Features and Ease of Use
Despite being a smaller company, they provide all the basic services you need for a well-rounded hosting experience:
- Domain registration
- Free SSL certificates
- 99.9% uptime – independently verified by a third-party service
- Free migration
- Daily backups
- PHP support with OPCache technology to increase PHP script execution speeds
- MySQL databases
Alojared’s hosting also comes with the following features to make it more meaningful to their customers:
- CMS Hosting: With their shared hosting plans, you can choose the CMS of your choice to be pre-installed for you, although they offer WordPress-specific plans as well.
- SSD Storage: All products run on SSD storage for the best disk reading performance.
- DDoS attack protection: With DDoS attacks becoming increasingly more prevalent, a basic level of security is vital for every website.
- LiteSpeed and LSCache: Both of these tools are installed on almost all their solutions and will help you drastically improve your web hosting server’s performance.
There doesn’t seem to be much to complain about when using Alojared, at least from a features or ease of use standpoint. With the option to install some of the best and most popular website building platforms around, all Alojared clients can work with a platform that’s familiar to them. The vendor’s own website is also modern and user-friendly with a standard signup process. There are a few more options to configure than usual if you go with a dedicated server or VPS plan, but that’s to be expected.

All hosting plans at Alojared come with a 30-day satisfaction guarantee, under which you’ll be given a full refund if you’re not happy with their service.

Alojared claims that they answer over 90% of their support queries within an hour and that customers have given them an average rating of 4.8/5. Based on my experience, I can confirm that they do indeed provide some of the best support out there. They suggest using tickets to submit queries, but you can also reach them through live chat or phone lines. The only aspect they could work on is their knowledge base, which is currently incomplete and appears to be a work in progress.
