We offer you an affordable and reliable hosting solution that can be customised  to suit your needs. We make use of Locally (South Africa) Hosted Windows Severs to host the websites. Clients have access to the server via FTP (to upload the site) and a Control Panel to add e-mail accounts, as well as to manage other services on the server.

* Current Hosting Clients who would like to enjoy the additional Hard Disk Space and Pricing can contact our Support Team to request a migration to the new servers.

Which package would you recommend?

The package that we would recommend to all our clients is the Standard Package. The Starter and Basic Packages are for those clients who would like an e-mail address in their own domain (yourname@yourcompany.co.za) and perhaps a Splash Page in their own domain (www.yourcompany.co.za). Once your company has out grown the Standard Package, you can then move up to either the Professional, Premium or Platinum Packages.

The Standard, Professional, Premium and Platinum Packages offers you the most reward, as it is expandable to suit your needs.

What is a Domain Name and how to I check to see if the name I want to use is available?

A Domain Name is the name that will represent your company on the internet (www.yourcompany.co.za). South African companies will normally have a Domain Name that ends with .co.za to indicate that they are a company from South Africa. Only one company can register a specific name, and these names are allocated on a first come first serve basis.

Once you have checked and you find your name is available, it is important to then register the name as quickly as possible. Make use of the Sign Up provided at each package to sign up for a hosting account, which includes the registration of the domain.

What Payment Options can I make use of?

0526 Hosting can Invoice you either on a Monthly Basis, or every 3, 6 12, 24 months. Hosting Fees are payable in advance.

Payments are to be made directly into our Bank Account. You will be Invoiced monthly (or according to arrangement) on the same day that you signed up for the service. You will be required to pay the account within 7 days after the due date on the Invoice. Failure to do so will result in the suspension of the domain until all outstanding invoices have been paid and a late payment penalty charge will be levied on payments older than 30 days.

What Management Software is used?

We make use of CPanel/Helm (International) and Helm (South Africa) to allow our clients to access their Domain to be able to add e-mail accounts, perform backups, view statistics and a host of other features.

Where are the websites hosted?

International Hosting - All our websites are hosted in the AtlantaNAP Data Centre in Atlanta, Gerogia.

South African Hosting - All the servers are housed in Verizon’s Cape Town Data Centre. A simple adherence to WorldCom standards has resulted in one of the most advanced data centres in the country.

What if I would like to cancel my hosting, how do I go about doing this?

Should you no longer wish to host with 0526 Hosting, you will be required to give us 1 (one) calendar months notice of your intention to terminate hosting. Cancellations are to be done in the Client Area. At this time 0526 Hosting will transfer the control of the domain to you, or any person/company you authorise.

Who owns the Domain registered by 0526 Hosting?

All domains registered by 0526 Hosting for their clients, remains the property of said client. At no time will 0526 Hosting keep ownership of the domain. At the end of the hosting period 0526 Hosting will transfer the domain control to the owner or any person/company authorised by the client, as long as all outstanding fees owing to 0526 Hosting have been paid.
