*📜 Plan description

Start Hosting is the first paid shared hosting tier above the free Microplan and is designed for simple but professional projects that need their own space and email without yet requiring databases or complex applications. The plan includes 5 GB of NVMe SSD web space and unmetered monthly data transfer, with capacity for one additional website alongside the main domain so you can host a small pair of sites or a site plus a landing page under the same account. It provides 1 professional email account with 5 GB of storage, which can later be upgraded if inbox needs grow, and is recommended for up to around 2,500 monthly visits, a good fit for basic corporate sites, portfolios, landing pages, digital brochures or simple microsites. Unlike the upper plans, Start does not offer MySQL databases or one click installers, so it is aimed at static HTML sites or lightweight PHP use that does not depend on a database; however, the platform still supports modern PHP versions (from PHP 8.2 up to 8.5), letting you run small scripts and forms where needed. Security and stability are covered by free SSL for the hosted domain, automatic backups so you can roll back files if something goes wrong and the same monitoring and infrastructure as the larger plans. Commercially, cdmon advertises Start at 3.95 EUR per month when you choose annual payment, positioning it as an inexpensive way to move from a pure domain plus free micro hosting into a more capable shared environment while keeping costs predictable.

All cdmon shared hosting plans run on a 100% NVMe cloud platform hosted in data centers located in Spain, with Spanish IP addresses and an infrastructure optimized for performance, SEO and sustainability. Every plan includes free Let's Encrypt wildcard SSL, a LAMP stack with up to date PHP (versions up to 8.5 with FPM), MariaDB databases for plans that include database capacity, daily backups with up to 15 days of restore history, antivirus, firewalls and a Green Hosting certification backed by the use of 100% renewable energy. Customers benefit from free migration from other providers, an in house control panel with one click installation for WordPress, Joomla and PrestaShop on compatible plans, advanced tools such as the Varnish cache layer, Connectilogs log viewer and the Pilotron AI assistant, as well as options to use staging environments, SSH/SFTP and Git where available. Billing is flexible, with volume discounts for multiple hostings, no long term contract, the possibility to pay by credit card, PayPal or bank transfer and a 30 day money back guarantee for new purchases. cdmon markets an uptime figure of around 99.95% for its platform and 24/7 multilingual support by phone, ticket and live chat, so the same technical team can accompany projects as they scale toward larger shared plans, virtual servers or dedicated infrastructure.

📄 Editorial Review

cdmon is a big Spanish hosting and domain provider that has been active since 2002, operating under the legal name 10dencehispahard SLU and based in Malgrat de Mar, near Barcelona. Over more than two decades they have grown into a solid mid-size player focused on domains, Linux web hosting, and managed servers, with a strong emphasis on transparency, sustainability, and technical support rather than pure low-cost volume.

The portfolio starts with domain registration across a broad range of TLDs (.com, .es, .cat, .eu, .shop, .store, .io, .tech and many others). Domain management is integrated with DNS hosting, a WHOIS lookup tool, a Domains API for bulk users, and promotional pricing on popular extensions. There is also a clear European focus, which fits their location and customer base.

For classic shared hosting, cdmon offers a structured lineup: a free Microplan bundled with domain registration, followed by paid plans called Start, Junior, Senior, and Master. All of them run on Linux (Debian) and a 100% NVMe cloud platform built in-house. Storage ranges from very small allocations for Microplan up to 80 GB NVMe on the higher tiers, with unmetered transfer (as long as usage is legitimate), recommended visit limits from a few hundred to several hundred thousand per month, and between 1 and 75 email accounts depending on the plan. Every hosting plan includes:
  • NVMe SSD storage on their proprietary cloud
  • Free SSL (Let’s Encrypt wildcard / multidomain)
  • Automatic daily backups with a 15-day history
  • One-click installation for WordPress, Joomla, PrestaShop, Moodle
  • Built-in Varnish cache, a staging environment, Git deployment, and developer tooling (SSH, Git/SVN, Composer, WP-CLI, cron jobs)

For users who want something more guided, cdmon has WordPress Hosting with AI and a Website Builder with AI. These products are aimed at people who prefer to answer a few questions and let the system generate a site and structure. WordPress comes preinstalled on optimized hosting, while the Website Builder can generate anything from a simple one-pager to a small online shop. For many small businesses this is a practical way to get online quickly without hiring a developer.

Email is treated as a separate product via Mail Hosting, with professional mailboxes and the option to use the same infrastructure even if you do not host a website. Features such as IMAP/POP3, webmail, spam and virus filtering, SPF/DKIM/DMARC, and newsletter-style accounts for bulk sending are all available.

For projects that outgrow shared hosting, cdmon moves into fully managed Virtual Servers (VPS) and Managed Dedicated Servers. The VPS line is flexible:
Between 2 and 16 vCores / 6–34 GB RAM / 150–2000 GB NVMe storage / Up to 20 or unlimited hostings per server / Debian 11, with PHP 8.2–8.5 per hosting

These VPS are 100% managed, including monitoring, updates, security, and backup, so they suit agencies, developers, and SMEs that need more power but do not want to administer Linux themselves.

The Dedicated Servers are the next step: physical machines with Intel Xeon CPUs, NVMe disks and up to 10 Gbps bandwidth, again fully managed and tied into the same NVMe cloud and control panel. They are targeted at high-traffic sites, e-commerce, agencies and resellers needing many hostings, and businesses that want performance and isolation but still prefer the provider to handle system administration.

A notable angle is cdmon’s focus on Green Hosting. All infrastructure is powered by 100% renewable energy and their services are certified by the Green Web Foundation. They highlight the environmental footprint of data centers and position their platform as an option for customers who care about sustainability but still want high performance (NVMe drives, 200 Gbps aggregate bandwidth, and large IOPS pools).

Overall, cdmon is a technically solid, developer-friendly, eco-oriented provider with a clear European orientation. The absence of Windows hosting or cPanel may be a downside for some, but the trade-off is a tightly integrated, custom platform that offers a lot of functionality for PHP-based sites and managed projects.
