    FREE PARKING / EMAIL ONLY HOSTING PLANS

    You can park your domain names for free, however, we won't provide a permanent email service. An email service is provided as a courtesy while you are building your website, and for a short period after you go offline. If you require a permanent email service, please refer to our Single Placeholder + Email hosting plan above. Just $7 / month or $70 per year.  

    DNS ONLY HOSTING

    We charge $35 per year for a DNS only hosting plan. This is required if you want to keep your domain with us, but host your email and website elsewhere. If your new web host is able to, you should consider asking for your UDAI and transfering your domain to your new provider instead.

     

    PHP / WORDPRESS / ASP ETC

    We encourage all users to use our own website builder CMS, as it is more robust and more stable and more secure than PHP based websites. If you use CMS like WordPress, you need to remember to do your own security updates. If you do want us to host your WordPress/MySQL/PHP website, we are happy to do that. All PHP hosting fees are the same as our standard or business plans, and include free SSL certificate and SSL hosting. Sorry we cannot offer PHP on the basic plans. There are no page/order limits on PHP hosting. PHP hosting limits are based only on traffic, filespace and mailbox requirements. The benefit of our PHP services over other web hosts is we offer low contention for CPU. We host less than 30 PHP websites currently. Our PHP server is based in Sydney, and runs on AWS infrastructure, using our own custom control panel. Domains, Email and Stats are managed via our CMS control panel. You can use phpMyAdmin to administer your database requirements. A my SQL account is provisioned for all our PHP sites automatically, and details to login are provided inside our CMS. You cannot mix and match your website world website with your PHP website, but we will continue to host your website world website while you build your PHP website. All PHP website account status need to be live/paying before you can access our PHP webserver via FTP. Please contact us to enable PHP on your domain.

    International and NZ Hosting Locations

    Our software is primarily hosted on the most powerful and most popular cloud platform, namely AWS (Amazon Web Services). This allows us to auto provision additional resource during peak loads, so your website won't slow down. 

    We have many web servers located in

    • NZ 
    • Australia
    • Europe 
    • USA.

    We deliver full speed international traffic from all those hosting locations outside NZ. Whereas NZ has capped international speeds. It is best to host your website in Australia, Europe or USA, all of which are on the AWS platform. 

    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

    Sorry you cannot use our CMS software with other web hosts.

    Web hosting is the fee you must pay to rent space on our high speed servers so that your website will be available to general public even when your computer is switched off. 

    Hosting fees do not include Domain Name Registration or Professional Web Design Fees, however, you can use our content management system to build your website for free and you can also use domain names registered elsewhere at no additional cost.
