Website Hosting South Africa - FAQs

Answers to some of frequently asked questions regarding our website hosting in South Africa

Why do i need to have a web hosting plan?

A web hosting platform is basically a place where all your website data is stored. It's an internet server.

In order to have a functioning website, you need three things: a domain name, web hosting, and website files/database.

Without web hosting, your website files won't be live on the internet when someone types in your domain name on a web browser. So if you want your website to be live and accessible to others, you need a website hosting plan. Make sense?

How secure is your web host?

Our website hosting very secured. Is is equipped with automated real-time proactive website security to detect and block threats even before they occur.
