Pros and cons

Pros

  • Introductory and renewal prices match on the entry shared Linux plan, XOF 1,020.83 at the start and XOF 1,020.83 at renewal, so nothing changes when the term rolls over
  • The catalogue covers shared hosting (cPanel/Linux), cloud VPS and WordPress hosting, with data centres in Morocco and Europe
  • Included features cover free ssl, backups and email, listed as part of the plan rather than a paid extra
  • The terms set out a 30 day money-back window on top of the standard refund path

Cons

  • Support runs on phone and email only, with no live chat or help centre listed
  • The entry WordPress plan allows 1 website, so a second site means moving up a plan
  • A 30 day money-back window is an ordinary setting, placing 35 of 275 brands on that measure

Who it suits

  • Small businesses that want hosting and Google Workspace email under the same roof
  • Resellers and agencies needing cPanel/WHM reseller plans plus server management
  • First-time site owners who want free SSL, backups and email included in the plan

Who should look elsewhere

  • Buyers after a paid-free starting point, since Render lists $0 and works on a different basis
  • Shoppers who want a provider in their own market: Hosting.cl lists CLP 159,900 for Chilean buyers, while this range bills elsewhere
  • Anyone who needs live chat, because support runs on phone and email only

Intro and renewal prices

The entry shared Linux plan is listed at XOF 1,020.83 to start, and its renewal price is XOF 1,020.83. The two figures are identical, so the cost at renewal matches the cost at entry and the first term sets the pattern for later ones. Larger plans across the range, from cloud VPS to dedicated servers, are quoted separately.

The company behind it

The company trades as HOSTOWEB SARL/AU, is headquartered in Morocco and has been in business since 2006. Its data centres sit in Morocco and Europe. Day to day, support runs on phone and email, so a phone call or an email is the stated route to the team rather than a live chat window.

Frequently asked questions

How much is the entry hosting plan, and does the price change at renewal?+

The entry shared Linux plan starts at XOF 1,020.83 and renews at XOF 1,020.83. The two figures are the same, so the entry price carries through to the renewal rather than jumping afterwards. Higher plans, including cloud VPS, WordPress and dedicated servers, are priced separately.

Is there a money-back period?+

Yes. The terms set out a money-back window of 30 days, giving a full month to change your mind. That matches the upper end of money-back windows across this group, 30 days, so the guarantee is competitive without being unusual.

What kinds of hosting and email are available?+

The catalogue spans shared hosting (cPanel/Linux), cloud VPS and WordPress hosting. A first shared site, a WordPress build, a store, a reseller operation and a mail setup can all sit with the same provider, and Google Workspace email is part of the range. Server management is sold alongside the hosting for clients who want the box run for them.

Where are the servers and the company based?+

Hostoweb CI is headquartered in Morocco and trades as HOSTOWEB SARL/AU. Its data centres are listed in Morocco and Europe, so sites are served from Morocco and Europe rather than from a single location. The company has been trading since 2006.

How do you reach support?+

Support runs on phone and email, so a phone call or an email is the route in. Live chat is not listed and there is no help centre listed. Clients with reseller or server management work can look to the managed service for the technical side.

What comes with the plans, and what are the limits?+

Included features cover free ssl, backups and email. The uptime guarantee on WordPress hosting is 99.9%, and the entry WordPress plan allows 1 website, so a second site pushes you to a higher plan. Support is by phone and email.

Who is Hostoweb CI aimed at?+

The stated audience is beginners, small business and enterprise, so beginners, small businesses and enterprise buyers all sit inside the same range. The breadth means one provider can take a first shared site and a colocation rack, which suits firms expecting to move past shared hosting.

How does the entry price compare with the other hosts here?+

Hostoweb CI lists XOF 1,020.83 at entry, Hosting.cl lists CLP 159,900 and Afrihost lists ZAR 84. Render lists $0. Each is quoted in its own currency, so the entry points sit at different scales and the smallest headline figure is not the whole bill.
