Features and Ease of Use
KVC Hosting offers a range of services to cater to a wide variety of clients, including beginner-friendly shared hosting, reseller hosting, business hosting, and dedicated servers. They also provide what they call “SEO hosting,” a rather unique offering in the industry. This features advanced SEO tools and consultations with their in-house SEO specialists. All SEO plans include:
- cPanel 11 and WHM installations
- Website builder
- Unlimited space and bandwidth
- Unlimited emails, FTP accounts, and MySQL databases
- Softaculous app installer with 200+ scripts
- Daily backups
- DDoS protection up to 1Gbps
With these SEO hosting packages, you can choose anywhere from 10 to 600 A-, B-, or C-Class IPs. However, the webpage outlining the specifics of these plans was rather confusing as it was organized with a dizzying array of choices, so it will take some time for you to get through it.
More noteworthy are their shared hosting plans, which are generously packed with features. Termed the “SSD Unlimited” category, they offer the following:
- A minimum of 100GB disk space (can be increased to unlimited)
- A minimum of 1TB bandwidth (can be increased to unlimited)
- cPanel 11
- A minimum of five add-on domains
- Unlimited POP3 emails
- Softaculous app installer
- Dedicated IP address
- RVsitebuilder with 2500+ templates
The dedicated IP address was a nice perk, as this generally comes with more premium paid hosting packages. Beginners will find the free website builder especially convenient to get their website up and running quickly.
Pricing and Support
True to their mission, KVC Hosting’s prices are extremely affordable across the board. Their entry-level shared SSD hosting packages can easily compete with bigger and more well-known hosting providers in pricing and features offered.
There’s no free plan available, but they do offer a 45-day money back guarantee on their shared hosting packages.
KVC Hosting’s customer support is highly responsive, patient, and helpful – they’re particularly adept at guiding beginners through the process of setting up the various aspects of their websites. They offer 24/7 support via live chat, phone, and a ticketing system, and they host an extensive knowledge base.
What’s unique about KVC Hosting is that they have an average a response time of under 15 minutes for support tickets, which is likely what has set them apart from many of their competitors. Live chat and phone are equally impressive, with average wait times of under a minute.
KVC Hosting has had security issues in the past, and many users reported that their websites were hacked while hosted on their servers. It’s not clear if this has been resolved, but considering their dedication to constantly improving their services, it’s highly likely that they have taken steps to address this concern. They’re always striving to make things better!
