HeroHosty is an Indian hosting company that has grown rapidly since being established as recently as 2017. With servers located in the U.S.A., it now provides professional shared hosting, reseller hosting, VPS, dedicated servers, and domain services to more than a million customers in 170+countries.
HeroHosty’s highly polished, interactive, and informative English-language website presents prices in Indan rupees.
Features and Ease of Use
HeroHosty’s three shared hosting plans — Starter, Professional, and Business — provide these features:
- SSD storage
- Free Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate
- 99.9% to 100% uptime
- cPanel control panel
- PHP, Perl, Python, and Ruby on Rails
- Memcached and Redis
- Unlimited MySQL and MariaDB databases
- SSH access
- One-click installer
- Free site builder
- LiteSpeed webserver
- Unlimited parked, addon, and subdomains
The Starter plan provides the lowest disk space of 2 GB, which is only enough for small websites without videos. The Business plan provides 10 GB of storage for more demanding websites, but it’s still a little limited. The number of hosted websites varies from one to five (depending on the plan you pick), and bandwidth ranges from 100 GB to 1 TB.
HeroHosty provides the popular cPanel control panel and everything else you need to create and manage a hosted website. The Softaculous installer helps you install hundreds of web apps such as WordPress, Joomla, and Drupal. And if you don’t want a CMS-backed website, you can instead use the SitePad website builder to create a professional web presence without having to be an expert web designer or developer.
Hosted websites sit on the LiteSpeed webserver, which in turn sits on SSD storage for performance and reliability. Additional performance improvements come courtesy of the Cloudflare CDN.
Pricing and Support
HeroHosty’s shared hosting plans are pricier than many Indian competitors, but they’re still competitive in the international market. Although there is no free domain and no free trial, you do get a 7-day money-back guarantee.
Although HeroHosty’s knowledge base is pretty poor (containing only one article), its one-to-one pre-sales support via live chat is much better:
Other ways to contact the company include telephone, ticket, and email, and this host is also active on social media.
