terra.net.lbTerraNet S.A.L. is a long-established Lebanese Internet service provider headquartered in Beirut. Founded in
1999, the company has developed into a nationwide communications provider serving residential users, businesses, public organizations, and customers requiring locally managed Internet infrastructure.
TerraNet is more than a conventional web hosting company. Its service portfolio combines
residential and business Internet access, dedicated connectivity, fiber connections, ADSL, HDSL, wireless Internet, domain registration, email services, shared hosting, colocation, network consulting, VPN implementation, private WAN design, LAN installation, web applications, email security, and
parental-control services. This broad scope is useful for Lebanese organizations that prefer to obtain Internet connectivity, hosting, email, and technical support from the same local provider.
The company separates its services into several product groups.
TerraPro covers dedicated Internet access, business fiber, HDSL, and other connectivity solutions for companies.
TerraCasa includes residential ADSL, fiber, and wireless Internet.
TerraWeb handles domains, email, shared hosting, colocation, and web development.
TerraPlus adds corporate email filtering, network consulting, VPN deployment, private WAN infrastructure, LAN installation, intranet development, and customized web applications.
The shared hosting range consists of Basic, Standard, Advanced, Premium, and Professional packages. Storage starts at
200 MB and reaches
5 GB, while included monthly data transfer ranges from
1 GB to 7 GB. The entry package does not include an SQL database, while the larger plans support as many as two databases.
Hosting functionality includes FTP access, domain administration, email management, traffic statistics, server log access, custom error pages, and optional backup restoration. Additional mailboxes can also be purchased when the allocation included with a package is insufficient.
The hosting platform is mainly suitable for traditional websites and legacy business applications. Its technical specifications include
ASP, ASP.NET, Perl, Java, PHP, MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server, and optional Python support. Some referenced versions, including PHP 4, PHP 5, Microsoft SQL Server 2000/2005, MySQL 5.1, and FrontPage Extensions 2002, are obsolete. A customer planning to run WordPress, an online store, or a modern custom application should obtain written confirmation of the current operating system, PHP versions, database versions, SSL support, backup frequency, security tools, and migration options.
TerraNet also manages
domain registration for international extensions and Lebanese domain names such as
.com.lb, .net.lb, .org.lb, .edu.lb, and
.gov.lb. Lebanese domains require supporting documentation and must comply with the eligibility conditions established by the LB Domain Registry.
The company’s
email services include TerraNet mailboxes and filtering for companies that use their own domain names. Messages containing viruses are blocked, while suspected spam is placed in quarantine. Users can access the quarantine through a web interface and decide whether messages should be released or deleted. Corporate Email Defense protects employee mailboxes without requiring the business to replace its existing domain.
The
colocation service accommodates rack-mount servers up to 4U. Tower servers may also be accepted for an additional monthly fee. The service includes direct Internet connectivity, protected electrical power, generator backup, climate control, and controlled access to equipment.
Optional firewall protection is available for colocated systems. Basic remote-hands assistance can cover tasks such as restarting equipment, inserting media, and performing a power cycle. Customers requiring physical access or more extensive intervention may be charged separately.
Business Internet connectivity is one of TerraNet’s strongest areas. Dedicated Internet packages begin at 2 Mbps and can be customized with higher speeds or unlimited traffic. HDSL includes a subnet containing eight public IP addresses, while business fiber connections can reach speeds of up to 300 Mbps.
For larger companies, TerraNet can design and implement private WANs, secure VPN links between Lebanese or international offices, internal corporate networks, intranet systems, and customized web-based applications. These services make it possible to combine connectivity, network management, hosting, and application development under one contract.
TerraNet became the first Lebanese Internet service provider to obtain ISO quality certification and completed its
ISO 9001:2015 upgrade in May 2018. Its quality-management procedures, continuously monitored network, redundant infrastructure, and 24/7 support are important advantages for businesses operating in Lebanon.
The company website retains an older visual design, and parts of the web hosting catalog have not been modernized. The customer account and Internet application systems remain active, however, with residential ADSL and fiber packages priced in Lebanese pounds. The hosting service should therefore be ordered only after receiving an updated commercial and technical proposal.
English is the main language used throughout the company website. The customer account, online application, and terms areas also support
Arabic, making the service more accessible to local users. Depending on the product, prices may be shown in
US dollars or Lebanese pounds.

mobi.net.lbMobi is a Lebanese Internet, telecommunications and online-services provider headquartered in Sin El Fil. The company serves residential users as well as corporate customers and operates within
Cedarcom Group (cedarcom.net), whose telecommunications history goes back to
1997. Internet and data services followed in
1999, which is also the foundation year associated with Mobi. Cedarcom-Mobi operates as a privately held telecommunications business with a workforce in the 51–200 employee range.
Imad Tarabay has been closely associated with the organization for many years and became Chairman and CEO of the Cedarcom-Mobi Group in 2000. The wider business developed through several telecommunications operations, including Cedarcom, Mobi, Lynx and Broadband Plus.
The operating company closely associated with Mobi services is
Broadband Plus S.A.L., Lebanese commercial registration
1006215. Broadband Plus was established in 2006 and forms part of Cedarcom Holding/Cedarcom Group. Its registered capital is LBP 1,001,000,000 fully paid.
Mobi is much broader than a conventional web hosting company. Its portfolio combines
Corporate Internet, fiber connectivity, DSL/HDSL, High Bandwidth Connections, Multi-Branching, managed Wi-Fi, CDN, domain registration and Web Hosting. Residential services also include fiber optic access and ADSL/VDSL.
This combination is especially useful for Lebanese businesses that prefer obtaining connectivity, networking and basic Internet services from a single local provider. Corporate Internet and HBC suit businesses requiring dedicated or high-capacity connectivity, while Multi-Branching is intended for organizations connecting multiple offices or operational locations. Managed Wi-Fi and building connectivity extend the portfolio further into business infrastructure.
Web Hosting and
Domain Registration remain part of the corporate product range. Hosting, however, is a secondary service compared with Mobi's telecommunications activities. The hosting offer does not currently provide the same detailed package comparison normally associated with specialist hosting companies, while VPS, cloud-server and dedicated-server product ranges are not part of the main portfolio.
The website operates primarily in English and uses
US dollars for corporate service pricing. No multi-language/localized version exist. Account recharge, coverage checks, applications and service management are integrated into the wider telecommunications operation.

