UK2 Group, a global mass market web hosting and online services provider, has joined Your.Online

UK2 Group, a global mass market web hosting and online services provider, has joined Your.Online. Founded in 1998, the group operates a portfolio of established hosting brands – UK2, Midphase, Westhost, and Resell.Biz – serving businesses and individuals across the UK, the US, and international markets.

The group offers domain registration, shared web hosting, email, and online presence tools, supported by UK-based 24/7 customer service. With a strong reputation in the UK market with a leading tech platform and infrastructure, UK2 Group brings scale, technical depth, and operational maturity to Your.Online’s UK business.

This acquisition strengthens Your.Online’s position in the UK hosting market and expands its international footprint in website presence services.

A long-established hosting platform

Launched in 1998, UK2 has grown into a multi-brand hosting group known for reliable services, customer-focused support, and accessible web solutions for SMEs. The group’s portfolio of brands serves distinct geographic markets while sharing a common commitment to uptime, support quality, and ease of use.

The business will continue to operate independently within Your.Online’s decentralized structure. The brands will remain separate, with no integration into other group platforms, preserving existing customer experience and operational continuity.

Ben Law (Your.Online UK MD) and Chris Cousins (UK CTO) will lead the business and its day-to-day operations, supported by the existing commercial and technology management team.

Independent growth with group support

By joining Your.Online, UK2 Group gains access to shared expertise, capital, and peer collaboration across a broader network of online infrastructure and solutions businesses – while maintaining full operational autonomy.

This partnership is designed to support long-term growth, platform investments, and market expansion, without changing how the brands serve their customers today.
