📄 Editorial Review

LankaHost is a Sri Lankan web hosting and domain provider that has been active since 2006, focusing on low-cost but reasonably robust shared hosting for local businesses, freelancers, and organizations. The company operates as LankaHost Web Solutions (Pvt) Ltd, and also functions as an official .LK Domain Agent, so it is tightly integrated with the local domain ecosystem. Over the years they have accumulated thousands of active domains and hosting accounts, which shows up in the way their catalog is built around common Sri Lankan use cases rather than generic global plans.

On the hosting side, everything primarily revolves around Linux shared hosting on cPanel with SSD storage and CloudLinux. The entry point is the cPanel Small Business packages, suitable for typical dynamic websites running PHP and MySQL. These plans start from about 1 GB SSD storage and 100 GB monthly data transfer, with features like Apache/PHP, MySQL, and the usual cPanel toolset. They are clearly aimed at brochure sites, small company pages, and lighter CMS installations where budget is a key consideration but basic performance still matters.

Above that, cPanel Business Hosting introduces more generous resources, higher storage, and more domains per account, combined with CloudLinux account isolation, script installer (Softaculous with 200+ scripts), and scheduled backups. These plans are more appropriate for agencies or SMEs hosting several sites under one login, or for CMS-based sites that need a bit more CPU and memory headroom than the smallest packages can offer.

For more demanding workloads, LankaHost runs a dedicated Business Hosting section with two special lines:

• Business Web Hosting – shared hosting with more CPU and memory, capped number of accounts per server, and stricter email limits, designed for corporate or busy business sites.
• Business Ecommerce Hosting – high-resource shared accounts targeted at OpenCart, PrestaShop, WooCommerce, Magento and similar ecommerce stacks. These packages allocate significantly more PHP memory (up to 2 GB), higher process limits, and between 1x and 4x CPU power. Servers use Intel Xeon E3-1271, SSD storage, CloudLinux, LiteSpeed, and a 1 Gbit/s dedicated network, and host a limited number of accounts per machine. Locations are split between Singapore and Florida (USA), which helps with latency for both Sri Lankan and international visitors. This line neatly fills the usual gap between cheap shared hosting and an expensive VPS or dedicated server.

There is also a dedicated WordPress Hosting range. These are still cPanel/CloudLinux plans but tuned for WordPress, with SSD storage, higher I/O and memory limits, remote MySQL access, Node.js support, malware scanning, cPanel SSL, and the same 1 Gbit/s network. For someone running one or a few WordPress sites that need more consistent performance than generic shared hosting, these plans are a more focused choice.

For clients who want to resell hosting, Business Reseller Hosting provides WHM-based reseller accounts on the same business-class infrastructure. Resellers get cPanel for end-users, CloudLinux-based resource isolation, overselling capabilities, and remote MySQL, so it is feasible to build a small local hosting business on top of this platform.

Email is not treated as an afterthought. The Business Email Hosting product line offers what is essentially an enterprise-style mail platform: IMAP/POP/SMTP access, mobile and Outlook support, Spam and antivirus filtering, webmail, DKIM/SPF, and reasonable mailbox limits, designed for organizations that want to run their domain mail with higher reliability without moving the whole stack to Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace. LankaHost also sells cPanel Email Hosting packages and Microsoft Office 365 products through the client area for customers who prefer a familiar SaaS email environment.

On top of hosting and email, LankaHost is heavily invested in domains. They sell both .lk and international TLDs (e.g., .com, .net, etc.), with a dedicated Domain Control Panel, DNS management, privacy protection and transfer tools. For .lk domains in particular, they operate a Cloud DNS system with multiple name servers spread across several US data centers and networks, improving resilience and propagation speed.
A separate but notable product line is the Weebly Site Builder packages, which historically provided drag-and-drop website creation with bundled hosting, email and SSL. These plans have been discontinued for new sign-ups since 01/01/2024, but existing customers still benefit from the underlying business hosting stack (Xeon E3-1271, SSD, 1 Gbit/s network, backups and cPanel).

Windows hosting is available in the form of ASP.NET Business Hosting on Plesk, although these packages are currently marked as sold out or legacy in the order system. They appear to remain in place for existing customers, but the strategic focus today clearly sits on Linux/cPanel hosting, LK domains, business email, and high-powered ecommerce and WordPress plans.

Overall, the portfolio is strongly oriented toward shared hosting, domains, and DNS, with cloud/VPS services technically present in the client-area catalog but not aggressively promoted on the public web pages. For the typical Sri Lankan SMB, agency, or developer who needs reliable cPanel hosting with strong local payment options and .lk domain expertise, LankaHost offers a mature, locally rooted platform.
