Founded in 2011, Premium Hosting Chile is a global web hosting provider with data centers in America, Canada, Chile, Holland, and Romania. Not limited to these locations, they also have customers in Mexico, Peru, Argentina, the Dominican Republic, Spain, and other worldwide locations. The common factor for all these customers seems to be the Spanish language, and their website is also in Spanish (unless translated by your browser).
Features and Ease of Use
Premium Hosting Chile offers a range of website hosting services using 100% solid state disk drives (SSD). Their services include shared website hosting, dedicated server rental, reseller hosting, and domain registration.
As standard, their shared hosting packages include the following features:
- 99.9% uptime guarantee
- Daily automatic backups
- Domain registration available at additional cost
- From three to unlimited add-on domains
- Free SSL certificates
- From 5 GB to 100 GB disk space
As their name suggests, Premium Hosting Chile offers a choice of premium hardware using only SSDs that are much faster than traditional hard disks. They also use LiteSpeed web server, which serves static website content faster than any other web server.
Their plans are also very comprehensive. Not only do they offer a rock-solid uptime guarantee backed by SLA, but also they offer multiple domains, unlimited MySQL databases, FTP accounts, email accounts, and subdomains. While they support PHP versions 5.3 through to 7.2, they don’t support advanced scripting languages such as Ruby on Rails, Javascript or Python.
Their shared hosting plans should meet the needs of most users, but they also offer a premium business range for high-volume websites and e-commerce stores, capable of handling tens of thousands of daily visitors.
Pricing and Support
Premium Hosting Chile’s base package – which includes 50 GB data transfer, a free SSL certificate, five add-on domains, and unlimited subdomains – is very affordable and should suit most small to medium-sized website owners. However, the subsequent packages are all relatively expensive when compared to both local and international companies.
Three contact lengths are offered – monthly, annual and biennial – with the price being greatly reduced when you commit to a longer-term plan up front. It’s great that they offer both a no-obligation monthly plan and a discounted longer-term plan, but if you need extra reassurance, you can benefit from a generous 30-day money-back guarantee!
This company does not advertise its hours of business, but they do offer a wide variety of ways to get in touch including Facebook Messenger, email, support ticket, and telephone. They also have a limited knowledge base along with a frequently asked questions page and a server status page.
