Hostgrid Help Center

Welcome to the Hostgrid Help Center.

Hostgrid manages the infrastructure required to serve custom domains for your applications. It verifies domain ownership, provisions and renews SSL certificates, and routes requests to your upstream while allowing you to apply optional request and response rules.

Whether you’re connecting your first custom domain or configuring advanced routing behavior, the guides below are organized to help you find the right starting point.


New to Hostgrid? Start here to understand the core concepts and connect your first domain.


Upstreams are the origin servers that receive traffic after Hostgrid processes incoming requests.


Learn how domains work in Hostgrid, how SSL is managed, and how to configure domain-specific features.


Rules let you inspect, modify, redirect, or respond to requests before they reach your upstream or before responses are returned to visitors.


Matchers determine when a rule should execute.


Handlers define what happens after a rule matches.
