  • So, what happens after the 10 GB data transfer is used up?

    Is this a (potentially) hidden fee?

    • There are no hidden fee's however if you hit the limit your website will be automatically suspended until your quota resets (done on a calendar month, you will be notified) or you can upgrade to a paid account.

  • In most cases as with shared hosting if that is what is offered, the speed of the website being processed to visitors would be limited. (slowed down)

    • They say: "All our paid plans are housed on enterprise equipment and optimised for speed and reliability".

      So it seems like a lot of effort to try to move one of my .com.au Wordpress websites from Dreamhost, because it won't even be on enterprise equipment or optimised. Could it save more than 300ms loadtime?

      • Our free servers are still enterprise grade, but what you probably care about more is that all our servers are based in Sydney, Australia. Where as I believe Dreamhost are in the US and you'd be loading from one of their servers from the US.

        @twocsies, how much are you paying for DH, if you don't me asking.

        • +1

          I think it's around $89 per year.

        • Ta!

  • How long is the free hosting for? 1 year? 2 years? A lifetime?

    • Hi, there is no time limit on free hosting. You're able to upgrade your plan as desired.

    I am planning to get a website that will get very limited hits. mainly for information about opening times etc.

    I will also want the website to get emails.

    Any comments in term of website design using this website host? Any limitations with a web designer using this host? Will I be able to use it as my email server?

    • Our free account comes with 5 email addresses so this shouldn't be an issue. Note though that emails also count to your storage and bandwidth quota.

      • How do you setup these 5 email address?

        • Once you've signed up and your account is approved you can setup and manage these from the control panel is provided.

  • We would still need to buy a domain name?

    • You will need a domain name to use our web hosting, but you have the option to use an existing one and just point it to our servers, or purchase a new one.

  • Do you offer free subdomains i.e. whatever.switchhost.com.au or whatever domain? as part of the hosting or does one have to buy a domain name as well?

    • With the free package you don't get any add-on domains, you can bring your own, or upgrade for add on's.

  • Awesome, thanks.

    Just registered , Will post a review here in few days. Thanks

  • what are your nameservers btw ?

    • Hi Namz, our nameservers are ns1.switchhost.com.au and ns2.switchhost.com.au

  • Switchhost, I see that even if I choose update my own nameservers with my chosen domain name, your form still insists on starting the domain with www. Why this requirement?

    • +1

      The www. in the order form is only for example purposes. If you're updating your name servers you will need to enter the domain in the format of "domainname" . "com.au"
