We've Upgraded Your Hosting Platform

We're excited to announce that we have completed a comprehensive upgrade to our shared web hosting platform. Your account has been migrated to a brand-new, more powerful server with significant improvements in security, performance, and features.

What's New

Enhanced Security

  • ImunifyAV Malware Scanner — Professional antivirus protection now actively scans your hosting account for malware, backdoors, web shells, and other threats.
  • CageFS Isolation — Your account runs in its own secure, isolated environment. Other accounts on the server cannot access your files.
  • Advanced Firewall (CSF) — Enterprise-grade firewall with automatic brute-force protection for your email, FTP, and control panel logins.
  • Free SSL Certificates — Let's Encrypt SSL is now automatically issued and renewed for all your domains at no extra cost.
  • Encrypted Email — Full SSL/TLS support for IMAP, POP3, and SMTP connections, keeping your email communications private.

Better Performance

  • New Server Hardware — Our new server features significantly more memory and storage capacity, meaning faster load times for your website.
  • Modern Operating System — CloudLinux 9, an enterprise-grade OS with the latest security patches, supported through 2032.
  • Fair Resource Allocation — CloudLinux LVE technology ensures that no single account can consume all server resources, keeping performance consistent for everyone.
  • Updated Software Stack — Apache 2.4.66, MariaDB 10.11, and the latest PHP versions (5.2 through 8.5) for maximum compatibility and speed.

Upgraded Control Panel

  • InterWorx 8 — A completely refreshed, modern control panel interface that's easier to navigate.
  • Multi-PHP Support — Choose your preferred PHP version per domain (PHP 5.2 through 8.5) directly from your control panel.
  • PHPMyAdmin 5.2 — The latest version for managing your MySQL databases.
  • Roundcube Webmail — A modern, responsive webmail client for accessing your email from any browser.

Email Improvements

  • Spam Filtering — Proxmox Mail Gateway provides enterprise-grade spam and virus filtering before messages reach your inbox.
  • Improved Deliverability — New server IP with clean reputation for better email delivery rates.

What You Need to Do

In most cases, no action is required on your part. Your website, email, databases, and files have been migrated automatically.

However, please note:

  • If you use a desktop email client (Outlook, Thunderbird, Apple Mail, etc.), you may be prompted to accept the new SSL certificate. Simply accept it to continue.
  • If you experience any issues accessing your account or services, please open a support ticket and we'll assist you promptly.
