Web hosting is a space on a server permanently connected to the Internet, where your site's files are stored: pages, images, code and databases. When a visitor types your address, their browser fetches these files from the server to display the page. The domain name is the site's address, the hosting is the place where it lives.
A web host is the company that provides this service. It operates the servers, keeps them up to date, protects them against attacks and ensures they remain available day and night. PlanetHoster has been doing this since 2007 on its own infrastructure, in Paris, Lausanne and Montreal.
Four web hosting plans, from shared to dedicated server, to choose according to your traffic:
A cloud web hosting where each project keeps its own resources, isolated from those of other clients.
The perfect ecosystem to launch and grow your ideas. Ideal for portfolios, showcases and business applications.
More space (50 GB) and more CPU and RAM than the Standard, for a site whose traffic is growing, up to about 30,000 visits per month.
Semi-dedicated web hosting with priority resources, for demanding e-commerce environments and critical SaaS applications, between 30,000 and 100,000 visits per month.
A 100% managed dedicated server, up to 32 CPU cores and 128 GB of RAM, for high-traffic sites, large catalogs and agencies.
On shared hosting, several sites share the resources of a single server. Semi-dedicated hosting guarantees priority resources to a limited number of clients. A VPS gives you a virtual server to administer yourself, while a dedicated server puts an entire machine at your disposal. The Web Projects of The World ecosystem cover shared and semi-dedicated hosting. HybridCloud takes over on the dedicated side and our VPS servers remain available if you want full control of the system.
Traffic is the best benchmark. A blog or showcase site under 10,000 monthly visits runs smoothly on the Standard Web Project, then the Plus Web Project supports growth up to around 30,000 visits. The Ultra Web Project takes over between 30,000 and 100,000 visits. It also suits stores with more than 200 products, since priority resources prevent slowdowns at checkout. Beyond that, HybridCloud becomes the logical answer.
The Standard Web Project suits showcase sites, portfolios and WordPress, Joomla or Drupal blogs, as well as small PrestaShop or WooCommerce stores. Each project keeps its own resources, isolated from other customers'. The Plus Web Project takes over when traffic grows, with more CPU and RAM and a 99.90% SLA.
The Ultra Web Project targets WooCommerce, PrestaShop or Magento stores and growing SaaS applications, running on LiteSpeed Enterprise with LSCache and LiteMage caching. Its most useful feature is Auto Peak Power: with one click it multiplies your project's RAM and CPU by 2.5 for the duration of a TV appearance, Black Friday or product launch. Agencies host up to 50 client sites on it, each with its own snapshots.
HybridCloud is a cloud server that is fully dedicated and managed by our technical team, with up to 32 CPU cores and 128 GB of RAM. It is aimed at media outlets, Magento or PrestaShop catalogs with several thousand references, and agencies managing hundreds of sites, with native API, CLI and CI/CD for technical teams.
Domain, web hosting, email, SSL certificates, creation tools, backups. Everything is centralized in the N0C panel, developed in-house. Lighter and more powerful than cPanel, compatible with iPhone, iPad, and Android.
The domain name is free for the first year across 15 extensions, including .fr, .eu, .be, .ch and .ca. PlanetHoster is an accredited registrar with ICANN, AFNIC, CIRA and Identity Digital. Let's Encrypt SSL certificates cover your domains and subdomains free of charge and renew automatically. Professional email addresses under your own name are unlimited, with webmail, antispam and antivirus.
Over 500,000 sites, an in-house support team and 99.99% availability over 12 months. A web host is judged the day something breaks. At PlanetHoster, the technicians who answer the phone, chat or tickets are company employees, and the average response time stays under 15 minutes, day and night. When a critical incident occurs, the on-call team split between Paris and Montreal takes over in 4 minutes on average. Out of 7,188 verified reviews, 96.8% of customers say they are satisfied.
You also choose where your data lives. For each project, the datacenter can be in Paris, Lausanne or Montreal, in Tier III and Tier IV certified facilities, ISO 27001 and SOC 2. A site targeting France stays in Europe, under GDPR and close to its visitors, while a shop selling in Quebec can settle in Montreal. The private network linking the three sites shows 69 ms latency between Paris and Montreal.
On a classic shared host, a greedy neighbour can slow down the whole server. Here, each account runs in an environment isolated by Cl
