Cochin Web Host started its journey in 2004. This Kerala-based Indian web hosting company is powered by 100% renewable energy.
Whether you want shared web hosting, reseller hosting, business email hosting, VPS, or dedicated servers, you’ll find it all here, along with domain registration and transfer, server management, and website design services.
Cochin Web Host’s website supports the English language.
Features and Ease of Use
Cochin Web Host offers 12 shared hosting plans (six cheaper, six Linux Personal, and six Windows), three email hosting plans, six reseller hosting plans (three each for Linux and Windows), four managed cloud VPS plans, and five dedicated servers. The three Linux shared hosting plans provide you with:
- 99.9% uptime guarantee
- cPanel control panel
- One hosted domain
- 100 MB to 5 GB web space
- Unlimited bandwidth
- Unlimited emails
- PHP and MySQL support
- Free SSL certificate
The Softaculous auto-installer helps you easily install over 370 popular applications (such as WordPress and Joomla) with a single click and without technical expertise. As an alternative to a CMS-backed website, you can create your website using the free cPanel website builder or the pay-for SitePad website builder. Either way, you can create a professional web presence without having to be a web designer or developer.
VPS plans provide a choice of ten operating systems, including free Linux distributions or paid Windows versions. RAID 10 storage uses replication to help protect you against potential disk data disasters.
Pricing and Support
Cochin Web Host’s shared hosting plans start dirt-cheap. You can pay for them in Indian rupees on annual or biennial terms by bank transfer or credit/debit card. The 30-day money-back guarantee for shared, reseller, and VPS hosting services should make you feel better about the minimal annual commitment.
You can contact Cochin’s 24/7 customer support team via telephone, ticket, or live chat. I was pleased to receive quick answers to my questions via the live chat channel.
It’s a good thing that the pre-sales support is so efficient because the self-support knowledgebase only contains seven entries.
