Although Domenca has existed in its present form since 2003, its origins can be traced back to 1999. It became a DHH Group company in 2016, and it is headquartered in Slovenia’s capital, Ljubljana. To date, this host has registered more than 200,000 domains and created 1,000 websites for over 100,000 satisfied subscribers.
Domenca’s website supports Slovenian and English.
Features and Ease of Use
Domenca offers four unlimited shared hosting plans, six reseller hosting plans, and nine VPS plans. Three additional website building plans include a starter plan with free hosting, free email, and a free website if you transfer a domain to the company (or register a new one).
The five unlimited shared hosting plans provide you with:
- cPanel control panel
- One to unlimited hosted websites
- 2 GB SSD to unlimited SSD disk space
- Unlimited traffic
- PHP versions 4.4 to 7.2
- Free SSL certificates
- Anti-spam protection
- Daily backups
- Google Ads credit
Apart from the lowest “Email Start” plan, these hosting plans let you install over 200 applications and are optimized for WordPress, Drupal, and Joomla. For e-commerce, the “Unlimited” plan provides support for PrestaShop, WooCommerce, and Magento.
If you’re new to building a web presence, the three website packages provide a user-friendly website editor that will help you publish a professional, responsive website without having to have specialist technical knowledge.
Performance features include the LiteSpeed Web Server (which is faster than Apache) and SSD storage (which is faster and more reliable than HDD). You get 99.98% uptime, so your website should be online almost all the time.
If shared hosting doesn’t cut it for your needs, the VPS plans give you root access, granting complete control of your server.
Pricing and Support
Domenca’s shared hosting packages start cheap, and at the time of writing this review, they were even cheaper due to a “twenty years of operation” promotion. You can pay for plans in euros via PayPal, credit card, or bank transfer on billing cycles from monthly to triennial.
One of the best bits is that you get a generous 60-day money-back guarantee, which is twice as long as the industry average.
Self-support resources include a blog and a support section with several tutorials arranged into intuitive categories. If these resources don’t answer your questions, you can contact Domenca’s customer support team via telephone (during extended office hours), email, or live chat. I got quick answers to my questions via the live chat channel.
