Dominios.pt is a long-established Portuguese provider active since 2001, serving more than 80,000 customers and positioning itself as the largest national player for domain registration, web hosting, dedicated servers, Microsoft 365 and business email. Their focus is strongly local: hosting in Portugal, support in Portuguese, local payment methods, and a portfolio tailored to freelancers, small businesses and larger organizations that want a dependable national partner.

Their catalogue is wide and integrated. The Domains & SSL division covers a large variety of extensions (.pt, .eu, .com and many others) alongside DNS management, WHOIS lookup, privacy options, and trademark-oriented tools such as brand monitoring, domain recovery and blocking services. Domains can include a small "Web Domain" mini-hosting pack with DNS, basic email, web hosting and access to their Site OnePage builder for instant online presence.

Shared hosting is available in two major lines. The Linux "Alojamento Web Business" plans use NVMe SSD storage and include a free domain for the first year (selected TLDs), cPanel, Let’s Encrypt SSL, Imunify360 protection, Jetbackup, antispam, antivirus and installers for WordPress, Joomla and more. Resources scale from Startup to Performance tiers, allowing both simple one-site use and multiple larger projects under one account. The Windows Business plans follow the same layered structure but with Plesk, ASP.NET support, MSSQL databases and NVMe storage designed for Microsoft-centric development.

WordPress hosting is positioned as a separate, premium product line. It uses NVMe storage, LiteSpeed for performance and a WordPress AI Assistant to help generate page layouts and content. All plans include free SSL, Jetbackup, cPanel, unlimited traffic and Imunify360, with CPU, RAM and storage increasing across the tiers.

Agencies and developers are supported through Reseller hosting, built on NVMe SSD, cPanel, Jetbackup and unlimited traffic. These plans are white-label, enabling designers and developers to sell hosting to clients while Dominios.pt manages the backend infrastructure.

For more demanding needs, the company offers Cloud Servers (VPS) and Dedicated Servers. Cloud Servers run on a redundant cloud platform, include guaranteed RAM and vCPUs, a dedicated IPv4, DDoS protection, unlimited traffic on 1 Gbps connectivity, and a 99.5% service level. They are available with Linux or Windows, with optional cPanel/Plesk and paid management services. Dedicated Servers provide full hardware isolation, optional RAID, IPMI/remote reboot (depending on hardware), central backup services and optional full management, where their team handles OS updates, monitoring, security and application support.

Beyond hosting, Dominios.pt delivers a broad ecosystem of digital services: Professional Email, Microsoft 365, website builder tools, a full Online Store platform (supporting Multibanco, MB WAY, credit cards), SEO and marketing services, GDPR solutions, Google Consent Mode v2 tools, and an accessibility compliance platform (AccessiWay). This makes them more than a hosting company—they act as a complete digital partner for local businesses.

Note: Dominios.pt dropped English website localization in 2025 and their collocation offer (used to be in 2019)!

💰 Price & Cost

Prices are in Euros and subject to Portuguese VAT. Linux shared hosting often features promotional pricing under 1 €/month on annual terms, with renewal costs clearly displayed and higher than the promo rate. Higher plans add NVMe storage, RAM, CPU and more domains. All include free SSL and a free first-year domain on selected extensions.

Windows hosting is priced higher due to ASP.NET and MSSQL requirements. Plans span multi-year billing options and range from modest monthly fees on entry levels to significantly higher pricing for enterprise-style tiers.

WordPress hosting also uses strong introductory discounts—up to 85% off the first year—followed by clearly listed renewals. The structure makes long-term cost planning straightforward.

Reseller hosting begins at a few dozen euros per month for 25 GB NVMe and 10 accounts and scales with storage and number of accounts. Prices generally apply to longer-term (e.g., triennial) billing cycles.

Cloud Servers fall into the mid-range VPS category, with promotional pricing around 16–61 €/month for 2–16 GB RAM plans. Normal prices are shown alongside, usually about double. Add-ons include external backup (e.g., from 13 €/month) and fully managed server administration (49 €/month).

Dedicated Servers include optional add-ons such as management, backup, firewall configuration and out-of-hours technical interventions, with published hourly rates for advanced tasks.

Domain pricing follows the standard "promo first year / renewal price" model for many TLDs. VAT is added at checkout.
There is no broad commercial money-back guarantee advertised. Refunds and cancellations appear governed by the specific service terms and Portuguese consumer law and is not published visible on the website

Payment methods include credit card and Multibanco for renewals, with their Online Store platform also supporting MB WAY, bank transfer and PayPal—indicating strong alignment with common Portuguese payment habits.

🏢 Data Center

Dominios.pt operates its own datacenter in Faro, Portugal, which is central to their value proposition. The facility follows a Tier-3-style design, including dual feeds, redundant 10 Gbit fiber, anti-seismic construction, modular N+1 UPS and backup UPS, InRow cooling, hot/cold aisle containment, biometric access, fire doors and an automatic diesel generator with days of autonomy.

Part of the facility’s power needs are supplemented by rooftop solar panels, capable of covering up to 50% of consumption in periods of high exposure. Cooling capacity reaches up to 35 kW per rack, supported by 2N+1 redundant systems and constant load and temperature monitoring.

Network reliability is a key focus: redundant connectivity, continuous monitoring and strong security controls are highlighted. Cloud Servers explicitly include a 99.5% SLA uptime guarantee, DDoS protection, 1 Gbps connectivity and unlimited traffic. Shared hosting and reseller hosting are located within Portugal, providing low-latency access for national customers.

✍️ Customer Support

Customer support is described as a core advantage. Phone support is available on business days from 09:00 to 18:00 via a national number. Additionally, the client area provides ticket-based support and an optional Priority Support add-on. A knowledge base and blog complement the support channels.

Support is delivered by an in-house technical team with specialized knowledge, which is consistently highlighted across multiple product pages. Dedicated server clients benefit from 24×7 monitoring, automatic alerts and email support, with managed services extending to OS maintenance, security and application support.

🔨 Control Panel

Dominios.pt uses standard, widely supported control panels:

• cPanel for Linux shared hosting, reseller hosting and WordPress hosting (with added WordPress tools such as LiteSpeed and the AI Assistant).
• Plesk for Windows hosting.
• cPanel or Plesk as optional panels for Cloud Servers and Dedicated Servers.

These options minimize lock-in and simplify migrations from other providers.

🎯 Conclusion

Dominios.pt stands out as a mature, locally rooted hosting provider with its own datacenter, a strong focus on national customers and a product range that spans domains, shared hosting, WordPress hosting, cloud/VPS, dedicated servers and broader digital services like ecommerce, SEO and compliance tools.

Strengths include their long presence in the Portuguese market, modern datacenter infrastructure, competitive NVMe-based hosting, robust security (Imunify360, backups, SSL), SLA-backed cloud services, and a wide digital ecosystem. The emphasis on local hosting, local support and local payment methods makes them particularly suitable for Portuguese businesses.

Potential drawbacks include the focus on the Portuguese market and the absence of a standard money-back guarantee commonly advertised by international budget hosts. Customers should review the service terms carefully before committing.

For businesses operating in Portugal or seeking a provider with national infrastructure and comprehensive digital services, Dominios.pt is a dependable and full-featured option.
