Frequently asked questions

If you still have unanswered questions, please reach out to us and we’ll be happy to assist.

Focus on support – Most web hosting companies offer the same plans and prices, but swift, effective, personable, human support is invaluable.

Server location – A local server means low latencies.

Website uptime – Constant website uptime is imperative for anyone running a serious business or website.

Server speeds – The less time you spend waiting on things to load the better. We ensure you make the most of your time by using LiteSpeed caching, Mod Security WAF, Imunify360, and more.

Software & backups – You want solid web hosting management software and automatic backups that don’t count towards your disk space allocation.

Personable – You want a company that can help you scale your project while treating you like a valued friend the entire time.

Flexible – Flexibility in products and contract length means you can tailor what said hosting company has to your needs.

Simply reach out to us and we’ll assist you with your website migration. We’ll help move everything you need. We’ll also spot you free domain name transfers.

Disk space is the storage capacity on your server. It works similarly to the storage capacity of your standard laptop or computer.

Think of a sub-domain as the child of the main domain. It shares a strong relation and connection but it’s a different website. For example, my.hostafrica.com is a subdomain of hostafrica.com.

Web hosting is buying space on a server for a website to exist on the internet, while domain registration is buying the address so people can find that space on the internet.

You need both web hosting and domain registration for your website to be accessible. Similar to a house needing an address and an address being useless without a house.

Bandwidth refers to the amount of data that you can transfer to and receive from your users over time. So, if your website requires many large pages to load for thousands of visitors, you’ll need a larger bandwidth for those things to load at a good speed.

Essentially, your website stays on a web server owned by a hosting company. The hosting company will provide you with space on the web server, as well as the tools you need to manage your website, as a service.

PHP web hosting provides all the tools you’ll need to build, host, manage, and serve fast, dynamic websites built with PHP:

  • An FTP account to upload your PHP scripts,
  • Web servers that run PHP handlers to process your scripts to serve your website and manipulate databases,
  • MySQL database management system to manage your data using PHP, and
  • CMSs to manage your content.

A domain name is a human-readable word that directs people to a specific IP address. Website addresses are actually long numbers. Instead of remembering the number, we assign a domain name to the number. The same way your name and ID document works.

Absolutely, it can affect SEO in the following ways:

Page load time: Slow page load time is a bad SEO signal because it provides a poor user experience, which will hurt your website rankings

Server uptime, which means website uptime: Google will actually begin to de-index your website if it has more than a couple of days of downtime.

Server location: Search engines like Google use server location and domain names as relevancy signals for local users. So, hosting your website on a web server in Africa with a .africa domain will rank better for visitors in Africa.
