BeeHosting began its journey in 2008, since when it has come a long way to offer cheap, modern and innovative website hosting services to its global clients.
BeeHosting’s server park is in the Linxtelecom datacenter in Tallinn, which is protected by robust security measures, backup power supplies, duplicated precision air conditioners, and dual diverse fiber connections to Helsinki, Stockholm, Moscow, and St. Petersburg. The company also has its own infrastructure in Amsterdam, Riga, and the U.S.
Services include shared and VPS hosting, dedicated hosting, domain name registration, SSL certificates, and SiteLock security. To date, BeeHosting has won 17 awards and has hosted 27,000+ websites. Its own website supports Latvian, English, Estonian, Russian, and Lithuanian languages.

BeeHosting’s CMS hosting plans come ready with PrestaShop, osCommerce, Magento, Zen Cart, or WooCommerce, so you can easily set up an online shop in minutes.
BeeHosting offers 99.9% uptime guarantee.
Pricing and Support
BeeHosting’s shared hosting plans are pretty affordable but beware the 20% VAT element added at the checkout. You can pay for the plans in euros via Visa or Mastercard, PayPal, Danske Bank, SEB, Swedbank, WebMoney, QIWI wallet, or Bitcoin.
BeeHosting offers monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, and annual billing cycles, and the 30-day money-back guarantee means you don’t need to worry too much about signing up.
You can reach BeeHost’s 24/7 support staff via phone, email, online feedback form, and a ticket system. When I tested the ticket system, I got a reply within ten minutes:
BeeHosting offers a helpful knowledge base and keeps their blog regularly updated, making it convenient for self-support. One thing to note is that some of the knowledge base articles are not in English. However, when translated by my browser, they are still perfectly understandable, so it shouldn’t pose a problem.
