Our story

The host we
wished existed.

Web7 Technologies is a small, independent hosting company in Albuquerque, New Mexico. It was started by a cybersecurity professional who spent years auditing hosting companies, and decided to build one that does things properly.

Independent since 2020

Bootstrapped, no investors

Placeholder bio

Before founding Web7, Zig Warner was head of IT for a global security company, helping more than 100 government agencies improve their security posture.

Part of that work was auditing hosting companies. Time after time, their security practices fell short. Web7 grew out of those audits: a hosting company built with a security-first approach from day one.

Outside of Web7, Zig shares tech content with more than 100,000 followers on TikTok.

A personal channel, mostly about tech. It isn't about Web7, but it's a good way to get to know the person behind it.

How we got here

From auditing hosts to running one.

The short version of how Web7 came to be, and where it's headed.

01

Before Web7

Years in security

Leading IT at a global security company meant working with more than 100 government agencies, and auditing the hosting companies they relied on.

02

The idea

Build it properly

Instead of writing another audit report, build a host that gets it right from the start: owned hardware, layered firewalls and backups an attacker can't delete.

03

Today

VPS only, no shortcuts

Fully managed WordPress VPS hosting on servers we own, in a SOC 2 certified data center in Albuquerque. No shared hosting, no white-labeling, no investors.

04

Next

Growing carefully

VDS and bare-metal servers, a second data center in the Twin Cities, solar power, and one day, community data centers with free tech classes.

What we believe

The rules we run Web7 by.

CUSTOMERS FIRST

Customers, not investors

We're bootstrapped. Every decision answers to the people we host, not to outside investors.

SECURITY

Security from day one

Four firewalls from different vendors, fast patching and backups you can restore but an attacker can't delete.

How we secure every server →

HONESTY

Honest specs

We publish exactly what each plan includes and what every spec means. No padded numbers, no "unlimited" fine print.

What our specs mean →

OWNERSHIP

We own the metal

Our servers are ours, built and run by our team. We don't white-label or resell anyone else's hosting.

COMMUNITY

A good neighbor

A small power footprint, closed-loop cooling and a plan for solar. Not that kind of data center.

GIVING BACK

Hosting for good causes

Starting in 2027, we plan to donate server resources to nonprofits, including groups focused on autism, ADHD and mental health.
