Elgg Hosting

Open source social engine platform.

Elgg is an elegant, open source platform for online communities. Equipped with must-have social networking features, Elgg gives users access to a comprehensive site activity stream, blogging tool, flexible activity notification methods, collaborative group discussion facilitation, and much more.

Elgg has a wide variety of plugins capable of flexing and extending the application to meet your community’s needs. Since 2004, active users and independent developers have created dozens of add-on modules that allow you to incorporate message boards, social bookmarks, and privacy controls on your website, just to name a few.

As an open source solution, Elgg’s code is freely available for anyone to use or adapt. Unfortunately, this means hackers have easy access to the code too, giving them an open invitation for exploitation.

As a secure web host, FireHost is the perfect hosting solution for open source web applications like Elgg. Our top-of-the-line hardware and network environment, coupled with a worldwide content delivery network (CDN), ensure your Elgg-powered website loads quickly and reliably every time.
