*📜 Plan description

Soho pours a single-site espresso shot: host 1 domain on 30 GB of ultra-fast NVMe SSD, ride unlimited 1 Gbit/s bandwidth, and secure every URL with free Auto-SSL. A free first-year domain, Softaculous 1-click WordPress installer and weekly JetBackup snapshots make it a low-risk launch pad for blogs, portfolios or landing pages that crave speed without complexity.

All MochaHost shared plans run on AMD EPYC cloud nodes with CloudLinux account isolation, unlimited SSL, global POP deployment options, automatic migrations, JetBackup restores, and a 30-day money-back guarantee backed by a 99.9 % uptime SLA and 24 × 7 chat, phone and ticket support.

📄 Editorial Review

MochaHost (acquired by Cloud Equity Group in July 2019 and later part of World Host Group) is a long-standing, 100% green provider founded in 2002 with a clear pitch: pro-grade hosting at accessible prices. Their catalog is broad and intentionally modular—shared, WordPress, Java/Tomcat, reseller, Linux/Windows VPS, and managed servers—so customers can start small and scale without switching vendors. Performance claims lean on NVMe SSD storage, AMD EPYC CPUs, LiteSpeed (on applicable stacks), and 1 Gbit/s network ports with unlimited bandwidth. Extras that many hosts upcharge for are bundled: free domain (year 1 on annual terms), unlimited free SSLs, free migrations, and regular offsite backups (daily available as a paid premium).

Shared & cPanel / Windows web hosting

Shared plans come in Linux (cPanel/CloudLinux) and Windows (Plesk) variants. Linux cPanel hosting includes up to 4 GB RAM per account, Softaculous one-click installs, JetBackup self-restore, and NVMe storage across nine global locations. Windows hosting targets .NET/IIS users and includes Let’s Encrypt SSL, 300+ 1-click apps, and recent Windows Server.

WordPress hosting

WordPress tiers add one-click installs, LiteSpeed-optimized delivery, automatic offsite backups, and free multi-site migrations. Security is tightened via CloudLinux isolation and Imunify Web App Firewall. Resources scale to absorb traffic spikes without downtime.

Java/Tomcat hosting

A standout specialty: Java/Tomcat plans with a web-based Tomcat manager, unlimited JSP and non-JSP sites, unlimited SSD space (within fair-use/resource limits), unlimited monthly traffic, and unlimited SSLs—useful for teams shipping Java web apps.

Reseller hosting

Reseller ("Affogato") plans emphasize speed and white-labeling: WHM/cPanel, custom nameservers, Anycast DNS to lower latency and improve DNS resilience, Imunify360 protection, and Softaculous. Branding and billing integrate cleanly with WHMCS.

VPS & servers (managed and unmanaged)

VPS is offered on both Linux and Windows with NVMe or SSD storage, root/admin access, free dedicated IP, and quick activation. Managed VPS/dedicated variants add end-to-end setup, industry-stated 99.95% uptime, white-label options, global deployment choices, and hands-on scaling. Unmanaged "Frappe/Lungo" lines deliver cost-effective control (root access, OS choice, SSH/white-label flexibility) on the same high-performance backbone.

😠 They mangled my domain name as their first step and wanted me to go through a various steps to fix it. I cancelled immediately and asked for a refund. They then keep arguing it is my fault when the first email from them had the correct information before their system (probably with code completion) mangled the letters, dropping one to: espress.com

😠 You better look other option, stay away from Mochahost
Mochahost was a very good option some years ago. Nowadays, they are not the same. Their service is bad, and they do not do what they promise. For instance, I had a problem with my site, they told me that within one hour my problem would be solved...well, after 18 hours and my site was still down...That is not Good service. Sorry Mochahost, you were a good company some years before, in my opinion, good enough that I recommended your company to other friends...But Nowadays, what happened with you Mochahost? you have became a terrible hosting company. To be honest, there are better options out there, Mochahost did not keep their service level...and as result of this...I will leave Mochahost as soon as I can. My advise to anyone looking for hosting services: Look elsewhere, do not hire Mochahost as your hosting company...otherwise: you will regret you bought Mochahost services.
