Prices & Buying Advice

  • price positioning: The official website presents common long lead time discounts and “start with a low threshold program” pricing (based on real-time prices).
  • Offers & Events: The pricing page displays information about package discounts, cancelability, and 30-day refunds; it is recommended to synchronize the exceptions to the refund terms before purchasing.
  • How to choose
    • Beginners/Small Sites: Prioritize Web Hosting / WordPress hosting + nearest regional node; if you need a domain, choose an eligible “free 1-year domain” plan.
    • Steadily grow the business: consider Cloud Hosting (including integrated CDN descriptions) to reduce self-managed operations and maintenance costs.
    • Development/Self-managed: Select KVM or VPS (Linux). Note: Windows VPS is not supported.

for whom

  • Newbies and small and medium-sized teams who want a one-stop shop for hosting + domain name + website building tools.
  • Cross-border business for visitors from multiple regions (multi-regional nodes + the CDN approach).
  • Users who want simple panel management and online support at their fingertips.

Not really for anyone.

  • Windows VPS required scenarios (officially, Windows VPS is explicitly not provided).
  • Users who bought only certain domains/services and want a “non-refundable” refund (refunds have non-refundable items and conditions).
  • Users who are strongly dependent on the “specified city/node” and cannot accept inventory adjustments (nodes are subject to change).
