Pelajar Hosting Introduction
Pelajar Hosting is an Asian hosting provider, offering a range of hosting services. The company is based in TangSen, Banten, Indonesia and uses servers located in Data Center Cyber Building in Jakarta, Indonesia.
Services and Specializations
Pelajar Hosting focuses on providing high quality LAMP-based hosting plans with a 99% uptime guarantee. Virtual Private Server (VPS) and dedicated hosting plans are not available; the company provides only shared and semi-dedicated plans. Windows hosting is not available, so if you need Microsoft technologies, you will have to look elsewhere.
Pelajar Hosting offers three very affordable LAMP cPanel shared hosting plans, but these are only available to students. Even these basic plans offer nice features, such as single click software installation via Softaculous, 50 GB monthly bandwidth and between 666 MB and 1.5 GB disk space.
Three personal shared LAMP cPanel plans are available as well, with features like 100 GB bandwidth, between 500 MB and 1.5 GB disk space, and support for an unlimited number of databases.
Business plans come in three different shared LAMP flavors with rich features, like 2 GB to 5 GB disk space with unlimited bandwidth, and support for an unlimited number of databases and email accounts.
With all shared hosting plans, customers get a free premium template for their web site, SEO and marketing tools, Cloudflare support, and Softaculous.
Pelajar Hosting’s semi-dedicated server offer consists of six different hosting packages. These are all LAMP and cPanel based, and all semi-dedicated hosting plans use SSD storage. Storage ranges from 10 GB to 70 GB, with dedicated RAM ranging from 1 to 8 GB. All semi-dedicated hosting plans offer free weekly backup service.
Pelajar Hosting Infrastructure
Pelajar Hosting uses a single datacenter in Indonesia with local internet connections. Further details about server and datacenter specifications are not available, so you may have to contact the company to find out more. We did manage to find out that all servers run on the CloudLinux OS.
Support and Customer Service
Details about Pelajar Hosting customer support services are hard to come by, in part due to the fact that the company’s website is only available in Indonesian. The Pelajar Hosting website lists the following support options: via SMS, live chat, BBM messaging, and a support ticketing system.
Further details about support availability are not listed, so you may have to contact the company to find out more.
Summary
We like the Pelajar Hosting’s decision to offer special hosting plans for students, providing young people with inexpensive access to quality hosting services. In other words, it’s a good first host for many people.
The company is clearly focused on the local, Indonesian market. It also employs Indonesian datacenters, so it’s obviously ideally suited to local users, but may be a good choice for Southeast Asia in general.
While Pelajar gives off a good impression, we must stress that the choice of hosting services is rather limited. With no VPS and dedicated servers, no Windows hosting, the company has limited itself to small businesses and individuals. High-growth businesses may need to scale, and Pelajar’s standard suite of shared plans might not be enough for such clients.
