    GoDaddy Customer

    I have been with GoDaddy for over ten years now and have never had a problem with them. I have tried other server hosting for different projects over the years but for what GoDaddy does, they are the best I have seen. Any problems I have had have been met with the best customer service I have seen in the business. Just an overall fantastic experience.

    Chris Bird

    I am happy with the server on GoDaddy. The domain works fine, there was no problem with the server for the whole year,

    Frequently asked questions (FAQ) about VPS Hosting

    What is the difference between managed vs. unmanaged (Self Managed) VPS? And how do I determine which is best for me?

    Unmanaged VPS (also known as “Self-Managed VPS”) tends to require an advanced degree of technical know-how and basic understanding of Linux and the command line. Unmanaged VPS hosting plans allows you to configure and update VPS hosting to your exact preference.

    But, if you prefer to have an expert manage your hosting and the tech stuff (freeing up more time for you to focus on your business), then Fully-Managed VPS Hosting might be the right choice to fulfill your hosting needs.

    Which operating system can I run on my server?

    GoDaddy VPS Hosting offers both Linux (CentOS or Ubuntu) and Windows Server. 

    Do you provide Windows VPS hosting?

    Yes! We offer Windows VPS hosting with resources staring at 2 GB RAM up to 32 GB RAM. Plus, you may add Plesk Obsidian Web Host Edition (for WordPress and website administration) to create and manage your sites.

    How many IPs are included with VPS hosting?

    GoDaddy VPS Hosting (with the exception of the Basic plan) includes up to three free dedicated IP addresses to use for custom applications, staging sites, email and other administration tasks.

    • Custom software and applications: If you’re running any custom software on your server then you might require a dedicated IP address. Some types of server software will require a dedicated IP in order to function properly.
    • Control Panel Management: Separate your sites and your control panel onto 2 different IP addresses for security and to isolate services.
    • Email deliverability: A dedicated IP protects your reputation and ensures your emails get delivered to their intended recipients. If you’re using domain-based email (i.e., myemail@mydomain.com) you may potentially run into email delivery issues. (Please note: If you use a shared IP address with your email — with other users on the same shared IP address — you run a greater risk of your IP getting blocklisted or blocked.) 

    Where are the servers located?

    GoDaddy servers are located around the globe. Choose your server location during setup in North America, Europe or Asia-Pacific.

    What is PCI compliance?

    The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI-DSS or PCI for short) designates security standards to protect cardholders’ credit card data. That means, entities that store, process or transmit credit card information are expected to be compliant to the standards in the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards.

    How can I accept credit cards online?

    Our hosting services are a great place to setup your online presence and product catalog. You can then work with a third-party provider to process payments on your behalf to keep credit cards off your server. Whichever path you choose, make sure to be informed of additional requirements to keep your business PCI compliant.

    What are the additional requirements I should know about?

    We recommend you work with your payment provider (e.g., PayPal Checkout, Square Online Checkout and Stripe Checkout) to understand any additional requirements for which you are responsible. If you’re using one of our PCI-certified products, we have a simplified checklist for you here.

    Does VPS require a lot of technical knowledge?

    Yes, VPS hosting is best suited for web developers and system administrators that have the technical knowledge to manage a server. VPS offers more power and flexibility than standard shared hosting, and with it comes more server management complexity. But for those looking for the power of VPS — and the simplicity of a standard cPanel experience to manage their sites — we recommend GoDaddy Web Hosting Plus.

    Why should I choose VPS hosting from GoDaddy?

    If you’re looking for credibility and stability in your VPS hosting provider, know that we’re the world’s #1 hosting provider. That means millions of people trust their sites and applications to GoDaddy. We offer high-performance KVM VPS hosting with flexible configurations for every budget, including automated weekly backups with scheduling and on-demand, monitoring, alert tools and expert support.

    You also get to choose from Linux or Windows operating systems with optional control panels (cPanel/WHM or Plesk Obsidian Webhost Edition). And for those that don’t have the time or skill set to manage their server, we offer Fully Managed VPS hosting or one-time paid task-based services. 

    Are backups included in VPS hosting plans?

    Yes. All VPS hosting includes automated weekly snapshots so you can schedule backup time – or create a backup on demand.

    What are the real advantages of using VPS hosting?

    VPS hosting gives you high performance with an isolated environment where the CPU, RAM and storage is 100% dedicated and not shared with any other websites or apps. That, compared to shared hosting, results in higher performance and security along with more flexibility and control over the server. 
     
    VPS hosting also offers higher resources and bandwidth/traffic than shared hosting, which means faster load times and unlimited traffic. A VPS allows the admin more control over security hardening and is less vulnerable to hackers in comparison to shared hosting. With shared hosting, if a site gets hacked there’s a greater chance that other websites on the server will also be compromised. Conversely, due to virtual isolation, a hacked VPS on the same hardware, won’t affect surrounding VPS environments.

    And with root access, there are no restrictions on the applications you install; you can access and edit the system files, settings and server logons.

    How long does it take to provision my server?

    Although the average time for us to provision your account will likely be mere minutes, it may take up to 24 hours or more. But, if you need your hosting right away, please call us and we'll do our best to speed things up.
    Let’s keep your website or app selling – and PCI-compliant.
    The Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI-SSC) sets standards to protect credit card data. Namely, entities that transmit, process or store credit card information are expected to abide by the standards of the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards. To accept credit card payments through your website, you’ll need to ensure your customer payment information is safe and that you’re following the PCI requirements. And to simplify this process, third-party products like PayPal Checkout, Square Online Checkout and Stripe Checkout can be added to your website to process payments on your behalf (and keep credit card data off your hosting server). Make sure you’re aware of any additional requirements to keep your business PCI compliant.

    If you prefer to process payments directly on your server, we offer PCI-certified products like WordPress Ecommerce Hosting and the GoDaddy Online Store.
