Bangladesh-based IGL Web specializes in web design, web hosting, web applications, mobile apps, and desktop applications. This company started out in 2007 as a data entry organization but today provides several web-related services to help you grow your web presence.
IGL Web’s website is available in English.
Features and Ease of Use
Besides web hosting, IGL Web offers reseller hosting, dedicated hosting, web design, web development, domain registration, and many other web-related services. All the hosting services are Linux-based and offer the following features:
Unlimited bandwidth with the higher pans
SSL certificates
9% guaranteed uptime
MySQL database
cPanel
Unlimited subdomains with the higher plans
Your website data is secured by regular backups, and the higher hosting plans come with unlimited bandwidth, disk space, and FTP accounts.
IGL Web includes a website builder and software auto-installer with its hosting packages, so that it’s easy to set up a website without any coding experience. This provider also offers training in website management.
U.S. and Bangladesh data centers, plus servers in the U.S., allow IGL Web to provide fast access to your website from anywhere in the world.
Pricing and Support
IGL Web offers a wide range of web hosting packages on eight different price plans. All prices are displayed on the website in Bangladeshi taka, so you’ll need to take account of the currency exchange rate. A quick calculation tells me that the USD-equivalent prices are reasonably affordable. You can pay for plans by various methods including PayPal, credit cards, bKash, UCash, or wire transfer.
Not sure about signing up? You needn’t worry too much because the 30-day money-back guarantee should allow you to get out within the first month if you change your mind.
Customer support is one of IGL Web’s strong points. You can also contact the company via email, phone, and 24/7 live chat. I discovered that the live chat operator was very helpful and informative:
It’s a good thing that the one-to-one support is so good because there is no real knowledge base to speak of for self-support purposes.
IGL Web’s greatest strength may lie in the additional services it provides besides web hosting, to help you build your web presence from scratch. The only problem is that the company’s website provides limited information about these ancillary services.
Pros
Unlimited disk space and bandwidth
Responsive live chat
Website builder
9% uptime guarantee
Cons
Limited (or no) self-support resources
Website lacking details for some services
To create an entire web presence, IGL Web could be ideal.
