📄 Editorial Review

Owned-Networks is a web hosting and infrastructure provider operating since 2005. The business operates as Owned-Networks LLC and combines conventional cPanel hosting with reseller accounts, KVM cloud VPS, OpenVZ Linux VPS, dedicated servers and domain registration. Its server locations cover several major US markets as well as London and Amsterdam, giving customers useful geographic choice for websites, applications and server workloads.

The website is available in English, Spanish and French, while technical support is also available in these three languages. Prices are primarily displayed in USD, and the client billing area supports currency selection.

Shared Hosting uses cPanel together with LiteSpeed, CloudLinux, SSD storage, Softaculous, free SSL certificates, WordPress installation, JetBackup, email hosting, unlimited databases and DDoS protection. The Basic package includes 10 GB SSD storage and unlimited traffic. Professional increases storage to 25 GB and permits unlimited domains, Business provides 50 GB SSD, and Enterprise reaches 60 GB while adding a dedicated IP address. These hosting packages are covered by a 99.9% uptime guarantee.

Shared accounts include unlimited FTP accounts, MySQL databases and email accounts, together with Webmail, SMTP, IMAP, cron jobs and a website builder. Free migration from another cPanel provider is also available, making the service practical for customers moving an existing website without rebuilding the account manually.

Reseller Hosting is available in the United States and Europe and combines WHM with individual cPanel accounts. The environment includes private nameservers, LiteSpeed, CloudLinux, free SSL, JetBackup, Softaculous and DDoS protection. Starter provides 30 cPanel accounts with 50 GB SSD storage, Professional supports 50 accounts and 80 GB, Business provides 100 accounts and 120 GB, while Enterprise increases the allocation to 150 accounts and 160 GB together with a dedicated IP address. Business and Enterprise accounts also include SSH access.

The reseller platform is well suited to agencies, developers and designers that need separate customer hosting accounts. Private nameservers and white-label operation also allow resellers to provide hosting under their own identity rather than exposing the upstream provider.

The KVM Cloud VPS range is one of the strongest parts of the portfolio. Virtual servers are available in New York City, Miami, Dallas, Seattle, Los Angeles, London and Amsterdam. Each configuration includes SSD storage, one dedicated IPv4 address, IPv6, a 1 Gbps network port, full root access and DDoS protection.

The entry KVM configuration provides 512 MB RAM, one vCPU, 20 GB SSD storage and 1 TB transfer. Larger configurations scale through 1 GB, 2 GB, 4 GB, 8 GB and 16 GB RAM, with the 16 GB package reaching eight vCPU, 120 GB SSD storage and 6 TB transfer. Server-management functions include reboot, operating-system reinstall, console access and hostname changes.

Linux customers can use distributions including AlmaLinux, Ubuntu, Debian and Rocky Linux, with Ubuntu versions through 24.04 available. Full SSH root access makes the service suitable for web applications, databases, development environments, Docker workloads, VPN services and other applications requiring operating-system control.

Windows VPS is also available. Windows Server 2016 is included without an additional licensing charge on eligible VPS configurations starting from 1 GB RAM, while newer Windows Server editions can require an additional monthly license. Windows customers receive full Administrator access through RDP. The smallest 512 MB package remains Linux-only.

An additional OpenVZ 7 VPS range provides a low-cost Linux alternative. These servers are available in Lenoir, Dallas, Miami and New York City. The smallest configuration includes 512 MB RAM, one vCPU, 30 GB RAID 10 storage, 500 GB transfer, one IPv4 address and multiple IPv6 addresses. Larger configurations scale to 8 GB RAM, four vCPU, 100 GB storage and 5 TB monthly transfer. TUN/TAP is supported for applications that require virtual network interfaces.

KVM is the more flexible virtualization option because it provides stronger isolation and an independent kernel while supporting both Linux and Windows. OpenVZ remains useful for lighter Linux workloads where the lower entry price is more important than full hardware virtualization.

Dedicated Servers are available in Dallas, Miami and New York City. These unmanaged bare-metal systems include root access, DDoS protection, IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity and 1 Gbps network interfaces. Current configurations use Intel Xeon E3-12xx and dual Xeon E5-26xx processors, with memory ranging from 8 GB to 48 GB and HDD or SSD storage depending on the server.

Monthly traffic allowances range from 10 TB to 30 TB. Some dedicated configurations include five IPv4 addresses, while IPv6 allocations start at /64 and can extend to /48. Customers can request a preferred Linux operating system and partition layout when ordering, and a cPanel license can be added separately.

The dedicated-server configuration still uses CentOS 7 as the default installation when no alternative is requested. Since CentOS 7 reached end of life in 2024, customers should select a maintained Linux distribution during provisioning.

Domain Registration is integrated into the client area, covering new registrations, renewals and transfers across numerous extensions. A .COM domain costs approximately $14.99 for registration or transfer and $17.99 for renewal. Renewal pricing varies between extensions and should be considered when comparing long-term domain costs.

DDoS protection is included throughout the KVM platform rather than charged as a separate traffic-based mitigation service. Protection covers common volumetric attacks including UDP, ICMP, SYN and amplification traffic. Dedicated servers and shared-hosting products also include DDoS protection.
