SerwerWeb.pl

When we start our adventure with the first website, we often wonder where to start, so the most important thing is domain this is our identification address, our showcase under which we will be recognized by others. I will write about domains a little later, today we will deal with hosting.

First, let's ask ourselves what hosting is, for some, web hosting is still a magic concept even then, when they find out, what is behind it.

All websites are running continuously, from morning to evening. If the website is placed on your home or work computer, if it had been turned off at night, no one could see that page. That is why computers are rented out, that work around the clock, and places the website there. Then, regardless of the time of day or night, everyone can visit it, view and use it freely. Such a computer is a server, and the service, consisting in making space and resources available on it, is referred to as hosting.

I decided to test lots of hosting companies to get the most out of them top3 top hosting companies for all budgets.

Of course, this is only my subjective opinion, so anyone can disagree with it.

Below you will find ranking of the best web hosts.

#1 Hostmark.pl – Fast, and CHEAP hosting with great customer service.

HostMark has it all, what good and cheap hosting should have. Low prices (from 123 PLN gross / year), decent technical parameters and fast, specific customer service.

HostMark.pl offers a 7-day free trial period, in which we can test the hosting thoroughly.

I felt at home at hostmark, I am not another number in the database that leaves money, and I have become part of the family due to the individual approach to each case . Hostmark offers help via e-mail and telephone, which is a great advantage where you can talk to a living person and present the problem in your own words. It is worth adding that the company offers 24 1-hour technical support, so when a problem occurs, no matter what time it is, we will not be alone with it.

I checked it carefully, I wrote them an email at 2:30 at night the answer i received after 4 minutes you hear so well po 4 minutes, the man wrote back to me with a solution to the problem it's probably a record. You can see that there is no fake there and help is provided 24/7/365

W hostmark.pl we will buy the entire set of services, domain, server, ssl certificate. So everything you need to run a website on the web. The company does not use any hooks like the first year cheaper, and the next year the cost increases threefold on the contrary, with longer payment periods, you can agree with the price and also receive it 1-2 months free.

Hostmark relies on the latest technologies. All servers run on disks SSD NVMe, which are 11x faster than standard SSDs.

The servers are based on LiteSpeed, which is up to 75x more efficient than the popular Apache or Nginx servers. Additionally, servers are available to clients Redis i Memcached, the inclusion and setting of which increases the speed of dynamic web pages, limiting the number of queries to databases.

HostMark secures our email by default with record SPF, DKIM, i DMARC.

Backups at HostMark.pl are made every 24 hours at night. Hosting stores backups of all data in your account (files, databases, e-mail boxes) by 7 days. To restore the copy, you have to write to the technical support, but when we do it, the company restores the copy almost instantly, I checked it! the time after which my copy was restored is 9 minutes.

HostMark offers and supports free SSL certificates issued by Let's Encrypt. This is already a standard nowadays.

We can find HostMark automatic app installer (install itself) such as e.g.. WordPress, Joomla, Magento or Prestashop, which allows you to run e.g.. A blog on WordPress with a few clicks in the panel and entering a few settings. All that, without having to create a database and other tiring activities. Click and after a few moments our bug, shop, CRM or other tool is installed.

At the moment, if something appears, I will update this information.

#2 Zenbox – hosting “bez zmartwień”

Zenbox.pl is hosting a bit different than all the others. This company's hosting plans depend on the number of users on the site (we charge for visits) a month. So we have 10k plans (do 10 thousand. users), 25k, and 50k.

Unfortunately, the cost of the smallest package is as high as 344.40 zł / gross annually. quite a lot. It is true that we can buy hosting on a monthly basis, but it is not completely profitable because the monthly cost is up to 49.20 / gross!!!

Zenbox.pl offers a 14-day free trial period, in which we can test the hosting thoroughly.

Zenbox offers a 30-day money-back guarantee, if we wanted to quit.

By moving away from the competition you can even count on 9 months of using hosting for free.

Zenbox offers technical support in the system 24/7 /365 so we can count on help at every hour and every day.

The company does not offer telephone contact, only e-mail or not? rather not when we are able to arrange everything quickly via e-mail, although it would be nice to talk to a human and present the problem in your own words.

I checked it carefully, I wrote an e-mail to them, the first response was about 1 hour after writing the application. It's not bad, but it could be better.

Servers in zenbox .pl are based on LiteSpeed, which is up to 75x more efficient than the popular Apache or Nginx servers. Additionally, servers are available to clients Redis (in price, from 25k packets up) i Memcached (for an extra charge) the inclusion and setting of which increases the speed of dynamic web pages, limiting the number of queries to databases.

