We are heartbroken by the events unfolding in Ukraine and the toll it takes on civilians. We’ve received many concerned thoughtful notes from clients, and while we do not have offices or employees in Ukraine, we stand in solidarity with the Ukrainian people, because a stand for Ukraine is a stand for peace.
Here are some of the actions we’re taking within our scope to show our support in these extremely difficult times for all.
Helping Ukrainian Customers with Free Hosting
* Free renewal of hosting accounts of clients from Ukraine – we are extending all expiring hosting accounts of clients from Ukraine for free;
* Free hosting for new signups from Ukraine – all new hosting accounts of clients from Ukraine are currently free of charge;
Helping Ukrainian kids to continue their education
We will donate laptops to an organization helping Ukrainian kids who had to leave their homeland and take refuge abroad to continue their education. This will be an ongoing effort, since we believe supporting children to go back to their usual routines as much as possible in these extremely difficult times is essential.
Helping Ukrainians with job opportunities
* Proactively reaching out to Ukrainian people with job opportunities – our team is proactively sharing job opportunities with local organizations working to help Ukrainians looking for work opportunities abroad;
Raising Awareness
It is astounding to see the world is uniting against violence and looking for ways to help. However, nearly 150 million Russian citizens are not fully aware about the course and the scale of the actions in Ukraine for various reasons, including media and Internet censorship. That’s why we decided to try and convey a direct message to them.
In addition to not accepting new orders from Russia, from today all Russian traffic going to our main website is redirected to a page showing our plea to stand for peace and end violence.
All SiteGround clients wishing to express their solidarity with Ukraine and help raise awareness can also add this page to their website for their Russian website visitors. If you’re a SiteGround client and wish to join our initiative, log in to your Client AreΠ° and go to your website Site Tools section to show our Stand With Ukraine page to all traffic coming from Russia to your website with a click.
We sincerely hope for an expedient path to peace. Together we can make an impact.

This means a lot to us! Thank you a lot from all Ukrainians.
Love the Idea and did it, but why is it in English?
That’s the main language of our site but thanks for the feedback, we will check for translation options π
This is wonderful … thank you! Slava Ukraini!
Many thanks to your team for active stance on russian aggression against Ukraine and your support!
Could that single message also explain why it is a war and why we are against it? Otherwise it’s just a headline that disagrees with what their state media is telling them…
Thanks for the recommendation, I will pass it on to the team.
Great initiative
Yea! Thank you very much, Siteground! I`m proud of you!
Good work. Great to have the option to display a Ukrainian page for solidarity on our websites.
Does this initiative of free web hosting sign-ups only include new clients located in Ukraine? What about refugees based outside of Ukraine at the moment? Can we also take advantage of this generous offer?
We will get in touch with you over Email π
Glad to see you taking a stand. And while (most) Russian civilians are innocent in all this while being lied to by the Kremlin, it would be nice to hosting services such as yourselves adding messages and warnings to the backends of Russian sites hosted by you advising the webmasters of what is actually going. Like links to live RSS feeds or Twitter so they can see for themselves.
Thanks for supporting Ukraine.
Please write more about this war.
I use this banner, but I don’t like that russians are called “our Russian friends”.
The russian nazis are killing my friends in Kyiv, Mariupol (our biggest pain), and shooting at my Odesa.
They are enemies forever.
This is great, thanks for doing this, Nikolay!
SiteGround doesn’t provide services for Ukrainian companies. It gives an error “SiteGround services are not available in the selected country.” when you select Ukraine on sign-up. (
We sincerely appreciate your interest in our services. Regrettably, we are currently unable to accept new sign-ups from Ukraine. This is due to local regulations and tax-related factors that have made unfeasible for us to offer our service in your country. As such, you will not be able to register from there. Should there be any changes in the future regarding our service availability, we will update our website to reflect that information. We appreciate your understanding in this matter.
I get this answer about free hosting for Ukrainians “Indeed we had this special promo back in 2022, but it is no longer available. Unfortunately, we can no longer accept new signups from Ukraine”
Hello Serhii. Unfortunately, we are unable to accept new sign-ups from Ukraine at the moment, due to local regulations and tax-related factors π We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. If there are any changes in the future regarding service availability in Ukraine, we will update our website accordingly. We appreciate your understanding in this matter.
