About us

Klarned is a 100% European company.

Klarned started as ManagedWPhosting.nl in 2012 by Ramon Fincken. ManagedWPhosting was the first WordPress managed hosting provider in The Netherlands. This grew into the Klarned brand in 2024. We offer managed hosting with our own servers in Europe. Klarned provides 100% GDPR safe hosting (also known as AVG and DSVGO in the Netherlands and Germany).

We offer hosting from shared hosting till tailor-made managed hosting using modern state of the art stacks giving you high end hosting without any fuzz. Smooth and solid, as it should be.

Switching to Klarned felt like Plug & Play.
