*📜 Plan description

Starter is the entry Linux cPanel VPS plan on the TMD Cloud, designed for people who want a cost effective managed virtual server with guaranteed resources instead of sharing them on a crowded shared hosting account. The configuration includes 60 GB SSD space, 2 TB of monthly bandwidth, 2 CPU cores and 2 GB DDR4 RAM, which is enough to host a handful of production websites, landing pages or small applications while still keeping performance consistent. cPanel and WHM are included out of the box, along with a free cPanel Solo license, so you get a familiar graphical interface to create accounts, manage email, DNS zones, databases and files, and WHM to manage the VPS itself. The plan also comes with a free domain registration, free domain transfer if you are moving an existing name, and free website transfer performed by the support team, so migration from another host is handled for you. Unlimited email accounts, unlimited sub and parked domains and unlimited MySQL databases mean there is no artificial limit on how many mailboxes or small sites you attach to the server, and free SSL certificates via Let's Encrypt are integrated so every hosted domain can be secured quickly. Under the VPS product description, TMDHosting highlights manual daily backups, a dedicated IP address for your VPS, premium caching and a free CloudFlare CDN integration, making the platform suitable for growing blogs, small ecommerce stores and agency sites that need predictable performance.

In terms of pricing, Starter is advertised at 49.99 USD per month when paid triennially, with higher effective rates on shorter billing cycles such as 53.12 USD per month when paid biennially, 56.24 USD per month when paid annually and 62.49 USD per month on a simple monthly contract, all expressed as monthly equivalents. Every VPS plan is fully managed, so TMDHosting's staff handle operating system updates, security patches, server tuning and troubleshooting, leaving you to focus on sites and applications. The TMD Cloud platform emphasizes guaranteed CPU, RAM, storage and network resources, fully N+1 redundant infrastructure for compute, storage and networking, and design for speed with constant optimization by site reliability engineers. All Linux VPS plans include a 30 day money back guarantee and a 99.9 percent uptime guarantee, with multiple data centers available in Chicago (US), London (GB), Amsterdam (NL), Singapore (SG), Sydney (AU) and Tokyo (JP) so you can host content close to your visitors. Security features like hardware and power redundancy, in house server monitoring, reinforced DDoS protection, proactive updates and patches, a web application firewall and free SSL are part of the standard stack. Support is available 24/7/365 via ticketing, live chat, phone and other channels with an advertised 15 minute response time and a team of specialists experienced in open source apps, while tools such as Softaculous autoinstaller, SSH and SFTP access, the latest and legacy PHP versions, MySQL 8, MariaDB and HTTP/2 enabled servers round out a managed VPS environment intended to grow with your project.

📄 Editorial Review

TMDHosting is a long-running hosting provider that has been operating since 2007, founder by Peter Darazhanski and is headquartered in Orlando, Florida. Over the years they have evolved from classic shared hosting into a broader cloud and managed hosting platform built around their own "TMD Cloud" infrastructure. Their positioning is very clear: fully managed hosting with real human support, a global data center footprint and an emphasis on speed, security and convenience for users who do not want to manage servers themselves.

The main catalogue covers most standard hosting use cases: Linux shared hosting, managed WordPress and WooCommerce hosting, Linux and Windows VPS, Windows shared hosting, dedicated servers, reseller-style solutions (via multi-site shared plans and VPS/dedicated), and a large portfolio of "solution" packages for specific applications. These app-focused plans include hosting tailored for popular CMS platforms (WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, Elementor, Divi), ecommerce apps (WooCommerce, PrestaShop, Magento, OpenCart), developer frameworks (Laravel, Symfony, Django, Node.js, Vue.js, React.js, Angular), e-learning systems, ERP platforms, Docker, and various databases. In practice, these are usually specialized environments on top of their standard Linux shared or VPS infrastructure, but they are presented as targeted solutions for customers who want one-click installs and tuned defaults.

Linux shared hosting is one of the pillars of the offering. These plans are cPanel-based and come in three tiers (Starter, Business and Enterprise). Even the entry plan includes SSD storage, LiteSpeed web server, free SSL certificates, CloudLinux-based isolation, Cloudflare CDN integration, a free domain, multiple server locations, and a 99.9% uptime guarantee. Higher tiers increase resources (SSD space, performance multiplier, backups) and unlock unlimited websites and databases. TMDHosting clearly aims these plans at both beginners and small businesses who want a straightforward, fully managed environment with one-click installations and free migration.

For users who prefer a platform tuned specifically for WordPress, there is a separate managed WordPress hosting line, promoted as using cPanel’s WordPress Toolkit with extra security and performance optimizations. WooCommerce hosting reuses that foundation but is marketed towards online stores, with the same managed approach and focus on stability, updates and assistance from support engineers familiar with WordPress-based ecommerce.

On the server side, TMDHosting offers fully managed Linux VPS and Windows VPS hosting, as well as managed dedicated servers. The Linux VPS plans are positioned as a step up from shared hosting, providing more CPU/RAM, greater customization and root-level flexibility while retaining management and support from TMD’s team. Windows VPS and Windows shared hosting target ASP.NET and Plesk users, so they fill the .NET-oriented niche that many purely Linux-focused hosts ignore. Dedicated servers are marketed to customers with high-traffic websites or custom applications that need dedicated resources and tailored management. There are also custom deployment options for larger or more specific projects where TMDHosting’s engineers design and manage a bespoke infrastructure on top of their cloud platform.

The entire platform is tied together by their TMD Cloud infrastructure and TMD Portal. The TMD Cloud is described as a highly available, N+1 redundant architecture based on modern hardware (Supermicro servers with Intel processors) and enterprise networking from vendors such as Cisco, Juniper, Dell and Arista, orchestrated with technologies like OpenStack and Ceph. The TMD Portal acts as a higher-level management interface around traditional control panels, letting customers deploy solutions, manage domains and SSL certificates, and interact with the support team from one place. Overall, the company presents itself as a fully managed hosting partner rather than just a raw infrastructure seller, and the product line reflects this managed, support-driven philosophy.

😁 TMD---Wow--what a great company! What great support! After having been with Lunarpages for over 10 years they sold out to a big conglomerate. My dedicated server support was gone. Phone calls were answered by 'operators' who then wrote up tickets resulting in delays of responses (not necessarily 'answers') for a couple of days. So much for 'dedicated support.' Through a colleague I found TMD (VPS-level). I've been totally overwhelmed with their level of service both by phone and by 'ticket' Calls are connected within minutes to an English speaking knowledgeable techie who has either guided me through the migration process or accomplished the task for me while I am on the phone. Ticket requests for assistance usually are answered in about 15-20 minutes. It's 2020...I would never have expected this great level of technical assistance at this time---hand holding even! The tech support at TMD is even way beyond my old Lunarpages support.
Thanks very much TMD techies!
I hope to be here for 10 years with you hosting my site.