sodetel.net.lbSODETEL is one of Lebanon’s longest-established telecommunications companies, operating since
1968. Its ownership is divided equally between the Lebanese Government and Orange (orange.com) Middle East & Africa, giving the company a combination of local institutional backing and international telecommunications experience.
The company played an important role in the development of Lebanon’s communications infrastructure. Its history includes participation in an early submarine cable connection between Beirut and Marseille, the introduction of switched data services during the 1990s, and the launch of Internet and broadband access in
1996 through cooperation with France Telecom, now Orange.
SODETEL currently operates primarily as an Internet service provider rather than as a conventional international web hosting company. Residential customers can choose from
Fiber Optics,
VDSL,
ADSL,
Fixed Wireless Access,
4G Plus, gaming-oriented Internet packages, and Mesh Wi-Fi equipment. Service availability depends on the customer’s location and the infrastructure available in that area.
The business portfolio is considerably broader. Companies can obtain
fiber and DSL connections, microwave local loops, SME Internet packages, dedicated corporate connectivity, managed network services, SD-WAN, proactive monitoring, and customized telecommunications solutions. Cybersecurity services include external attack-surface management, digital-risk protection, threat intelligence, security analytics, and threat-detection solutions.
SODETEL also has a long history in web hosting. Its former hosting portfolio included
Linux Shared Hosting, domain registration, email services, and
Server Colocation. Shared hosting plans provided email accounts, spam and antivirus filtering, databases, and monthly traffic allocations.
The shared-hosting catalog is now part of the company’s legacy portfolio. The active service structure concentrates on residential Internet, enterprise connectivity, managed network services, and cybersecurity. There is no current public VPS, dedicated-server, reseller-hosting, or cloud-server catalog with automated deployment and online ordering.
Domain services previously covered international extensions and Lebanese
.lb domains. Lebanese domain registration required local documentation, including commercial-registration records and an appropriate trademark certificate. International domain registrations were commonly offered with two-year renewal periods.
The company remains most relevant to Lebanese households and businesses that want Internet access, local installation, networking, and technical support from an established domestic provider. It is less suitable for international customers looking for instant VPS deployment, modern shared-hosting comparisons, or self-service cloud infrastructure.
The website is available in English and uses a modern layout with online applications, service-availability requests, order tracking, customer-account access, webmail, reseller locations, and mobile application links.

HostlebHostLeb is a Lebanese web hosting company based in
Downtown Beirut, serving customers with traditional Linux/UNIX shared hosting, reseller hosting and domain services. The business has operated since
2004 and is associated with founder and owner
Jimmy El Costa. HostLeb has remained privately operated and financially independent, with its own server infrastructure forming the basis of the hosting service.
The current portfolio covers
Shared Hosting, Reseller Hosting and Domain Registration / Transfer. The website is available in English, and hosting prices are listed in
USD. The product range is straightforward and oriented mainly toward individuals, small businesses, designers and agencies that need conventional website and email hosting rather than cloud infrastructure.
Shared hosting is divided into six packages:
COPPER, BRONZE, SILVER, GOLD, PLATINUM and DIAMOND. Disk allocations start at 500 MB and increase to 10 GB, while monthly data transfer ranges from 50 GB to 1,000 GB. All packages include a free domain and have no setup fee.
Email resources are generous compared with the relatively small disk quotas. Depending on the package, customers receive from 500 up to 10,000 POP3/IMAP email accounts together with webmail, forwarding, autoresponders, SpamAssassin filtering, email blocking tools and incoming virus scanning.
The hosting environment includes MySQL databases with phpMyAdmin, CGI/Perl, SHTML, password-protected directories, custom error pages, website and FTP statistics, WordPress support and SSL functionality. Some of the technologies still associated with the packages, including
PHP 5, Microsoft FrontPage, Flash support and Fantastico, belong to an older generation of shared hosting. The website also retains a traditional frames-based layout rather than a modern responsive hosting storefront. Customers planning to run a current WordPress installation or newer PHP applications should confirm the active PHP versions and present server configuration before ordering.
Domain services are integrated into the hosting accounts. Customers can register new domains, transfer existing ones and manage renewals through their account. Additional domains can also be associated with the main hosting account and use its available resources. Each standard shared-hosting package includes a free domain.
Reseller Hosting is available for designers, agencies and small hosting businesses managing multiple customer accounts. Reseller pricing decreases as account volume increases, with brackets beginning at 1–10 accounts and extending to 40 or more accounts. Available resource levels range from 500 MB through 10 GB per hosting package, providing a relatively simple volume-discount model for resellers.
