That's on purpose. After twelve years of quietly keeping websites, email, and backups running for businesses across the country, we figured it was finally time our own site reflected the way we actually work — plain, direct, and built around what you need sorted, not a wall of hosting jargon.\n\n## Why We Rebuilt It\n\nThe old site did its job, but it talked about us the way most hosting companies talk about themselves — plans, tiers, specs. Nobody wakes up wanting \"hosting.\" They want their website to load, their email to land in the right inbox, and one number to call when something's wrong. So that's how the new site is laid out: in plain language, organised around the actual problems you're trying to solve, with a clear next step instead of a pricing table to decode.\n\n## What's New\n\n- **A clearer front door.** The homepage now leads with the things people actually ask us for — websites, email, security & backup, managed IT, and practical AI — each explained in one straight sentence instead of a spec sheet.\n- **A real Help Centre.** Searchable guides for the stuff that comes up constantly — from \"why won't Outlook open\" to how your billing cycle actually works — so you're not stuck waiting on a reply for a two-minute fix.\n- **A proper News section** (the one you're reading this on) for service notices, security heads-ups, and updates — so you hear things from us before you have to ask.\n- **Faster, and it works on your phone.** The old site wasn't kind to mobile visitors. This one is fast wherever you're loading it from — including on the kind of small-town fibre connection we build our own infrastructure to survive.\n\n## 12 Years, One Number to Call\n\nBefore this was a redesign project, it was twelve years of picking up the phone. Twelve years of the same few people knowing your setup, your history, and usually your voice before you say who's calling. Long enough to become \"the team that just handles it\" for the businesses who've stuck with us the whole way — which, if you've read anything else on this site, is basically the whole pitch: **same team, always**.\n\nThat's not new copy written for a rebrand. It's the reason the reviews you'll see scrolling past on nearly every page here all say some version of the same thing — a real person answered, and it got sorted. The website changed. Twelve years of actually answering the phone didn't.\n\n## What's Next\n\nThis is a launch, not a finish line. Over the coming months we'll be adding more to the Help Centre, expanding what's on the News page, and rolling out some of the practical AI tools — like WhatsApp booking bots — that we've already been quietly building for a few clients.\n\nIf you spot something broken, confusing, or just plain missing, tell us. We'd genuinely rather hear it from you than find out on our own.\n\n**Welcome to the new intelli.host**\n",[13,22,27,31,36],{"id":14,"user_created":15,"date_created":16,"user_updated":6,"date_updated":6,"title":17,"url":18,"order":19,"Parent":19,"open_in_new_tab":20,"visible":21,"icon":6,"slug":6},2,"f95fc011-002e-45cb-b937-c5d4da0e37c0","2026-08-28T06:48:26.651Z","Solutions","\u002Fsolutions",1,false,true,{"id":23,"user_created":15,"date_created":24,"user_updated":6,"date_updated":6,"title":25,"url":26,"order":14,"Parent":19,"open_in_new_tab":20,"visible":21,"icon":6,"slug":6},3,"2026-08-28T06:48:26.657Z","Network","\u002Fnetwork",{"id":4,"user_created":15,"date_created":28,"user_updated":6,"date_updated":6,"title":29,"url":30,"order":23,"Parent":19,"open_in_new_tab":20,"visible":21,"icon":6,"slug":6},"2026-08-28T06:48:26.663Z","About","\u002Fabout",{"id":32,"user_created":15,"date_created