, Business Standard, Apps for Business, and Enterprise tiers, plus Exchange Online and Teams). Supporting services include SSL certificates, automated WordPress/Joomla/Drupal hosting, webshop hosting for WooCommerce and Magento, web design and webshop build services bundled with maintenance, and the RankingCoach SEO tool. Infrastructure is housed across four ISO 27001-certified Dutch data centers (GlobalSwitch, InterXion/CyrusOne, GYRO Center, and XS4ALL DC2), registered as green/CO2-neutral through The Green Web Foundation.

Argeweb's business model is subscription-driven across all product lines, with monthly, annual, and multi-year billing and aggressive promotional first-period pricing (e.g., shared hosting from \u20ac0.99/month for the first three months; VPS from \u20ac4.95 first month; domain registration from \u20ac3.99 for .nl first year). List pricing on shared hosting tiers ranges from \u20ac19.99 to \u20ac31.99/month; VPS tiers scale from \u20ac21.99 to \u20ac329.99/month; Microsoft 365 from \u20ac7.99 to \u20ac19.99 per seat per month. Revenue is diversified across multiple revenue streams: hosting subscriptions, VPS subscriptions, email/Exchange subscriptions, Microsoft 365 resale, web design services, SSL sales, domain registrations, and SEO services. Channel economics include a tiered reseller program (Silver/Gold/Diamond), an affiliate program via Daisycon, and bundling strategies to lock in switching costs.

The company targets Dutch SMBs as its primary segment, with secondary segments of Dutch enterprises (via Microsoft 365 Enterprise for 300+ users) and web designers/digital agencies (via the reseller program). Go-to-market combines product-led growth through self-service online ordering with inside sales via a phone-based servicedesk (085-0218861), supported by a 30-day money-back guarantee and free migration assistance. The company claims 56,103+ customers, 21 years of experience, a 4.6/5 rating across 332 reviews on hostingvergelijker.nl, and the #1 ranking in the Emerce Top 100 2024 for VPS hosting. All operations are concentrated in the Netherlands with no disclosed geographic expansion beyond that single-country footprint.
