Reviews and expert opinion Dreamz Hosting

Dreamz Hosting powers more than 4,500 websites in the U.S.A. and abroad. With scalable hosting and an uptime guarantee, your business should never be slow or run out of hosting resources.

Features and Ease of Use

Dreamz Hosting’s Linux shared hosting plans are loaded with features. The easy-to-use cPanel control panel includes the Softaculous one-click installer with 200+ apps. It also includes a convenient file manager, webmail access, and phpMyAdmin for creating and managing your databases. That’s not all, because you also get the following features:

• Unlimited MySQL databases
• Secure FTP access
• Cron job scheduling
• Free SSL Certificate
• Hotlink & leech protection
• IP blocking

To make your website come to life, you might take advantage of the extensive programming languages and scripting tools that include PHP 5-7, Ruby on Rails, Perl, Python, cURL, and the GD Library. Alternatively, this e-commerce-friendly hosting service lets you set up a PrestaShop or OpenCart online store complete with a product inventory and checkout. You can secure your store with 256-bit SSL encryption, and all your data is backed up daily and weekly in remote locations.

To keep your site secure, remember to do malware and virus scans to stay free from malicious code. Also, don’t forget to password-protect your directories and enable anti-spam on your webmail accounts.

If you want to stage a WordPress website or you have an existing one that requires regular updates or maintenance, you could consider Dreamz Hosting’s WordPress support and maintenance service. It will take away the strain of managing, optimizing, and maintaining your sites so you can focus on your core business instead.

If shared hosting doesn’t meet your hosting needs, you can scale up to a secure VPS with full root access, your specified RAM and storage, and your choice of operating system from a selection of CentOs, Ubunto or Debian. If that still won’t do, you might decide on a dedicated server with 100% uptime and full DDoS protection.

Pricing and Support

Dreamz Hosting’s four pre-configured shared hosting plans’ fixed prices are slightly lower than the industry average. Setup is fast and free, and — surprisingly — you can upgrade your Linux hosting plan whenever you want without experiencing any downtime. You can also create a custom plan based on your hosting requirements, and the “offers” page advertises attractive discounts for SSL and VPS solutions.

24/7 technical support is available via tickets or email. For general inquiries, you can use live chat or the online contact form. For self-support, you’re out of luck because the forum link leads to an error page, the FAQ page is almost empty, and it’s the same story for the almost-empty knowledge base.
