📄 Editorial Review
🔃 Web Faction is part of HEG🔧 Services: Web HostingDomain Registration
WebFaction is part of the Paragon Internet Group Limited and they have currently joined up with GoDaddy, a massive hosting company on the web. They offer hosting mainly for developers and claim to host more than 200,000 apps at the moment.
They provide customers with shared hosting and cloud servers. Among the features they include in their servers, we can find the following: SSD storage, the latest versions of tools, such as Ruby, PHP, Python or Node.js. Their hosting system is fully managed and customers are supposed to get shell access to their servers. By using their control panel, you get one-click installer for popular apps like WordPress or Django. Email, DNS and database hosting are also included within packages available at WebFaction.
💰 Price & Cost
Taking into consideration the range of features they add to their servers, the provided prices are good.
Unlike the average refund of 30-day money-back guarantee, WebFaction doubles this by offering their customers 60 days to try their services.
⌛ Reliability
They do not promote any uptime guarantee on their page. Many hosting companies usually mention this as some customers consider it essential. However, WebFacing customers support the reliability of their servers.
🏢 Data Center
Their headquarters are located in the United Kingdom. They also have data centers around other places in Europe, Asia and USA.
✍️ Customer Support
Assistance can be required from the WebFaction support team through phone, email or ticketing system. Documentation and a Q&A community site are also available for customers to use. Customers can also find them on social media platforms (Facebook, Twitter).
🔨 Control Panel
Servers hosted by WebFaction are managed through a custom control panel. This has both advantages and disadvantages, as there are customers who prefer hosting providers to work with cPanel or Plesk (the most popular control panels on the web).
🎯 Conclusion
WebFaction is a reliable hosting provider dedicated for developers. As they are oriented towards them, not being a developer might not give you the best experience with WebFaction. That does not mean, however, that they do not have great services. They offer rich features for their packages and good hosting.🌏 Server locations:
