GoGetSpace Products

A lot has changed over the years, but one thing has remained the same for the last decade. The company has provided customers with hosting plan since they began. They offer various hosting options. You can choose from shared web hosting, WordPress hosting, VPS, dedicated servers, email servers and SEO hosting. I was given a test account to track the services provided.

Shared Web Hosting

GoGetSpace shared hosting plan features

GoGetSpace offers 2 types of shared hosting plans. You can choose from One Domain or Unlimited Domain shared hosting.

Both of these hosting plans share some similarities. They both include unlimited bandwidth and disk space. They also include free backups for their customers. All of the data is automatically backed up on a daily basis.

Some hosting companies take a while to make a site go live, but your hosting will be ready within a minute after you pay. You won't experience any downtime when you migrate your site to GoGetSpace from another host.

Both shared hosting plans come with one-click installation and support over 75 open scripts. This includes all of the major scripts, such as WordPress, Joomla, phpBB, and PrestaShop. They also support all of the popular programming languages such as PHP5, Ruby on Rails, PERL, and Python.

WordPress Hosting

GoGetSpace wordpress hosting plan features

GoGetSpace has 3 types of WordPress hosting packages available. Choose from Personal, Power Blog, and Business hosting plans.

All of these plans include unlimited bandwidth and email accounts. You also get a free domain name if you choose any of these plans. In addition, you get a free WordPress transfer with zero downtime. Your site will be up within a minute when you transfer it over.

All of the WordPress hosting plans come with a content delivery network (CDN). This system delivers webpages to users based on where they are located. This ensures faster load times all around the world. In addition, the hosting plans are built with fast SSD and RAID10 configurations, speeding up the sites even more.

GoGetSpace's WordPress hosting plans are managed, meaning that you don’t have to handle any of the updates or hosting issues. GoGetSpace takes care of everything for its users.

The plans are WP-CLI ready. If you prefer a command line, you can utilize these command line tools. You can also get help with the various tools by accessing the WordPress expert support staff. They are on standby 24/7, so you can always reach out and get help.

Like the shared hosting plans, you get full backups of your site with the WordPress hosting plans.

VPS Hosting

VPS hosting is another option. GoGetSpace has a VPS server in Fremont, California. The company uses an Intel Xeon processor with a CPU up to 2.66GHz and 4vCore. It includes RAID10 configuration with hard disk space up to 100 GB. These plans come with guaranteed RAM up to 16 GB and bandwidth up to 600 GB.

All of the VPS packages use an enterprise quality Dell server. The plans include full root access with SSH and a custom advanced policy firewall. They also have Tier 1 bandwidth and a dedicated IP address with open ports.

The server covers all major open source and paid operating systems, with different versions, including:

  • CentOS 5 and 6 (32 and 64 bit)
  • CentOS 7 (64 bit)
  • Ubuntu (64 bit)

While the other plans allow immediate access, it does take a few minutes to get the server ready when you purchase a plan. It is still very fast, though. It will be up in minutes.

Dedicated Servers

If you need a dedicated server, you can choose from Entry Level Server, Pro Server, and Business Class. The plans let you choose from single and multi-processor servers. The servers include configurable options, ranging from the RAM to the firewall.

If you can’t find a plan you like, GoGetSpace will build a dedicated server for you. Just let them know what you want and they will put it together.

All plans include a 99.999-percent uptime guarantee, blended bandwidth, the choice of OS, and more.

Email Servers

GoGetSpace offers bulk email servers that you can use to send bulk emails. These servers use dedicated IPs that are mapped to your area name. GoGetSpace sets up everything for you and rotates IPs when sending your bulk emails. All of the plans come with 24/7 monitoring and managed support. There are four packages available. Two packages use a 2-core GHz processor, and two use a 4-core GHz processor.

All servers include POP/IMAP connectivity, dedicated whitelist IPs, unlimited emails, and more.

SEO Hosting

Finally, you can get SEO hosting with this company. GoGetSpace offers different sets of IPs from data centers that are located in various locations. IPs include a separate control panel and server for each website. This makes it easier to build backlinks. Choose plans based on the number of IPs and amount of space that you need. All come with unlimited bandwidth. They also include subdomains, webmail, daily backups, instant free setup, and more.

[icon file-text-alt] Response from GoGetSpace

Very soon we are coming with a new type of hosting called “Elastic hosting” developed by Cloud linux team, which will help people to get a VPS like resource when they are still using Shared hosting service. In this hosting type they can save money and also they dont need the knowledge of operating unmanaged VPS. We are also providing IPv6 enable server upon client request.

Pros: What I Like About GoGetSpace

I liked several things about GoGetSpace. Check out some of my favorite points.

1. Clear money back guarantee policy

First, I really like the very clear money back guarantee policy. Some companies include a lot of red tape, but that isn’t the case with GoGetSpace. The policy is unconditional, so you can try a hosting plan without worrying.

The policy is even better with the WordPress hosting. You get a total of 30 full days to try the service out. You can start with the trial and then make use of the money back guarantee policy. If you aren’t happy for any reason, you can cancel and get your money back. This shows a confidence in the service. The company is confident that you will be satisfied, so they want you to try it out.

2. Clear about the hardware clients are using

Many companies remain tight-lipped about the hardware they use. You don’t have to worry about that with GoGetSpace, though. They are proud to tell you that they use Dell professional servers and Cisco network equipment.

Hardware is a big deal for consumers. It impacts the quality of the service, so it is good to know what you are using upfront. They have nothing to hide, and that is important.

[icon file-text-alt] Response from GoGetSpace

GoGetSpace own all the servers, network equipment, licenses etc in our every data centre. in this way we have 100% control in our equipment. We also keep hardware inventory in our every data centre so we can immediately replace any faulty hardware in the event of failure.

3. Reasonable pricing

GoGetSpace isn’t the cheapest web hosts out there, and they don’t claim to be. However, you get what you pay for, and GoGetSpace offers a lot of value for the money. GoGetSpace provides access to enterprise level hardware, 24/7 tech support, the latest software, and a handful of blogs and tutorials at an affordable price. If you are interested in value for the money, you will get it with GoGetSpace.

Cons: Important To Know

Now, let’s look at some things that are important to know. You need to know these things before you sign up with GoGetSpace.

1. Limited server resources

Although GoGetSpace has set a guideline on “unlimited disk space and bandwidth/data transfer” for everyone to enjoy the optimum service, you still have to be cautious about the resources. The company will notify you when you consume 100% of 1 CPU core, and/or 1 GB memory and/or 20 concurrent connections. When you hit the limit, you may be asked to upgrade your package to a more suitable hosting package.

2. Backup only store for 24 hours

GoGetSpace does backup your server, but the company only keeps a copy of its server backup for 24 hours. The backups are only available for disaster recovery purposes. It doesn’t provide or keep records of clients’ website files. They do provide you with a backup tool, and it is advised that you use it.

3. Late fee charges

GoGetSpace hopes customers to pay for their hosting plan on time and in case you don't, you will be charged late fees. They company will charge you a minimum of $5 or 5% of the total value of the invoice once it's five days overdue. Your invoice will automatically be marked overdue by the billing system and your account will be suspended after the grace period.
