Features and Ease of Use
L3Web Hosting offers four cPanel shared hosting plans — Start Up, Standard, Professional, and Advanced — which include these key features:
- SSD storage
- SiteLock security
- cPanel control panel
- SSL certificate
- Software installer
- Virus scanner
- Backups
- 99.9% uptime guarantee
- Daily backups
The smallest plan provides 2 TB bandwidth, 1 GB disk space, two MySQL databases, two email accounts, and two subdomains. It should be suitable for anyone wanting to experiment with web hosting without breaking the bank, or an existing webmaster with a small website that doesn’t attract much traffic.
The largest plan provides 80 TB bandwidth, 30 GB disk space, and unlimited resources: MySQL databases, email accounts, and subdomains. This plan would be better for small to medium-sized websites that attract heavy daily traffic.
SSD storage, which is significantly faster and more reliable than traditional HDD storage, accommodates hosted websites. Our system performs daily backups to ensure the safety of your data. Furthermore, we enhance the security of your hosted website through a blend of SiteLock, which conducts scans for malware and other malicious threats, along with a free SSL certificate and a virus scanner.
L3Web Hosting has customized the cPanel control panel to make it even easier to use. However, if you’re looking for an alternative to cPanel hosting, you could instead consider the Linux Plesk hosting packages. Besides the different control panel, they also differ slightly in disk space and bandwidth.
Whichever control panel you choose, you get a software installer for popular programs like WordPress.
Pricing and Support
In comparison with its international peers, L3Web Hosting’s prices are competitive for the features on offer, and you can pay via PayPal or a major credit/debit card. All but the smallest plan can be billed monthly, semi-annually, annually, biennially, or triennially, and the 30-day money-back guarantee gives you a month to change your mind.
I have to tell you that the self-support resources are poor. There are only a few frequently asked questions, and the knowledge base is bare. It’s a good thing, then, that I could get quick answers to my questions via the live chat channel. Other support channels include telephone, ticket, and email.
