Scope verdict

Ownership reviewed, controller unresolved

This service remains visible for context, but it is not counted or recommended as a European-controlled option.

How we classify services

Operational dependency warning

Relies heavily on non-European providers

Current public evidence shows 3 non-European infrastructure or email dependencies across 3 providers: Amazon SES, Cloudflare, Postmark / ActiveCampaign. The reviewed operational path is therefore not entirely European.

Review dependencies ↓

Simplenet is a WordPress hosting provider from Romania. Next to the hosting itself it sells extra service plans for customers who want help looking after their site rather than doing everything themselves.

A Romanian host is a European alternative to American shared hosting, and the low entry price makes it usable for personal sites and small businesses. It suits people who want a WordPress site inside the EU without paying agency prices.

Pricing

Shared hosting starts at 2.82 euro per month.