Zenbox works on SSDs. They are much faster than old and good disk drives (HDD), but they're not the fastest disks used in hosting either (as SSD NVMe).

We go to the topic of one of the most important ones, i.e. backups, and here zenbox has something to be proud of, it is probably the only hosting company that offers such a rich backup.

The Zenbox backups are performed 4 times a day. The company creates file backups, databases and mail co 6 hours.

Copies stored and archived by 7 days. We can restore everything from the customer panel, you have access to them and you can restore the selected copy at any time.

During my tests, there were no problems with the operation of the service. The test page was loading lightning fast. None of the tested scripts caused any problems and worked as they should. During testing, I didn't have any performance issues.

Zenbox.pl is a great hosting with billing not for resources but for unique users, if you are looking for such a solution, be sure to check them out.

Benefits

• Backups co 6 hours (!)
• 30-day money back guarantee
• do 9 months of hosting for free when moving
• Extensive knowledge base

Disadvantages

• the smallest package from PLN 344
• No Redis in the cheapest plan
• File limit on the hosting account

#3 Dhosting.pl – Elastyczny web hosting

dhosting.pl ma w swojej ofercie… 1 hosting plan www. But not just any! Flexible Web Hosting adjusts itself to the customer's needs. In its most modest form, it guarantees 50 GB of space (SSD drives), 1 GHz CPU i 1 GB of RAM. In addition, dhosting.pl provides, among others. unlimited domains, MySQL databases and e-mail addresses. The package cost is for 246 PLN gross per year.

Od niedawna – jako odpowiedź na obecną sytuację panującą na rynku – firma umożliwia zakup Elastycznego Web Hostingu za 23,30 PLN net per month (28,66 PLN gross).

dhosting.pl offers a 14-day free trial period, in which we can test the hosting thoroughly

At dhosting.pl, servers automatically adjust to the conditions and operate regardless of the load. The package can be customized to the maximum 24 GHz CPU, 64 GB RAM i 1 TB SSD! The company also cares about the efficiency of its hosting. So it supports SSH, PHP 7.4 oraz LiteSpeed. Due to its flexible nature, at dhosting.pl, settlements are made in the prepaid system – doładowuje się saldo, from which funds are collected for current needs.

When it comes to the speed of dhosting.pl hosting itself, this is where the stairs begin.

While the wordpress script with lscache works great, other scripts are not necessarily. Loading the page on wordpress took the server about 1 second. This is a good result, it was the same for the previously described hosts, both hostmark.pl and zenbox.pl

The problems started when I tested the performance of the Nextcloud script at Hostmark.pl, the script was loading within limits 1-3 seconds, zenbox.pl took it 3-5 seconds which is also not a bad result. DHosting was loading this script in between 10 a 30 seconds !!! I have absolutely no idea it caused such a long response time but it is huge.

I will just add that none of the basic parameters have been exceeded.

All standard email hosting options, such as service catch-all, aliases, redirects whether email autorespondery are available in dhosting directly from the panel. Just like that, how white / black list of email addresses and basic spam filters.

Backups in dhosting are performed every 24 hours, that is once a day. And that's OK. Worse, that the hosting stores only 3 recent backups, so in case of any failure or problems on the site, better to react quickly, bo po 72 hours we will lose a backup of the files.

It is also worth remembering about it, that a copy of the mail is kept only by 24 hours.

Dhosting just like zenbox.pl, it allows you to restore copies from the customer panel, you have access to them and you can restore the selected copy at any time.

dPanel - because this is the name of the hosting management panel in dhosting, is the company's proprietary solution, works really cool, we can find everything without any problem, the whole thing works quickly and conveniently.

In the hosting management panel we can also find integration with the Cloudflare service, which works very well. Launching Cloudflare comes down to a few clicks in the management panel and a subsequent change of DNS records. From the panel level, you can later enable or disable DDoS protection with one click.

The dhosting.pl Customer Service Office works around the clock and replies 7 days a week.

Benefits:

• Flexible resource scaling (to 24 GHz CPU, 64 GB RAM i 1 TB SSD)
• Redis server
• Integration with Cloudflare
• Convenient, an intuitive hosting management panel

Disadvantages:

• Outdated versions of PHP and MySQL
• Backups only with 3 last days (mail from 24h)
• Performance issues with non-wordpress scripts
