*📜 Plan description

Entry-level single-domain DV certificate designed to make it quick and inexpensive to enable HTTPS. The marketing page highlights 256-bit SSL with a $1,000 warranty and issuance typically in less than an hour; browser and mobile trust is 99%+ and the cert is issued off a 2048-bit SHA-2 root. It works for both the apex and the www hostname when ordered for www, so one order covers your primary site without extra SANs. Suited to personal sites, blogs, landing pages, or small carts that don’t need organization vetting but still want padlock indicators, HSTS compatibility, and modern cipher support. Installation is straightforward with cPanel and common stacks; renewals can be repeated yearly with revalidation completed by email or DNS depending on the CA’s process. No paperwork is required, which makes it ideal when you need to turn up TLS quickly for a domain and keep costs to an absolute minimum.

All Hawk Host SSL options are sold per year and integrate with their hosting stack for easy install. Across the range you’ll find SHA-2 chaining, broad device/browser support, reissues during the term, and site-seal graphics appropriate to the certificate type. The provider offers 24x7 help via tickets and sales live-chat for ordering questions, accepts major cards, PayPal, AliPay, and cryptocurrency, and documents how to deploy certificates alongside web hosting or compute services. Free Let’s Encrypt is also available on hosting plans for basic needs, while paid certificates here add warranties and higher assurance levels.

📄 Editorial Review

Hawk Host is a Canadian web hosting provider founded in 2004 with the stated goal of delivering efficient services by combining software development and hosting expertise. They target a broad audience—from entry-level sites to growing projects that need more isolation and control—and place emphasis on performance tuning, modern hardware, and a straightforward support experience available around the clock.

Their product lineup spans Shared Hosting, Semi-Dedicated, Cloud/VPS (Cloud Compute), Reseller Hosting, and Domain Registration. Shared, Reseller, and Semi-Dedicated plans run on cPanel with a familiar feature set: one-click installers (300+ scripts), LiteSpeed web server, Cloudflare optimization, proactive malware scanning, and complimentary daily backups on enterprise Intel Xeon/AMD EPYC NVMe platforms. Free website migration is included, and WordPress users get extra attention with built-in one-click setup plus optional performance helpers like Memcached and Redis.

Cloud/VPS (Cloud Compute) provides full root access and a managed control panel experience (power, console, rebuild, OS templates, usage graphs) with optional cPanel/WHM or DirectAdmin licenses. OS choices are extensive (Ubuntu, AlmaLinux, Debian, Rocky, CloudLinux, Fedora, CentOS, openSUSE, FreeBSD). The stack highlights KVM virtualization, NVMe storage, 40 Gbps server connectivity, and UPS + generator power, with StorPool’s distributed architecture to improve reliability and I/O performance.

Reseller hosting is positioned as a white-label offering on cPanel, suitable for launching a small hosting business. Domain name services include registration with a capable management panel (locking, auto-renewal, privacy, DNS management). SSL is available (e.g., AlphaSSL). Overall, they blend affordable entry pricing with practical tooling and a long operating history.