":33,"user_updated":6,"date_updated":6,"title":34,"url":35,"order":4,"Parent":19,"open_in_new_tab":20,"visible":21,"icon":6,"slug":6},5,"2026-08-28T06:48:26.669Z","Help","\u002Fhelp",{"id":37,"user_created":15,"date_created":38,"user_updated":15,"date_updated":39,"title":40,"url":41,"order":4,"Parent":19,"open_in_new_tab":21,"visible":21,"icon":6,"slug":6},22,"2026-09-03T06:15:22.450Z","2026-09-03T06:19:50.298Z","Contact","\u002Fcontact",[43,67,88],{"id":44,"title":17,"slug":45,"items":46},6,"footer-solutions",[47,51,55,59,63],{"id":48,"user_created":15,"date_created":49,"user_updated":6,"date_updated":6,"title":50,"url":18,"order":19,"Parent":44,"open_in_new_tab":6,"visible":21,"icon":6,"slug":6},9,"2026-08-28T06:48:26.695Z","Websites & hosting",{"id":52,"user_created":15,"date_created":53,"user_updated":6,"date_updated":6,"title":54,"url":18,"order":14,"Parent":44,"open_in_new_tab":6,"visible":21,"icon":6,"slug":6},10,"2026-08-28T06:48:26.700Z","Microsoft 365 & email",{"id":56,"user_created":15,"date_created":57,"user_updated":6,"date_updated":6,"title":58,"url":18,"order":23,"Parent":44,"open_in_new_tab":6,"visible":21,"icon":6,"slug":6},11,"2026-08-28T06:48:26.706Z","Security & backup",{"id":60,"user_created":15,"date_created":61,"user_updated":6,"date_updated":6,"title":62,"url":18,"order":4,"Parent":44,"open_in_new_tab":6,"visible":21,"icon":6,"slug":6},12,"2026-08-28T06:48:26.713Z","Managed IT",{"id":64,"user_created":15,"date_created":65,"user_updated":6,"date_updated":6,"title":66,"url":18,"order":32,"Parent":44,"open_in_new_tab":6,"visible":21,"icon":6,"slug":6},13,"2026-08-28T06:48:26.720Z","AI & WhatsApp bots",{"id":68,"title":7,"slug":69,"items":70},7,"footer-company",[71,75,79,83],{"id":72,"user_created":15,"date_created":73,"user_updated":6,"date_updated":6,"title":74,"url":30,"order":19,"Parent":68,"open_in_new_tab":6,"visible":21,"icon":6,"slug":6},14,"2026-08-28T06:48:26.727Z","Why Intellihost",{"id":76,"user_created":15,"date_created":77,"user_updated":6,"date_updated":6,"title":78,"url":30,"order":14,"Parent":68,"open_in_new_tab":6,"visible":21,"icon":6,"slug":6},15,"2026-08-28T06:48:26.733Z","The team",{"id":80,"user_created":15,"date_created":81,"user_updated":6,"date_updated":6,"title":82,"url":35,"order":4,"Parent":68,"open_in_new_tab":6,"visible":21,"icon":6,"slug":6},17,"2026-08-28T06:48:26.743Z","Knowledge base",{"id":84,"user_created":15,"date_created":85,"user_updated":6,"date_updated":6,"title":86,"url":87,"order":32,"Parent":68,"open_in_new_tab":21,"visible":21,"icon":6,"slug":6},20,"2026-08-28T06:48:26.761Z","Legal","\u002Flegal",{"id":89,"title":90,"slug":91,"items":92},8,"Get sorted","footer-get-sorted",[93,98],{"id":94,"user_created":15,"date_created":95,"user_updated":6,"date_updated":6,"title":96,"url":97,"order":19,"Parent":89,"open_in_new_tab":6,"visible":21,"icon":6,"slug":6},18,"2026-08-28T06:48:26.749Z","Start the chat","\u002F#wizard",{"id":99,"user_created":15,"date_created":100,"user_updated":6,"date_updated":6,"title":101,"url":41,"order":14,"Parent":89,"open_in_new_tab":6,"visible":21,"icon":6,"slug":6},19,"2026-08-28T06:48:26.755Z","Book a call",{"id":19,"user_created":15,"date_created":103,"user_updated":15,"date_updated":104,"site_name":105,"tagline":106,"logo":6,"favicon":6,"company_email":107,"phone":108,"whatsapp":108,"facebook":6,"instagram":6,"linkedin":6,"footer_text":6,"seo_title":6,"seo_description":6,"seo_image":6,"address":109},"2026-08-27T15:48:48.333Z","2026-08-27T15:49:53.080Z","Intellihost","We help South African businesses grow online","help@intelli.host","0875513315","The Heights, 22 Elizabeth Avenue, Pennington, KZN, 4184",1788439061719]
