*📜 Plan description

ZeroSSL is the second free certificate option on the page and is described almost identically to Let's Encrypt. It offers domain validation, 256-bit encryption, broad server-platform compatibility, 90-day validity, and automated renewal without customer intervention. The page also presents it as capable of covering a normal domain and www, several domains, or wildcard use, again with up to 100 hostnames per certificate. It is intended as a no-cost alternative for customers who do not need a paid commercial certificate.

Timme presents its SSL range as domain-validated certificates compatible with common server platforms including nginx, Apache, and Microsoft IIS, with 256-bit encryption and near-universal browser acceptance above 99%. The product text highlights SHA-2 signatures, IDN support, optional SAN capability, and issuance that usually completes within minutes because domain validation is automated by email confirmation. Paid Timme-branded certificates have a one-year validity and do not auto-renew after expiry, so they only need to be reordered or extended if they are still required. The provider also sends reminder emails ahead of expiry. The free Let's Encrypt and ZeroSSL options differ by using 90-day validity with automated renewal, and the page says they can secure up to 100 hostnames per certificate across the same or different domains. Timme explicitly notes that it only acts as an intermediary for the free providers and does not give support, warranty, or liability for their external service operation.

📄 Editorial Review

Timme Hosting is a Germany-based specialist host from Lüneburg, founded in 2012 by Falko Timme. The company is built around a very specific idea: managed nginx hosting for performance-sensitive websites and online stores, rather than a generic mass-market hosting catalog. That focus runs consistently through the whole business, from the product naming to the technical stack and support model. The storefront is primarily in German, while the legal contact information allows communication in German and English. The site also makes it clear that the offers are aimed mainly at businesses, organizations, and public-law entities, with pricing shown in EUR and generally listed net of VAT.

The product range is broader than it first appears. On the shared side, they sell Webhosting and Shop-Hosting packages, both centered on nginx and SSD storage. Above that sit Managed vServer plans with dedicated resources, Managed Server plans for heavier workloads, and a flexible ScaleServer line that can be configured either as a managed ISPConfig-based service or as a more self-managed root server. They also offer Object Storage 2.0 for static files, domain registration, SSL certificates, container hosting, and a built-in App-Installer for common CMS and shop systems.

One of the stronger points is how application-focused the lineup is. Timme Hosting has dedicated pages and optimized environments for WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, TYPO3, Contao, Magento, OXID, PrestaShop, Shopware, WooCommerce, and JTL-Shop. Those services are not just generic templates with different names. They are built around prepared nginx configurations, performance tuning for the specific application, free migration or first installation on new managed orders, and a clear upgrade path from shared hosting to vServers, dedicated servers, or ScaleServer as a project grows. That makes the platform especially suitable for agencies, store operators, and businesses that want managed Linux hosting without having to assemble everything themselves.

A few technical details help explain the positioning. Shared hosting is based on nginx 1.28, supports PHP 7.0 through 8.5, includes prebuilt nginx configurations for common CMS and shop software, and uses the company’s close relationship with ISPConfig as part of the management layer. Managed vServers and managed servers are fully administered offerings with no root login on the managed side, but they still provide normal administrative access for day-to-day work through ISPConfig, SSH for standard users, FTP management, cron jobs, databases, domains, and mail handling.
