Nigerian web hosting company TFhost was established in 2004. It supplies local and global customers with affordable and fast web hosting services, domain services, and SSL certificates, plus SiteLock security and web design services. This host has a Tier 4 data center, and it has won several awards, e.g., from the Nigeria Internet Registration Association (NIRA).TFhost’s website is in English.
Features and Ease of Use
TFhost offers six shared hosting plans (with an additional plan in the store), four reseller hosting plans (available in the cart), three VPS plans, and three dedicated server solutions. You can also get nine web design plans.
The shared hosting plans provide you with:
- cPanel control panel
- 99.95% uptime SLA
- 2 GB to 50 GB disk space

If you’re not comfortable coding a website from scratch, you can use the free website builder that comes with mobile-friendly templates for all kinds of websites. Alternatively, or as well, you can install WordPress or another content management application within seconds with the Installatron installer.
Other attractions include DDoS protection and an impressive SLA-backed 99.99% uptime guarantee.
Pricing and Support
TFhost’s shared hosting plans are dirt-cheap. You can pay for plans in U.S. dollars or Nigerian naira on annual to triennial billing cycles by bank transfer, credit/debit card, Paystack, or the CashEnvoy payment gateway. At the time of this review, there were several promotions for free domains, free hosting, and free SSL.
First-time shared and reseller hosting customers can take advantage of a 30-day money-back guarantee to get out early (with a full refund) if anything goes wrong.
You should be able to summon support via telephone, ticket (for logged-in customers), online contact form, live chat, or WhatsApp. I say “should” because my support approaches seemed to fall on deaf ears.
Premium and Corporate hosting plans come with remote support, and there is a well-stocked knowledge base for self-support:
