*📜 Plan description

VPS Linux 2 is a mid range unmanaged Linux virtual private server aimed at growing websites and applications that need more CPU power and memory than an entry level VPS. The plan allocates 2 CPU cores, 4 GB RAM and 80 GB of NVMe SSD storage, which comfortably supports several medium traffic sites, a larger content management system, a small ecommerce store or application back ends that require additional concurrency. NVMe SSD storage provides very fast disk access so database driven workloads feel responsive and file based operations complete quickly. Unmetered bandwidth allows you to accommodate marketing campaigns, seasonal peaks or organic traffic growth without worrying about data transfer limits or penalties. Full root access is provided so you can customise the Linux distribution, install specific web servers, databases and scripting languages, and fine tune kernel and service configurations. You can choose the preferred Australian data centre location to keep response times low for your primary audience and connect services to other infrastructure you might host with Webcentral. An optional cPanel licence makes it easy to provide individual accounts, email and databases through a familiar control panel while still allowing deep command line administration. Weekly backup services protect your content and databases against accidental deletion or software issues, and optional CloudLinux with Imunify 360 strengthens account isolation, malware scanning and intrusion prevention. The discounted monthly price of 14.95 AUD for the first term provides strong value for the included resources, with subsequent renewals at 24.92 AUD per month reflecting the standard rate for this configuration.

Across the Linux VPS range these unmanaged servers are positioned for customers who are comfortable managing their own operating system and application stack while the provider handles the underlying infrastructure, network and hardware. All VPS plans are built on enterprise grade platforms using NVMe storage, isolated resources and a 99.9 percent uptime commitment so production workloads, ecommerce sites and custom applications can run reliably without frequent interruptions. Security features include DDoS monitoring plus anti virus, anti spyware and anti malware protection at the network edge, complemented by free SSL options that can be enabled through the hosting panel. You retain root access at all times with the flexibility to host multiple websites, deploy custom software and define your own firewall rules to match application needs. Support is available via live chat, phone, email and helpdesk with coverage promoted as being available around the clock, and the company operates Australian data centres with additional points of presence in other global locations to keep latency low for regional users. Billing is performed in Australian dollars including GST and you can pay using credit card, PayPal or bank transfer, with promotional discounts applying to the first billing term when special offers are active.

📄 Editorial Review

Webcentral is an Australian web solutions provider with roots going back to 1997, when it began operating as Netregistry and quickly became a popular choice for local businesses looking for affordable domains and hosting. Today it operates under the Webcentral brand as part of the Webcentral Group, positioning itself as Australia’s largest and most experienced domain name registrar with accreditation for both Australian and international extensions. The focus is clearly on Australian small and medium-sized businesses, start-ups and side projects that want local infrastructure, local support and a single provider for domains, hosting, email and associated digital services.

From a product perspective, Webcentral covers most of the classic hosting categories. On the domain side, it offers registration and management for a wide range of TLDs, including .au, .com.au and other Australian extensions, as well as global names like .com, .net and .org. Domain transfer services and SSL certificates are integrated, so customers can keep domain, DNS and certificate management under one account.

The core hosting portfolio centres on shared hosting, WordPress hosting, cPanel hosting, reseller hosting, VPS and virtual dedicated servers. Standard shared hosting is presented as simple, reliable "Web Hosting" plans aimed at small sites and business websites, with unlimited bandwidth, databases, daily backups and built-in security features such as DDoS protection and SSL. cPanel hosting targets users who want more control, pairing the familiar cPanel interface with LiteSpeed web server optimisation, AMD EPYC processors and NVMe SSD storage in an Australian data centre. WordPress hosting and managed WordPress hosting push this further for content-driven sites, adding WordPress-specific tooling such as staging, cloning, automatic updates and performance optimisation, plus security hardening and daily backups.

For more demanding workloads, Webcentral offers Linux and Windows VPS hosting (both unmanaged and managed) as well as fully managed Virtual Dedicated Servers. VPS plans provide full root access, the option to choose server location and operating system, and support for multiple control panels including cPanel, Plesk, Webmin, CyberPanel and aaPanel. Virtual Dedicated Servers are positioned as a step up for businesses needing dedicated resources and managed infrastructure, with Webcentral handling operating system maintenance, patches, monitoring and security. These services are complemented by email and collaboration products (Professional Email, Business Email and Microsoft 365), which allow customers to integrate domain-branded email and productivity tools into the same ecosystem.

Beyond core hosting, Webcentral also sells a set of website and digital services that make it more of a full-service provider than a pure infrastructure host. An AI Website Builder is available for users who want a fast, no-code way to launch a site, and there is a "Website Design by Experts" offering for custom WordPress builds managed by an in-house team. Security services extend beyond standard hosting protections into specialised website security bundles, and the "Marketing Radar" product provides competitor and brand-monitoring tools that sit on top of hosting and domains to support ongoing digital marketing.

Webcentral uses local Australian infrastructure and support teams in Melbourne and Brisbane for hosting and domains, with 24/7 availability via live chat and an extensive knowledge base.

Overall, Webcentral comes across as a mature, broad-spectrum provider for Australian businesses that want everything from domain registration and basic shared hosting through to managed VPS and virtual dedicated servers, with additional layers for security, email, Microsoft 365 and marketing tools. The tone is informal and approachable, but the underlying portfolio and infrastructure are notably extensive for a regionally focused host.
