Largest web hosting providers in Spain 2026

Spain’s position in the global hosting market

Spain is one of the larger hosting markets in Europe, but it ranks behind the leading countries as an international server location. According to data from W3Techs, Spain is currently ranked 13th among the world’s most important server locations. Around 1.5 percent of recorded websites are hosted on servers in Spain. This places the country between Singapore and Turkey in international comparison.

Economically, the Spanish hosting market is also of substantial size. According to Statista Market Insights, revenue in web hosting is forecast to be around US$4.09 billion in 2026. By 2031 it is expected to increase to about US$5.98 billion, an average annual growth rate of around 7.9 percent.

These figures show that Spain plays a relevant role both as a domestic market and as a hosting location. At the same time the market is highly international: alongside Spanish providers, numerous large European and global hosting companies compete for customers and market share.

The largest web hosting providers in Spain: Data sources

Determining the largest web hosting provider in Spain is not entirely straightforward. First, it is necessary to define which criteria should be used to evaluate the “size” of a hosting provider. The selection of data sources likewise plays an important role, as it significantly affects the comparability and meaningfulness of the results.

To obtain the most reliable picture of the Spanish web hosting market, several metrics and different data sources are used to compare providers. The following criteria are applied:

Data on the market shares of web hosting providers in Spain from hostadvice.com

The data on market shares of web hosting providers in Spain compiled by hostadvice.com indicate what proportion of total market revenue a particular web hosting provider accounts for.

hostadvice.com uses a multi-stage process to collect data, merging different sources and analysing them systematically. First, international business directories are crawled to capture as many websites from different countries as possible. These websites are then analysed by a URL crawler that gathers information such as DNS records, geolocation data and Whois data and stores it in a central database. In the next step, an algorithm assigns the collected datasets to the respective web hosting providers, allowing the market shares of individual companies to be derived. The results are continuously processed and published on hostadvice.com's website, updated monthly.

Analysis: The Spanish web hosting market is highly fragmented: with 47.48% almost half of the recorded market share is held by numerous smaller providers outside the top 10. Among the individually listed companies, OVHcloud with 15.47% leads clearly ahead of dinahosting (6.39%), Axarnet (6.03%) and IONOS (5.38%). These are followed by DonDominio (4.49%), Hostalia (3.77%) and other local providers, indicating a comparatively diverse and competitive hosting market.

Usage distribution data for web hosts in Spain from builtwith.com

The usage distribution data for web hosts in Spain compiled by builtwith.com provide information on which web hosting providers are used by which websites.

builtwith.com uses a particularly wide-ranging crawling method for its data collection, which fully covers both country-specific domains (ccTLDs) and generic domains (gTLDs). By analysing more than 16.4 billion websites, it is possible to obtain not only detailed information on the technical infrastructure in use but also precise insights into usage and market distribution across different regions. The collected data are continuously updated and published on the trends.builtwith.com platform at intervals of a few days.

Analysis: The usage distribution clearly shows IONOS with 19.64 % at the top of the hosting providers recorded in Spain. Following are Cloudflare Hosting with 8.30 %, Amazon with 6.58 %, arsys.es with 5.61 % and OVH with 5.44 %, while other providers such as Ahosting, DINA Hosting, Google Cloud and Hostinger each account for shares of just over four per cent. However, 36.69 % of usage still falls to numerous other providers, which again points to an overall highly fragmented market.

Data on the domain distribution of web hosts in Spain from webhosting.today

The data on the domain distribution of web hosts in Spain compiled by webhosting.today provide insight into how many publicly reachable domains can be attributed to individual hosting providers based on their technical DNS infrastructure.

For data collection, webhosting.today uses only publicly accessible technical information. Publicly reachable domains and the DNS or nameservers responsible for them are analysed. Based on this infrastructure, a domain is assigned to a particular hosting provider. The identified domains are then aggregated per provider so that their share of the observable domain landscape can be compared. The results are, however, automated estimates and not official registration or customer numbers. In particular, for providers whose customers use external nameservers, registrar DNS, reseller infrastructures or services such as Cloud DNS, the actual number of hosted domains can differ from the determined values. The time of capture and the technical configuration of a domain can also influence the assignment. Because the same automated methodology is used for all providers, the data nevertheless allow an interesting additional comparison of market presence.

Analysis: In the domain distribution, IONOS at 17% is clearly at the top among the individually listed providers in Spain. Following are Cloudflare at 9.5%, Locaweb at 6.7%, Hostinger and GoDaddy at 5.9% each as well as dinahosting at 5.2% and cdmon at 5.0%. At the same time, 33.5% is accounted for by numerous other providers, which also indicates a broadly distributed and comparatively fragmented market in terms of domain distribution.

Data on search interest for web hosting providers in Spain on trends.google.com

The data on search interest for web hosting providers in Spain, as determined by trends.google.com, indicate which web hosting providers are most frequently searched for on Google.

For data collection, trends.google.com uses information generated via its own search engine. Every search query submitted to Google is recorded and integrated into the algorithm together with overall user behaviour. In this way, not only can search results be continuously improved, but valuable insights into users' interests and behaviour can also be gained. The data prepared in this manner are continuously updated and published on the trends.google.com platform.

Analysis: In terms of search interest, IONOS in Spain, with an average Google Trends value of 29, is well ahead of the other web hosts considered. Hostinger follows with 9 points, with interest having recently increased markedly, while arsys with 7 points and dinahosting and OVH with 4 points each are at a substantially lower level. Overall, this demonstrates a clear dominance of IONOS in brand awareness, while Hostinger is gaining importance as the main challenger.

The largest web hosting providers in Spain: Analysis

We now turn to the analysis, referring to the various data sources.

The evaluation of several independent data sources produces a fairly clear overall picture for the Spanish web hosting market: IONOS can currently be classified as the strongest web hosting provider in Spain. The provider leads both in technical usage distribution and domain share and also records by a clear margin the highest search interest on Google. Only the HostAdvice analysis places OVHcloud ahead of IONOS.

OVHcloud is also one of the most significant providers in the Spanish market, although results vary more depending on the data source. Among the local web hosts, dinahosting is particularly notable. The company consistently achieves high values in several analyses and is therefore one of the strongest native Spanish hosting brands. Arsys also still holds a relevant market position, but today belongs to the IONOS Group.

At the same time, there is a pronounced fragmentation of the Spanish hosting market. In all datasets examined, a considerable share is accounted for by numerous small and medium-sized providers. Alongside international groups such as IONOS, OVHcloud and Hostinger, several established Spanish hosting companies therefore continue to maintain their positions. It is precisely this mix of large international platforms and strong local providers that makes Spain a comparatively diverse and competitive web hosting market.
