Frequently asked questions
What does Visual Online cost to start?+
The shared hosting plan opens at €16, and free SSL and email come with it through free ssl and email. Against the site median entry price of €2.99, Visual Online reads as a mid-priced option rather than the cheapest way in.
What is included in the plan?+
Shared hosting from Visual Online includes free SSL and email, as listed in free ssl and email. The wider catalogue in shared hosting, dedicated servers and email hosting means a business can add email hosting, domains or a dedicated server later with the same provider.
Who is Visual Online built for?+
The stated audience is small business, so the plans aim at company sites and mailboxes rather than hobby projects. Visual Online has operated since 1996 and is registered in Luxembourg as Visual Online S.A..
Where do the servers run?+
Hosting runs from Contern, Luxembourg, and the company's headquarters sit in Luxembourg. Colocation sits inside the range in shared hosting, dedicated servers and email hosting, so businesses can place their own hardware in the same facility.
How do I reach support?+
Support runs on phone, email and help centre, so phone, email and a help centre are the listed routes. Live chat is not among them, which matters for buyers who want quick answers outside office hours.
How does the entry price compare with other providers?+
Visual Online's shared hosting opens at €16. Hosting.cl lists CLP 159,900 and Afrihost lists ZAR 84, while Render starts at $0, so currency and market matter as much as the number.
What kinds of hosting can I buy?+
The catalogue in shared hosting, dedicated servers and email hosting runs from shared hosting to dedicated servers, plus email hosting, domains and colocation. That range suits a small business starting on shared space and moving up without migrating to another provider.
