According to its Facebook page, Korea-based Dotname was established in 1998. This hosting “old hand” dubs itself “Korea’s leading hosting provider”, and it aims to provide its customers with technologically advanced hosting solutions.
Dotname offers a wide variety of hosting services, including shared hosting, WordPress hosting, cloud hosting, dedicated servers, and virtual servers. Its servers sit in an IDC data center in Korea.
This vendor’s informative website looks messy when translated into English, but maybe it would be less so in its native Korean. All prices are displayed in Korean won.
Features and Ease of Use
Dotname offers a broad spectrum of Linux and Windows shared hosting solutions. Some of the notable features are:
- PHP support
- MS SQL, MySQL, and phpMyAdmin
- FTP access
- ASP.NET, HTML, and Ajax
- Zend Optimizer
- Apache webserver
- CDN
As you can see, all the hosting essentials are provided, and you get 150 MB to 32 GB storage plus unmetered monthly bandwidth. The CDN speeds up page loading (by caching content locally) and helps protect you against some kinds of cyberattacks.
