Why True Green®

Eco friendly web hosting

Honest, Eco friendly and 100% Aussie Owned

True Green® Hosting began as a passion project in the year 2000.

The founder, sustainability advocate Ray Pastoors, was creating eco-friendly websites and discovered that they had a carbon footprint due to the energy use based on their size and load time.

Around 2011, Ray ran an ethical digital marketing firm that helped small businesses develop and create websites for small businesses. He also gained experience in larger technology projects in healthcare and financial services.

With over 20 years of experience under his belt, Ray partnered with the best providers to develop one of the first Green Web Hosting offerings in Australia.

Given the number of roles business owners need to juggle, it was no surprise that the service aimed to make things easy and jargon-free.

In October 2023, the service became True Green® Hosting to make a bigger impact.

We can’t name the big guys of the hosting industry (damn lawyers), but don't plan to be like those alligators. Being a business owner myself, I understand the pain of dealing with crazy tech firms who treat you as a number and confuse you. We want to build a True Green® Web Host network that makes things easy as for you like a true daddy, and we’re always here to work together on building that awesome experience."
