A new hosting service, statichost.eu, is pitching itself as a static-site platform built entirely on European infrastructure and European-owned companies.
The service’s homepage says it is designed for frontend developers who want a simple workflow: push to git, connect a custom domain and deploy. Its sharper claim is where the stack lives. Statichost.eu says every layer, from deploy infrastructure to CDN, runs on European infrastructure owned by European companies, with no AWS and no Cloudflare involved.
The site frames that as a deliberate alternative to the way many “European” hosting products still depend on American cloud providers under the hood. Its founder, Eric Selin of Stockholm, says he wanted an option that kept the whole system inside Europe rather than only placing servers there. That includes the deploy path and the delivery network, not just the machine running the app.
The landing page is aimed at a familiar audience: people building static sites with common generators and deployment tools. It says that if a project builds to static files, it should work on the platform. It also says the first site can be deployed for free and that the process should take about two minutes.
For developers, the pitch is less about novel functionality than about supply-chain and sovereignty concerns. The site’s copy suggests a market opening for teams who care not only about reliability and speed but also about the corporate and geographic ownership of the infrastructure they rely on. In practical terms, that may matter most to European businesses, public-sector teams and privacy-conscious projects that want to minimize exposure to non-European cloud dependencies.
Statichost.eu’s positioning also reflects a broader shift in hosting rhetoric. Many platforms now sell convenience first and infrastructure details second. This one does the opposite. The homepage foregrounds jurisdiction, ownership and vendor choice before it talks about features.
There is no sign on the landing page of a broad general-purpose cloud platform or dynamic application hosting product. The service is narrowly scoped to static hosting, which is also part of its appeal. By focusing on one class of workloads, it can make a simpler promise and avoid the complexity that comes with full-stack app platforms.
The result is a product page that reads as much like a statement of values as a software launch. The message is that European developers should not have to accept “European” branding layered on top of US-owned infrastructure. Statichost.eu wants to sell a cleaner version of that idea, with the company, the infrastructure and the CDN all kept on the same side of the Atlantic.
For teams that care about where their site lives, the launch adds another option to the static-hosting market. The differentiator is not just speed or simplicity. It is the claim that the entire chain, from git push to content delivery, stays European.
