📄 Editorial Review

HostDare is a budget-focused hosting provider operated by Hostsymbol Pte. Ltd., with a clear emphasis on virtual servers and network performance rather than just traditional shared web hosting. Their catalogue revolves around KVM VPS in several flavours, including China-optimized CN2 GIA plans in Los Angeles, Japan NVMe VPS on Softbank transit, cheap NVMe VPS in multiple locations, plus SSD-based shared hosting and a small lineup of unmanaged dedicated servers. Shared hosting and domains are there, but the identity of the brand is very much "low-cost VPS with good routes and decent hardware."

They target technically comfortable users, resellers and performance-sensitive projects that still have to stick to a tight budget, rather than beginners looking for hand-holding or fully managed services.

Hosting & VPS Services

HostDare still maintains two shared hosting families, but they sit alongside a much larger VPS portfolio.

On the shared side, there are NVMe SSD plans powered by DirectAdmin and SSD plans powered by cPanel. The DirectAdmin NVMe range (Basic, Deluxe, Ultimate) starts around 15 GB NVMe and scales up to 200 GB, with unmetered bandwidth, 10 to unlimited hosted websites, unlimited email and databases on the higher tiers, Softaculous installers, free migration and 24/7 support. The cPanel SSD line (Starter, Professional, Business) uses "pure SSD" storage and unmetered bandwidth, with the starter plan restricted to one domain and the higher tiers allowing unlimited addon domains and including a free domain on annual terms. CloudLinux isolation, weekly backups and standard webmail/POP/IMAP features make these plans familiar to anyone used to shared hosting.

The VPS catalogue is where HostDare puts most of its energy. The baseline is a series of cheap NVMe KVM VPS plans, with 1 to 6 vCPUs, RAM starting around 512–768 MB and going up to 32 GB, NVMe storage from 10 GB up to 800 GB, and monthly bandwidth allowances that reach 20 TB on the largest plans. These are unmanaged KVM servers with full root access, instant deployment, basic DDoS mitigation (around 3 Gbps) and a choice of common Linux distributions, with Windows available on some larger configurations if the customer supplies a license.

Those basic NVMe VPS lines are mirrored in specific locations:
Los Angeles (USA) / Tokyo (Japan) / Sofia (Bulgaria)

Each location has its own test IPs and bandwidth profiles. The Los Angeles and Tokyo ranges tend to offer 200–500 Mbps or 1 Gbps ports, while Sofia stands out with very high bandwidth caps (up to 200 TB per month) on 1 Gbps connectivity. All follow the same KVM model: unmanaged, full root, instant setup.

Above that, HostDare runs premium routes for users who care deeply about connectivity into Asia. The CN2 GIA KVM VPS range in Los Angeles is specifically aimed at customers in mainland China; plans route traffic via China Telecom’s CN2 GIA and other premium carriers, promising more stable and faster paths back to China. These are available on both HDD and NVMe storage, including AMD-based variants, and are sold as premium China-optimized instances.

There is also a Japan NVMe KVM VPS line located in Osaka, built on Intel hardware and Softbank IP transit. Here the focus is stable connectivity into Japan and the wider Asia-Pacific market, with smaller uplink caps per VPS (tens of Mbps up to around 100 Mbps) and bandwidth allowances from a few hundred GB to several TB per month, again backed by dedicated IPv4 with the option to add more addresses.

For customers who want an entire machine, HostDare offers a small set of unmanaged dedicated servers in the US. These are older but very affordable configurations such as an Intel Atom 2758 (8 cores, 8 GB RAM, 250 GB HDD, 10 TB bandwidth) and an Intel Xeon E3-1240v2 (4 cores, 16 GB RAM, 1 TB HDD, 10 TB bandwidth). They are delivered with root SSH/SFTP, options for extra IPs and disks, and are clearly positioned as budget, self-managed hardware for experienced users rather than fully managed enterprise servers.
