CentOS is one of the most widely used Operating Systems for website hosting servers. It is one of the numerous Linux distributions available, yet what differentiates it from all of the others is its long-term support, which guarantees that you'll always have a stable and safe Operating System. Every CentOS version that is released is supported for ten years, that is much longer than with another OS out there. CentOS also has a much larger developer community than other distributions, so if you encounter any problem or have some questions, you will be able to quickly discover the data that you need. CentOS is considered to be one of the best server Operating Systems, because it's very stable and protected, that makes it very reliable even when you host private info. Due to the fact that it is open-source, you can modify any part of it and customize it according to your requirements, not to mention that the total cost for a CentOS-based server will be lower, because you won't have to pay license fees of any sort.

CentOS in VPS Hosting

You will be able to select CentOS for your new virtual private server during the registration process. We provide 32-bit and 64-bit versions, so as to give you the opportunity to select the one that is more suitable for the applications that you wish to set up and manage. CentOS supports a number of hosting Control Panels, so you will have a choice between cPanel, Hepsia and DirectAdmin, based on what you'd like to do - to set up a separate account for every single domain name hosted on your server and even to start your own reseller business, or to host all your domains at the same time and control the server as one single account. You will also have the option to acquire your VPS without any Control Panel in case you need a machine with CentOS, but with no extra software that is provided with the Control Panels. This way, you can set up web or database servers that are different from the standard ones that we supply.

CentOS in Dedicated Web Hosting

If you decide to obtain one of the dedicated server packages which we offer, you'll be able to pick the CentOS Operating System for your new machine. Since it is very light and fast, you will be able to utilize all of the system resources for your Internet site. CentOS supports all of the 3 hosting Control Panels which we provide - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. In this way, you can use the dedicated server for any purpose - to host all of your personal sites in a single account, to create separate Control Panels for each domain name or even to resell website hosting packages to other people. You may also purchase a server without a Control Panel and set up any custom-made software which you need, in place of the default apps that we install on each machine that is ordered with a Control Panel. If you add the optional Managed Services bundle during the sign-up process or at any later time, we will perform regular CentOS updates besides all the other things which are part of the package.
