Russian web hosting provider Reddock was established in 2015. Its hardware is housed in a modern PCI-DSS certified Tier III data center in St. Petersburg.
Reddock’s Russian-language website sells classic shared hosting, 1C-Bitrix hosting, VPS rentals, domain services, and SSL certificates.
Features and Ease of Use
Reddock offers four classic shared hosting plans, four 1C-Bitrix hosting plans, four VPS plans, four 1C-Bitrix virtual servers, and two dedicated servers (one of which is for 1C-Bitrix).
The company’s classic shared hosting plans provide you with:
- 2 to 50 hosted websites
- ISPmanager 5 control panel (with two-factor authentication)
- 5 GB to 25 GB SSD storage
- Unlimited traffic
- 2 to unlimited databases
- Unlimited mailboxes and subdomains
- IMAP, POP3, and SMTP
- Support for PHP (various versions, with instant one-click version changes)
- Free SSL certificate
- Daily backups
- Cron jobs
- Server access via (S)FTP, SSH, and SCP
You also get an application installer for WordPress, Drupal, Joomla, PrestaShop, phpBB, and many more popular programs.
Your hosted website will sit on Apache or the far faster Nginx web server, which in turn will sit on super-fast SSD storage.
Pricing and Support
Reddock’s shared hosting plans are cheap, and new customers can get a free .ru or .рф domain with annual billing. Individuals can pay for plans in Russian rubles by bank transfer, credit card, or electronic cash (Yandex.Money, Qiwi, or WebMoney). Legal entities have to pay by bank transfer.
Shared hosting comes with a ten-day test period, and some products are eligible for refunds in some circumstances if you request a refund by sending in certain documents.
You can contact customer support by telephone, email, online form, or live chat. Unfortunately, live chat was unavailable when I wanted to try it, and my form submission received no response. The good news is that the self-support Help Center is pretty comprehensive:
