HypeX Digital Becomes Sri Lanka’s First Digital Marketing Agency with Carbon-Reduced Website
HypeX Digital Marketing Agency in Sri Lanka, are proud to announce that we have become the first digital marketing agency in Sri Lanka to implement a carbon-reduced website through the adoption of 300% green-powered web hosting.
In an industry that has yet to prioritize sustainable digital infrastructure, HypeX Digital is pioneering environmental responsibility by hosting its website with GreenGeeks, a platform that puts back three times the energy it consumes into the grid via renewable energy investments through the Bonneville Environmental Foundation.
“While Sri Lankan hosting providers have begun offering environmentally friendly hosting solutions, our research shows that digital marketing agencies in the country have not made sustainability a part of their corporate identity,” said the Founder of HypeX Digital. “We’re changing that paradigm by making our website carbon-reduced rather than merely carbon-neutral.”
Research Confirms Industry First
A comprehensive analysis of the digital marketing landscape in Sri Lanka confirms HypeX Digital‘s unique position.
Leading agencies currently show no evidence of using renewable-powered hosting or promoting sustainable web practices on their corporate websites.
While some local hosting companies have embraced green technologies mirroring international brands approach and offering “100% climate-positive” reseller plans with reforestation initiatives, digital marketing agencies have lagged behind in adopting these practices.
Beyond Carbon Offsetting
Staying true to our hallmark of being bold and being extraordinary, HypeX Digital’s approach goes beyond traditional carbon offsetting.
Our website footer prominently states, “HypeX Digital website’s carbon footprint is not offset, but reduced,” highlighting the distinction between neutralizing emissions and actively reducing them through renewable energy investment.
The internet industry consumes enormous amounts of energy and currently accounts for about 2% of the world’s carbon emissions, equivalent to the entire airline industry.
By 2040, this could grow to 14%, matching the United States’ total emissions. We believe digital agencies must lead by example in addressing this growing environmental crisis.
Environmental Impact of Digital Infrastructure
Through using the services of GreenGeeks, HypeX Digital is a part of significant environmental initiatives.
300% Renewable Energy Match
For every kilowatt of energy their website uses, three kilowatts of wind and solar energy are invested back into the grid
Tree Planting
One tree planted for every hosting account through GreenGeeks’ partnership with One Tree Planted
EPA Recognition
Supporting a Green Power Partner recognized by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
This sustainable approach aligns with HypeX Digital’s broader mission to help businesses transition from print to digital media, which itself reduces deforestation and environmental impact.
Setting New Standards for Sri Lanka’s Digital Sector
As digital marketers, we guide businesses toward impactful online strategies. Now we’re guiding our industry toward a more sustainable future.
We hope other agencies will follow our lead in making environmentally responsible choices for their digital infrastructure.
HypeX Digital serves clients across Sri Lanka and the broader Asian and American markets, offering a comprehensive suite of digital marketing services including web development, social media marketing, SEO, content creation, and more, all now has the opportunity to be supported by carbon-reduced hosting infrastructure.
