Its shared web hosting solutions come with a great mix of tools and features to help individuals and small business owners create a strong online presence, and if you are running a WordPress-based site with the need for speed, then you’ll be impressed with its WordPress services offered with free three IP addresses.
You’ll also love the SSH access along with developer-friendly features such as Nginx and Apache web servers as well as programming languages like Perl, Python, and Ruby on Rails.
You can choose to install your preferred OS platforms, including Windows distributions as well as Debian, CentOS, Ubuntu, and other Linux operating systems. Website performance features include free Cloudflare CDN and ultra-fast SSD disk storage that, above all, will increase the loading times of your website up to 300%.
By default, all plans come enhanced with spam protection and to keep your data safe and secure, the host performs free automatic daily backups.
Pricing and Support
While VerticHost’s website solutions include high-end features and server specs, the plans are quite expensively priced. Also, it is important to note that (at the time of writing) the shared plans seemed out of stock.
You can pay in euros, U.S. dollars, or Romanian leu. The plans are billed monthly and you can also choose quarterly, semi-annual, or annual subscriptions.
The performance of your website is maintained with a high uptime guarantee of 99.99%. That said, the vendor seems to lack a refund policy or a money-back guarantee.
Users can contact the support team by telephone, email, or the ticketing system. Regrettably, live chat is unavailable. The technical support team remains accessible round the clock, aiding users in promptly resolving their hosting-related concerns. I reached out to this vendor’s support team and received a response within eight hours.
There are several FAQs on its website, and the knowledge base contains about 20 articles.
