📄 Editorial Review

Gospel iDEA is a Brazilian hosting and streaming provider with a strong focus on Latin American customers and Spanish-language services. The business has operated under the Gospel iDEA brand since 2006, giving it around two decades of experience in web hosting, virtual servers, online radio, and video streaming. The current Brazilian company is IDEA TELECOM LTDA, registered under CNPJ 57.315.783/0001-10, with its main business address in Barueri, São Paulo. Jorge Daniel Ferrufino Duran is associated with the company as partner and administrator.

The service catalog is considerably broader than a basic hosting provider. Gospel iDEA covers Shared Hosting, Professional Email, Domain Registration and Transfers, Reseller Hosting, Domain Reseller services, VPS, VPS Reseller, Dedicated Servers, Radio Streaming, Video Streaming, Streaming Reseller plans, mobile applications for broadcasters, and HTML5 streaming players. Its strongest specialization is clearly streaming, especially Internet radio and online television.

Web Hosting uses NVMe storage together with cPanel. Hosting Persona includes 5 GB of storage, 500 GB monthly transfer, one website, one MySQL database, and 15 email accounts. Premium increases the allocation to 20 GB and 2 TB of transfer, while Empresa provides 50 GB and 5 TB. Premium and Empresa also include unlimited MySQL databases and email accounts.

Shared hosting includes SSL certificates, a website builder, Softaculous, Imunify360 security, automatic backups, and migration assistance. The website builder includes more than 200 templates, while Softaculous simplifies installation of WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, Moodle, PrestaShop, and hundreds of other applications. Customers choosing annual billing receive two months free.

The security package is stronger than what is normally included with low-cost shared hosting. Imunify360 provides malware scanning and firewall protection, SSL is included, and backup restoration is available through cPanel. Free SSL applies to web hosting and reseller accounts when the domain uses Gospel iDEA nameservers, the account remains active, and enough disk space is available for certificate operation.

Reseller Hosting uses cPanel and WHM with NVMe storage. The plans provide between 10 and 30 cPanel accounts, 20 GB to 60 GB of NVMe storage, and 500 GB to 1.4 TB of monthly data transfer. Resellers can create their own hosting packages, assign independent cPanel accounts, use private nameservers, and migrate existing cPanel accounts without an additional migration charge.

A separate domain reseller platform is also available. The service is based on ResellerClub technology and provides a white-label control panel for domain registration, renewal, transfer, and customer management.

VPS Hosting is available in standard HDD and Premium NVMe configurations. Entry-level VPS plans start with 1 vCPU, 1 GB RAM, 15 GB disk space, and 500 GB bandwidth, while larger configurations reach 8 vCPU, 8 GB RAM, 200 GB disk space, and 4 TB transfer.

Premium VPS plans use NVMe storage and begin with 1 vCPU, 1 GB RAM, 20 GB NVMe storage, and 1 TB transfer. Higher configurations reach 8 vCPU, 8 GB RAM, 200 GB NVMe, and 4 TB transfer. VPS activation is normally fast after payment confirmation, root access is included, and migration from another provider is available.

The VPS Reseller program is volume based. Customers purchasing three to five VPS instances receive a 10% discount, six to ten receive 15%, and eleven or more qualify for 30%. This structure can work well for small hosting companies or agencies that want to sell virtual servers without maintaining their own hardware. Root access, SolusVM, migration assistance, and optional hosting control-panel services are available.

Dedicated Servers are unmanaged and include full root access. The range includes Intel Xeon X3430, Intel X5650, Intel E3-1270 v2, and AMD 4284 systems, with configurations starting from 8 GB RAM and 500 GB storage. Listed systems include 10 TB transfer, five usable IP addresses, and a 100 Mbps connection.

cPanel/WHM or DirectAdmin can be added to dedicated servers when a full hosting environment is required. The dedicated range is better suited to customers who are comfortable managing their own server because administration is not included by default.

Professional Email is based on Open-Xchange and can be purchased independently of web hosting. The entry package includes 5 GB per mailbox, while the larger corporate option includes 25 GB. POP, IMAP, webmail, antivirus protection, and a responsive web interface are included. A minimum purchase of five mailboxes applies. Open-Xchange also provides contacts, tasks, calendars, and additional collaboration functions.

The Radio Online platform is one of Gospel iDEA's strongest products. Radio Play supports 100 simultaneous listeners, unlimited transfer, 1 GB AutoDJ storage, and streaming up to 128 kbps. Radio Smart increases capacity to unlimited listeners, 10 GB AutoDJ storage, and 1,024 GB monthly transfer. Radio Max adds 30 GB AutoDJ storage, 3 TB transfer, 192 kbps streaming, and customized iOS and Android applications.

Both Shoutcast and Icecast are supported, together with MP3, AAC+, SSL streaming, AutoDJ, and continuous broadcasting. This makes the service suitable for Internet radio stations, churches, community broadcasters, music projects, and organizations that want to operate a 24-hour audio channel.

Streaming Reseller extends the same platform into a white-label service. Start, Smart, and Max packages support 5, 10, and 15 radio accounts respectively. Unlimited listeners, AutoDJ, SSL, and large monthly transfer allocations are included. Resellers can use CentovaCast or SonicPanel, create customer accounts, monitor listener statistics, and provide HTML5 players.

Video Streaming is designed for live Internet television and supports OBS, vMix, and other RTMP-compatible broadcasting applications. The plans range from 100 simultaneous viewers on Start to 800 viewers on Max, with HD or Full HD streaming, HTML5 playback, and social-network retransmission.

Larger video plans include YouTube and Twitch restreaming, Google TV support, and customized Android or iOS applications. WebTV functionality can automate broadcasting with uploaded video files and scheduled playlists whenever no live transmission is active.

Customized Radio and Video Streaming Apps are available for Android and iOS. Radio apps can display the current artist and song while integrating Facebook, X, Instagram, WhatsApp, and the station website. The Radio Max package includes a mobile application, while custom applications can also be ordered separately.

Video applications support functions such as Picture-in-Picture, automatic screen rotation, and social-network integration. This gives broadcasters a complete package extending beyond hosting into branded delivery applications.

Domain registration and transfer are available through the customer platform. Retail examples include .COM at $18.00 per year, .NET and .ORG at $22.99, and .ES at $9.99. Numerous country-code and new generic extensions are supported, while domain resellers receive a separate wholesale pricing structure.

The main Gospel iDEA website is primarily in Spanish, reflecting its Latin American customer base. The billing and customer platform has much broader localization, including English, Portuguese, French, German, Italian, Romanian, Russian, Chinese, Arabic, Dutch, Czech, Danish, Swedish, Turkish, and other languages. Checkout supports USD, BRL, and BOB.
