JDCHost Introduction
JDCHost is a Philippines-based hosting provider specializing in affordable, reliable hosting services. They offer one of the largest selections of shared hosting packages we’ve come across.
Services and Specializations
JDCHost offers four shared hosting plans available without a domain purchase and three additional plans for customers purchasing a domain as well. All plans include SSD storage, cPanel control panel, unlimited subdomains, LiteSpeed web server, MariaDB database server, RVSiteBuilder Pro, Softaculous one-click installations, and web stats. Plans vary by storage space, bandwidth, as well as the number of add-on domains, databases, and FTP accounts supported.
JDCHost also offers a free, 1-month trial plan, which includes all the same benefits as their starter plan. If you decide to go with the trial, be aware that after your month is up your plan will be automatically cancelled if you haven’t upgraded.
JDCHost offers unlimited hosting based in the USA, India, United Kingdom, and Turkey. These include unlimited storage, bandwidth, email accounts, and databases. SSL Certification and dedicated IP addresses are also available for eCommerce sites. Each location offers its own set of plans based on the number of domains that can be hosted, so be sure to carefully review your desired location.
Support and Customer Service
Support is available through Facebook chat, SMS, and phone, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Backups
All plans include a 30-day trial of R1Soft CDP Backups. In addition, users can set up manual backups via cPanel.
Uptime Guarantee
JDCHost offers a 99.9% uptime guarantee. In the case of excessive downtown, unless the result of circumstances beyond JDCHost’s control, customers may be eligible for a partial refund of that month’s payment.
Billing and Payment Policies
JDCHost accepts Visa, MasterCard, and PayPal. For local customers, they also accept payment in Philippine peso via bank transfers and local remittance centers.
JDCHost contract terms are a little unusual. Their starter package is the only plan available with monthly payments. All other plans without a domain registration are available with a 6-month, 1-year, or 2-year commitment. Plans that include domain registration are only available with an annual contract.
Cancellation requests can be made at any time by contacting the billing department.
Conclusion
JDCHost offers a much larger selection of shared hosting plans than you typically find with other hosts, and the ability to pay in local currency without a credit card is definitely a plus. It is somewhat unusual that plans are separated between those with a domain registrations and those without, rather than simply adding domain registration on top of a smaller selection of plans, but that’s a minor issue, provided they have a plan that meets your needs.
They do not offer any VPS or dedicated plans, so organizations looking for a higher level of security or control will have to look elsewhere. However, if you are just seeking more resources or a dedicated IP address, their unlimited plans should work just fine.
