How one South African ISP took two crowns

 ·13 Nov 2025

For this year’s MyBroadband Awards, Afrihost has walked away with not one, but two major honours – ISP of the Year and Hosting Provider of the Year.

This double triumph marks yet another milestone for one of South Africa’s most trusted tech brands – and a reminder that success built on consistency and a customer-first approach always stands the test of time.

For Afrihost, the 2025 MyBroadband Awards aren’t just industry recognition – they’re validation of a philosophy that’s guided the company since day one: do things right, put people first, and never stop improving.

A legacy of leadership

Afrihost began as a small web hosting business more than two decades ago, run by a handful of determined entrepreneurs.

They believed that Internet services should be simple, affordable, and genuinely customer-focused – a belief that, over time, would help reshape South Africa’s online landscape.

That same ethos has continued through every chapter of Afrihost’s growth.

The latest recognition, particularly the new MyBroadband Hosting Provider of the Year award, highlights how far that approach has taken Afrihost.

From powering small business websites to supporting massive online platforms, Afrihost’s hosting division has transformed into a powerhouse that is a key driver of South Africa’s digital economy.

Constantly raising the bar

Awards are a reflection of excellence – but they’re also a snapshot of momentum.

Afrihost’s momentum is undeniable.

In the past year, it has rolled out major improvements across fibre, mobile, and wireless connectivity – always with the same focus on flexibility and simplicity.

The AirMobile service is a great example of this. Afrihost overhauled its mobile offering with extremely low data pricing starting at just R2.99 per GB when paired with an allocation of airtime.

All AirMobile plans are month-to-month (no contracts), and the service now fully supports eSIM activation and number porting.

It is modern, effortless, and a perfect solution for South Africans.

More than a brand

Winning two of the country’s biggest Internet awards in one year could easily be seen as the culmination of Afrihost’s journey.

Instead, it is just another step in the journey.

Afrihost’s 2025 wins are a celebration of excellence, but they’re also a celebration of purpose.

Behind the fibre lines, servers, and support desks, Afrihost’s story is about the customers who trust it, the team who builds it, and an ongoing commitment to improvement.

Based on this innovation and dedication to customer service, Afrihost is the deserving winner of the 2025 MyBroadband Awards for ISP of the Year and Hosting Provider of the Year.
