Top 10 Web Hosting Senegal 🔟

Gouy Host.sn

Gouyhost is a Senegalese hosting and digital-services company based in Dakar, active since 2016. Its activities combine web hosting, server infrastructure, domain registration and related online services for individuals, entrepreneurs, agencies and businesses. The company operates under NINEA SN197763863 from Mermoz Pyrotechnique in Dakar.

The portfolio includes Shared Hosting, VPS, Dedicated Servers, Cloud Hosting, Reseller Hosting, Domains, SSL Certificates, Professional Email, Website Backup, Website Security and Website Building. Gouyhost also provides services related to WordPress, SEO, UX design, Google Analytics, copywriting and email marketing, giving customers access to both infrastructure and broader website-development services.

The main Shared Hosting range is divided into Pack Pro, Pack Expert and Pack Entreprise. Pack Pro targets blogs and presentation websites with 10 GB of web space and 50 GB of bandwidth. Pack Expert raises the resources to 50 GB of storage and 100 GB of bandwidth, while Pack Entreprise provides 100 GB of storage and 1,000 GB of bandwidth. The shared environment includes a web hosting control panel, application installation tools, SSL support and domain-related benefits on eligible packages.

The VPS Hosting range provides more isolated resources for applications that need greater performance and administrative flexibility. A current VPS configuration includes 1 CPU with 2 cores, 10 GB RAM, 100 GB SSD storage, 100 GB traffic and a 100 Mbit/s connection. Linux is supported, one IP address is included and Let’s Encrypt SSL can be used. Management options include cPanel, Virtualmin and Webmin.

A second VPS configuration appearing elsewhere in the catalog uses 2 processor cores, 8 GB RAM and 300 GB SSD storage. Because resource combinations vary between the available VPS offers, customers should confirm the exact CPU, RAM, storage and traffic allocation attached to the selected package before ordering.

For larger workloads, Dedicated Servers provide a complete physical server environment. One current configuration includes 1 CPU with 8 cores, 32 GB RAM, 600 GB SSD storage in RAID 1, 1,000 GB of guaranteed traffic and a listed 1 GB/s connection. One IP address and Let’s Encrypt SSL are included. This gives Gouyhost a natural upgrade route from shared hosting and VPS to dedicated hardware.

Cloud Hosting is also available for customers who prefer pooled computing resources and greater flexibility. The cloud platform is intended for projects that need scalable CPU, memory and storage rather than the fixed limits of a traditional shared hosting account.

Reseller Hosting is aimed at agencies, web developers and entrepreneurs who want to create and manage hosting accounts for their own customers. The reseller environment uses cPanel/WHM, making account provisioning and administration familiar to users already working with the cPanel ecosystem.

Domain services include registration and transfer of international extensions together with Senegal's .sn namespace. Customers retain control over DNS management and their domain names. Typical pricing includes .com at around 8,500 FCFA per year, .org, .net and .info at around 9,500 FCFA, .biz around 11,000 FCFA and .sn around 26,000 FCFA, although the final registration and renewal price can vary by extension and offer.

The website is primarily available in French, with products generally priced in FCFA/XOF. Some English-language content also exists, but the main customer experience remains oriented toward French-speaking users in Senegal and neighboring markets. [visit website gouyhost.sn]

arc.sn

Groupe ARC is a Senegalese technology, telecommunications, cloud, and IT integration company founded in 1993 by Mohsen Chirara, who started the business at the age of 25. ARC began as a systems integrator, added Internet services in 1996, expanded into Mali in 2000, became an Internet access provider, launched ARC Telecom in 2018, deployed its VSAT network in 2019, and received authorization to provide telephony services in 2020. The group has developed into a regional technology provider with more than 60 employees across Senegal and Mali, more than 3,000 customers, and over 30 technology partnerships.

Its activity is considerably broader than conventional web hosting. The portfolio combines Cloud Hosting, VPS, Dedicated Servers, Backup and Disaster Recovery, Managed Services, Security as a Service, business applications, Internet connectivity, networking, telecommunications, IT infrastructure, hardware supply, software engineering, and systems integration. Connectivity and telecom services are handled through ARC Telecom (arctelecom.sn), while ARC As A Service brings together cloud infrastructure, software, equipment, and managed technology services.

The cloud platform is hosted in Senegal and uses redundant infrastructure suitable for companies that want their workloads and business data kept locally. Linux, Windows, and VMware environments are supported, while ARC's application and infrastructure work also includes OpenStack-based environments for on-demand hosting. This local approach is useful for Senegalese organizations that need data residency, private connectivity, and access to a nearby technical team.

The Cloud VPS Professional platform is designed for business workloads rather than basic entry-level hosting. Virtual servers use KVM or an equivalent enterprise virtualization layer, with dedicated vCPU resources, guaranteed RAM, SSD/NVMe storage, a dedicated public IP address, snapshots, backups, and full root or administrator access. Additional services can include external backups, PRA/PCA disaster recovery, managed firewalls, site-to-site VPNs, extra IP addresses, managed patching, monitoring, and operational maintenance. Firewall isolation is included, while DDoS protection can be added when required.

Dedicated Servers are available for customers needing complete physical isolation or heavier workloads. Typical configurations use Intel Xeon processors, RAID storage with SSD or HDD options, and approximately 32 GB to 256 GB of RAM. These systems are appropriate for ERP platforms, virtualization, large storage requirements, databases, and other critical business applications.

Storage and backup form another important part of the infrastructure portfolio. Storage can be accessed through S3-compatible interfaces, FTP, and CIFS, with scheduled backups and AES encryption. Backup as a Service and disaster recovery use Veeam (veeam.com) technologies for externalized backups, replication, ransomware-resistant immutable backup, cloud archiving, and restoration. ARC can also supervise these services directly, which is useful for organizations that prefer to outsource backup operations instead of maintaining their own backup infrastructure.

Security services cover servers, endpoints, mobile devices, firewalls, and cloud infrastructure. ARC also works with Sophos (sophos.com) as part of its managed security activity, providing centralized security management and threat monitoring. These services can be combined with managed firewalls, private networks, and the company's telecom infrastructure.

Applications as a Service covers collaborative messaging, monitoring, SMS, and USSD solutions, while the broader integration portfolio includes Microsoft 365 and other business platforms. ARC also supplies and integrates servers, storage, virtualization, replication, and network infrastructure, with technology partnerships that include HPE (hpe.com) and Cisco (cisco.com).

ARC differs noticeably from providers centered on cheap shared hosting. The main focus is professional infrastructure, customized cloud services, dedicated systems, managed IT, cybersecurity, and telecommunications. Traditional Shared Hosting, Reseller Hosting, domain-registration bundles, website builders, and standard cPanel-style packages are not central to the current offer.

Hosting can also be combined with Fibre Pro, dedicated Internet, SD-WAN, L2/L3 VPN, wireless connectivity, VSAT, and satellite services. Dedicated Internet includes symmetrical bandwidth and 1:1 contention, while SD-WAN supports multiple links with automatic failover. This integration is particularly attractive for companies with several offices or critical systems that need both hosting infrastructure and managed connectivity from the same provider.

The company operates mainly in French, with no complete multi-language/localized version. Commercial pricing throughout the telecom side of the group is mainly expressed in FCFA / CFA francs. The current ARC Telecom product range is especially useful for understanding the technical level of the VPS, dedicated server, storage, backup, and managed service portfolio. [visit website arc.sn]
