tsoHost Review

With just around ten years of web hosting experience under their belt, tsoHost is a little bit of an enigma. I’m not crying false advertising, but there can be a little bit of new-user confusion over the statement of Cloud shared hosting here. For what they offer on those plans, I also feel that pricing is a little bit steep.

The fact that they’re UK-based is not such a big deal but you need to be alert that their pricing is not just in British Pounds but also subject to 20% Value Added Tax. Although tsoHost is upfront and clear about this, I advise you to do some mental calculations before looking at price tags and thinking the pricing is low.

Once you get over that, you’ll find that the feature set on offer here is pretty much standard and there’s nothing that really shouts out about the service. You get the usual balancing of pros and cons; for example, there’s the free domain name but no free SSL certificate, and so on. Even customer support is a balancing act with them offering live chat and phone support – although for limited hours each day.

At the end of the day, there really doesn’t seem to be anything remarkable or even overly disappointing about tsoHost. In terms of capability, they do have a range of plans that can meet most demands, all the way up to dedicated servers. As a whole, I’d say that this is perhaps a reasonable host to be with unless you’re targeting traffic from other regions. If so, you might be better off with a host that has a better spread of data center options.
