Village Hosting has been in the web hosting business for over 10 years. This vendor is based in South Asia and focuses on the provisioning of shared hosting, reseller hosting, VPS, and dedicated server solutions.
Village Hosting is an India-based web hosting provider established more than 10 years ago. The vendor specializes in shared hosting, reseller hosting, VPS, and dedicated server solutions. In addition, the hosting firm offers SSL certificates and web design services. Its headquarters are located in Tamil Nadu, India.
Features and Ease of Use
Village Hosting solutions include the following standard features:
SSD storage
DDoS protected servers
Firewall
One-click installer
Unlimited MySQL databases
Unlimited FTP accounts
Cron jobs
Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate
Free migration
Village Hosting hosting solutions run only on LiteSpeed powered SSD servers, which ensures that all of the websites it hosts record faster page loading speeds than traditional HDD servers. All its dedicated servers include full root access for easy and secure management including reboots and re-installation.
In addition, the hosting provider has deployed RAID protected servers that use AMD Quad (4) Core, AMD hexa (6) Core, AMD OPTERON 2210, and Dual xeon 5420. This all but guarantees high performance and reliability.
This vendor’s hosting solutions use the CloudLinux operating system to improve server density and security by isolating each user and supplying their website with the server resources allocated to them.
While the vendor also provides backup solutions as well as data protection and security, it says little about them to give potential customers a clear picture of what these solutions look like. All the same, the firm also offers SSL certificates as an additional service to its clients. Available certificates include: Symantec, Thawte, GeoTrust, Comodo, and RapidSSL.
Pricing and Support
Village Hosting hosting plans are quite cheap. The vendor offers its clients flexible billing cycles for all its hosting solutions. It also provides free website migration for every hosting plan purchased. Moreover, the vendor offers a 31-day 100% money-back guarantee and a 99.99% network uptime guarantee.
The hosting provider has availed has a phone number,support email, and live chat through which its clients can get in touch with its support team. It, however, has no ticketing system. The vendor says that it offers 24/7 support, but I was unsuccessful in starting a live chat with its support reps. Therefore, I decided to try contacting them via email, however, I never received a reply.
The Village Hosting website does not have a knowledge base, either.
Village Hosting has been growing steadily in the last decade. Today, it has a robust hosting infrastructure that can handle any business website: from small websites that receive a few hundred visits a month, to large websites receiving tons of traffic every day. The apparent downside to this vendor’s hosting solutions is its unresponsive support team.
