Mythic Beasts was started in 2000 by a group of Oxford and Cambridge University graduates who were dissatisfied customers of other shared hosting providers, beginning as a hobby project offering shell accounts on a single shared host. Over the years, the company introduced various services: dynamic DNS (2002), colocation (2003), virtual private servers (2004), dedicated servers (2005), server management (2006), IPv6-only hosting (2015), hosting on Raspberry Pis (2016), one-click SSL provisioning (2016), Managed WordPress (2017), transit to third parties (2018), web and email hosting using Sympl (2019), and APIs for DNS management (2020), Raspberry Pis (2020), virtual servers (2021) and domain management (2021). The company grew from a single server to having facilities in six data centres in Europe and North America, taking on its first full rack in London (2004), a second London site (2005), out-of-London colocation and hosting in Cambridge (2008), a presence in a third London data centre (2012), racks in Amsterdam and California (2018), moved its third London site to Shoreditch (2022), and opened a new core site in the London Docklands to replace its first London data centre which was reduced to an optical point of presence (2024) and then closed (2026). During the same period, it acquired the shared hosting services of Black Cat Networks (2007), hosting provider Bluelinux (2010), the hosting and virtual server provider Retrosnub (2017), and the virtual server providers BHost and VMHaus (2018). Mythic Beasts has grown mostly by profit funded organic growth and selected acquisitions.
