📄 Editorial Review

IP.GR is a long-standing Greek internet services company, operating under the legal entity IPGLOBAL IKE and based in Thessaloniki. Founded in 2000, it focuses on domain name registration, web hosting and broader IT and e-commerce solutions for Greek and European businesses. Over more than two decades they have evolved into a one-stop shop: domains, shared hosting, semi-dedicated and reseller hosting, email hosting, SSL, e-commerce and advisory services for online presence.

The company positions itself as a local, experienced provider with physical offices in Thessaloniki that customers can visit. They emphasise long experience (over 26 years of activity now), close relationships with clients and tailored advice, not just commodity hosting. Alongside hosting and domains, they also offer consulting, development of web and e-commerce applications, and IT/network studies for businesses that want to modernise their infrastructure and online presence.
On the domain name side, IP.GR covers a very broad portfolio: classic .gr and .ελ extensions, .eu, .com, .net, .org and a long list of modern gTLDs. Domain management is done through their own portal, and every domain comes with a bundle of extras at no additional cost: free hosting, free email, domain parking, DNS control, web and email forwarding, domain redirect, "for sale" page and a starter page. They work directly with the .gr / .ελ / .eu registries and act as a reseller for many other TLDs, so they are not just reselling another retail platform.

For web hosting, IP.GR builds everything around cPanel, CloudLinux and NVMe SSD storage in European data centres. The main ladder of shared hosting is the Standard Line, with plans such as Standard Value, Standard Power and Standard Premium. These use Apache web servers, include a PHP version selector, Sitejet website builder, Installatron auto-installer, unmetered traffic, unmetered disk space (subject to inode policy), free SSL certificates and 24/7 monitoring. Resources like CPU, RAM, I/O and concurrent processes are clearly specified per plan, so customers know what they are buying. Backup is handled through "Standard Backups" (2 daily + 1 weekly), and all plans benefit from automatic setup, no long-term commitments and a money-back guarantee.

Above that sits the Business Line, aimed at busier websites and e-shops. These plans run on LiteSpeed Web Server with NVMe SSDs, improved CPU and RAM allocations, and a "Business Care Pack" that upgrades backups to 7 daily + 4 weekly, adds instant snapshots and selective restore, strengthens email protection and raises support priority. Business hosting is specifically recommended for WordPress + WooCommerce stores: IP.GR suggests starting with a Business Value plan (with a symbolic 1 € one-month trial) and then upgrading or renewing for longer terms once satisfied. LiteSpeed’s LSCache plugin is highlighted for further performance optimisation, especially for WooCommerce.

For projects that have outgrown classic shared hosting but are not yet at VPS level, IP.GR provides the Semi Dedicated Line. These are still cPanel accounts, but with significantly higher, "semi-dedicated" resources per customer. Plans such as SD Basic, SD Value, SD Premium and SD Ultimate build on LiteSpeed and NVMe SSDs, add more CPU cores (up to 4) and RAM (up to 8 GB), and come with the Business-level backup, snapshot and support features. They are clearly aimed at resource-hungry WordPress sites, applications and busy e-shops that need consistent performance under load.

The WordPress hosting section is less a separate product and more a guide on how to map WordPress and WooCommerce sites onto the existing Standard, Business and Semi-Dedicated lines. IP.GR emphasises automation (one-click install, auto backups, auto updates), security (CloudLinux OS, free SSL, antivirus) and performance (SSD/NVMe, LiteSpeed, PHP Selector). They offer to measure the actual resource usage of an existing WordPress site, advise on the right plan based on CloudLinux statistics and back everything with a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Beyond web hosting, IP.GR sells Email Hosting as a separate product for those who only need professional email on their own domain. Four plans (Value, Power, Premium and Ultimate Email) cover from 1 mailbox with 2 GB storage up to 30 mailboxes with 30 GB total space. All include unmetered traffic, free SSL, cPanel management, advanced spam and virus protection, Business Backup (7 daily + 4 weekly backups with 1-month retention) and priority support. They specify hourly sending limits per plan and advertise a 99.9% availability guarantee, 24/7 monitoring, instant setup, no commitments and a money-back guarantee.

There is also Reseller hosting, allowing agencies and IT partners to sell hosting to their own clients. These plans use the same technical stack (cPanel hosting on NVMe SSD, CloudLinux, free SSL, Sitejet, Installatron) and are positioned for designers, developers and resellers who want to leverage IP.GR’s infrastructure without building their own. The site also references servers (VPS, Dedicated and Cloud servers) hosted in European data centres, though details and configuration options are less prominent than for shared hosting, and are mostly mentioned as part of the wider service portfolio rather than fully detailed on the main English pages.

Finally, IP.GR wraps this around additional services: SSL certificates, free hosting tied to domains, ID Protect and domain backorder services, e-commerce packages, service transfer tools for moving from other providers, and various consulting and development offerings. The website is fully usable in Greek and English, which is important for their primarily Greek but increasingly international customer base.
