📄 InfoOffering shared hosting and domain registration in South Africa. Why is Host4africa so cheap? We host our servers in the USA, where bandwidth is VERY cheap. We have experienced IT personnel that know how to get things done fast and reliably. We do not include telephonic support in our options as a standard. If we were to do this, we would have to increase prices. We have a highly automated system. We give our clients a large amount of control over what they can do with their domain via our [...] Read full reviewNEW 2019: On the hosting side, we just offered basic web hosting services. Now we have VPS, Website design & marketing and Website security. And during that period we have bought 10 other hosting businesses to beef us up.
