What you Need to host your Canadian Website
Getting a website online is not always easy, which is why we have this short guide to explain the steps for getting started with your Canadian web hosting.
Control your Hosting with cPanel
All our Canadian hosting plans come with a cPanel control panel! You can manage your web hosting by yourself.
Place Your Website on Our Canadian Hosting Servers
It is time to get your site online. Whether you need WordPress hosting or a custom site, it can be done in a few clicks.
Enjoy the Advantages of Web Hosting in Canada
Using our Canada web hosting SSD servers gives you several advantages. Your website will be closer to your visitors. This equals faster website load time!
Find a Name for Your Web Hosting
The first step is to come up with a catchy website name that will capture the attention of future visitors.
Choose Your Domain Name
Once your web hosting name is found, you need to purchase a unique domain name. I suggest a name that is short and easy to remember.
Selecting Your SSD Web Hosting
SSD web hosting is the space online where your website will reside. It is also the place where you will create email addresses.
How to Choose your Canadian Web Hosting
The cost of website hosting will vary depending on several criteria. Basically, the more visitors a website has, the higher the hosting cost is likely to be.
We generally recommend that you start low and increase your website hosting plan as your site grows.

Some questions and answers!
You will find the answers to the most popular questions in the frequently asked questions. Don’t hesitate to contact us if your question is not there, or if you need more information.
Web hosting is a placeholder for your website on one of our servers. Servers stay online at all times, ensuring your website is accessible 24 hours a day. A web hosting package usually plays 2 roles:
The first; hosting is used to store all the files for your website. Whether they are images, .PDF files, videos, text, scripts, etc.
The second; it also hosts the necessary platform for the operation of your mailboxes. All emails you receive will be temporarily stored in your hosting plan until your devices access it to retrieve a copy.
A domain name simply represents an address on the internet. This address is used to access web content, to send e-mails to the right recipient, to access other services … The domain name alone does not serve much purpose. (Except to prevent a competitor from registering this domain and using it) It should normally point to a web hosting service.
Our technicians are available if you are having difficulties and need assistance to direct your domain name to your web hosting.
Several factors can influence the ideal hosting package for your site. Some sites, like those using a WordPress platform, may contain many modules. These modules can sometimes be very demanding for hosting in terms of required resources. So, two different websites working with WordPress and having the same amount of traffic may need different packages. In general, here are the guidelines to help you choose a hosting product:
ECO web hosting package:
This basic package can be used by most websites. This web hosting package can be chosen if you do not need SSL / TLS security certificate and if you only use one domain name.
PLUS web hosting package:
This package offers more power than the ECO package and allows the installation of an SSL / TLS security certificate. This is the ideal choice if you want to secure your website, but also if you intend to use more than one domain name on your web hosting.
PRO web hosting package:
The PRO package is our most popular hosting package! It contains the resources necessary to run most of the complex web sites, having a lot of traffic, or requiring more resources than the average. Plus, get a free basic SSL / TLS security certificate!
BUSINESS web hosting package:
The most powerful of all our web hosting packages. This package is perfect for sites with very large volume, very complex and / or specialized content.
With this package, we even offer a free domain name (as long as you keep hosting active) and a basic SSL / TLS security certificate for the first year.
SSL / TLS security certificates are used to encrypt the information exchanged between your website (our server) and your client (his computer). In theory, when a person is asked to enter information on your website (form, member section, online store, etc.), you should have a security certificate.
The certificate is also used to increase the reputation / credibility of your site in search engines such as Google. Search engines have recently started to rank websites with an SSL / TLS security certificate configured in the hosting.
Since July 1, 2018, all sites with no SSL / TLS certificate is identified as “unsafe” in most web browsers.
We offer robust and fast Canadian web hosting. Our experts are constantly improving the architecture so that we always remain at the cutting edge of technology, ensuring the best value for your money in the Canadian market.

Choose only what you need to start. Our web hosting packages will evolve with you when the need does. Start with our smallest ECO package and as your resource needs grow, your package will keep up. It is possible to upgrade your plan and pay only the prorated difference.
Yes, our servers are compatible with almost all types of websites.
Several PHP versions are available in all our Linux servers (versions 4.4 up to the most recent).
