Global Dedicated Server Hosting (GDS Hosting) is a web hosting powerhouse that doesn’t only do dedicated servers. Thousands of customers each year use its fast and dependable rental servers and cloud VPS.
Features and Ease of Use
If you’re looking for user-friendly but premium-quality hosting services with lots of features, GDS Hosting’s cPanel Linux hosting could be what you want. It comes with:
- A free domain name with annual plans
- Unmetered monthly bandwidth
- RAID 10 storage
- PHP & MySQL Support
- One-click installs
GDS Hosting offers multiple server locations and a 99.9% uptime SLA, so you can host your websites and apps on servers closest to you but accessible to visitors around the world and around the clock. If uptime falls below the specified level in any month, you can claim a month’s free hosting credit within seven days.
If you’re moving from another cPanel host, you’ll be familiar with this provider’s cPanel control panel that comes with the Softaculous one-click installer and its 100+ free scripts for blogs, forums, or CMS systems. For something more simple, anyone without coding experience can use the RVsitebuilder to build a responsive website.
Once your website is up and running, you can ramp up its performance with the free Cloudflare CDN, and optimize it for search engines using the Attracta SEO tool.
Every domain you register at GDS Hosting qualifies you for free domain forwarding and a lifetime free DNS service with domain theft protection.
When you upgrade to dedicated hosting, you gain access to a pool of IP addresses, pre-built configuration options, and full control over your server. You have the freedom to customize your disk, RAM, and processors, and even install the operating system of your choice. Rebooting your server is quick and easy from your control panel, or you can submit a ticket for a reboot within 30 minutes. Rest assured that all servers are covered by a hardware replacement guarantee, ensuring that any failed component will be promptly and adequately replaced.
Pricing and Support
New users can choose from several low-cost shared hosting plans or affordable rental servers, paid for monthly or annually by Bitcoin, PayPal, or cash. If you’re unhappy with the quality of the service, you can cancel your plan and request a refund within 30 days.
You can contact this company via various methods such as support ticket (from your client area) or email. Since I was curious to know whether GDS Hosting’s servers were managed or self-managed, I decided to ask the question. A live chat agent responded to my message within three minutes:
