Web hosting

Web hosting is a service required to publish and operate a private or business website under a domain name. The service provides web storage space (web space) that can be used for the respective website. With traditional web hosting (also known as “shared hosting”), website operators share server resources such as CPU and RAM with other web hosting customers.

The big advantage of web hosting from Switzerland is the data and server location. With Emubox's Swiss web hosting, valuable data such as web, e-mail and database data, as well as personal data, is stored in a highly secure data center in Switzerland. This is very relevant for business customers as well as many private customers. With web hosting from Switzerland, you can make sure your data is not stored abroad.

SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol) and SSH (Secure Shell) are included with all Emubox web hosting products. This allows you to establish a secure connection between your computer and our server and to transfer your data securely. You can also use the SSH console to execute important commands directly on your web server with us.

Yes, it does. Emubox supports not only all major CMSs (content management systems), but also some not so popular ones. Great part of our clients have web sites based on the following platforms: WordPress, Opencart, Prestashop, Magento, Drupal, Zencart, PHPbb, vBulletin, IPB, SMF, generating good amount of traffic every single day. The speed of our services helps them load faster and rank better. In the Plesk you can also see that we have a CMS installer, so you can build your web site with just a few clicks. Being online is easier with us and that's why our clients love us.

We keep your web, e-mail and database data for up to 180 days. The number of days varies depending on the web hosting product (up to 30 days for Standard, up to 90 days for Smart and up to a full 180 days for Business). We charge a flat fee of CHF 100 for every backup restoration. We cannot install backups for individual customers for cloud services such as Drive, Calendar and Address Books. We recommend that our customers keep local backup copies of important data. In addition, we mirror your web hosting data on several hard drives for even greater availability. We also recommend that our customers regularly back up their most important website data, databases and e-mails locally or in another secure location. This further increases the security of your data.

After your order has been placed, we review it and the billing department activates the account. This usually take no longer than a few minutes, so you don't have to wait. If there is any delay, please check whether your payment has been processed and feel free to contact us at any time.
