Introduction

Unsurprisingly, Domain.com started life as a website domain registration business. It has now branched out into several tech space products, with web hosting being just one of them. Domain.com now, therefore, offers a number of shared hosting plans that are charged at an affordable price and yet come with many much needed features like a free domain, an unlimited amount of sub domains and unlimited disk space. It does not offer VPS hosting any longer sadly, but it still has a loyal customer base, likely thanks to those affordable pricing plans that come with fast speeds as standard.

Price

  • Starting at $3.75 a month (billed for a whole year)

Key Feature

  • Great speeds at an affordable price

Key features

Domain.com, with its mid range, affordable plans, is in that part of the market where they must perform on a number of key metrics. To start with, its support team (a vital element for all web hosts to get right) are great. They are contactable through a live chat function and that is available every day of the year, all day. That’s so important as websites have problems any time, so knowing that you have the support on hand to help resolve it is crucial.

In terms of performance on the speed side of things, Domain.com really starts to set itself apart from its competitors. Its uptime is second to none and, importantly, it is really consistent too. It means that when you sign up with Domain.com you can rely upon the company to provide you with a product that you can be confident will work at any time of day.

Perhaps where the company lets itself down a little is at its account set up. The process is at first intuitive, but there are some glitches as to what domain you want Domain.com to help you host. Domain.com is better for those that want to buy a domain through them too, otherwise you may find you have to migrate your site or simply start from scratch again.

You can create a website however through Domain.com which is not something that every web host provider does. However, it’s a little sparse in features and capabilities which can make the process of designing a website a little convoluted and complicated. Once your website has been created, the dashboard you are provided with is fine, though again, it’s a little lacking in functionality. However, what it does can serve certain customers well. So, if you do not need an all singing and all dancing web host product, then Domain.com could definitely be a good option for you - particularly if you consider those quick, and consistent speeds.

Conclusion

Domain.com is not without its problems - like any web hosting provider. However to many, its drawbacks will be made up by its fantastic benefits. Of which there are many - namely, price and speed. Those two factors are so vital to a web host’s product, and Domain.com pushes the boundaries on both. The plans it offers are affordable, even before you take into account the value for money they provide. And they do provide value for money. That’s down to those all-important speeds which are fantastic and will be a huge weight off any web manager’s mind. Uptime is all but guaranteed, leaving customers exceptionally satisfied with the plans they sign up for.
