Hong Kong dedicated servers coming soon

August 26th, 2009 admin

Due to popular demand, we will be launching a new offering of dedicated servers in Hong Kong datacenters very soon. As for China, those servers will be unmanaged but with competitive pricing and good value as compared to existing competition. Both Linux and Windows would be available as OS. The main advantage over current China servers would be that no ICP license filling would be required, while the access speed would be comparable to mainland servers when accessed from China. Keep posted for details.

New website is up!

April 11th, 2009 admin

We are proud to announce the launch of our newly redesigned website www.sinohosting.net ; it is an improvement from the previous design, and has been conceived with usability in mind, to ensure easy navigation by users and visitors.

Major changes includes:
-Updates to our VPS and China hosting plans. China plans now include free domain name and ICP license registration. Number of plans have been reduced from 5 to 3 and match in terms of disk space our international plans. Old clients are not affected though they can continue on their current plans and renew at same prices.
-Introduction of dedicated server plans. We used to offer dedicated server on a custom order basis only, but now we have four different server solutions available for clients to choose.
-China server colocation and hosted exchange email solutions have also been added to our offerings.
-We have revamped our online support system, clients and prospects will now be able to open support tickets directly from our website which will yield faster response times than our support email.

We have also added new domain extensions (.eu, .me etc.), web design services, etc. More will be announced in the next few days, including our affiliate program, the first of its kind among web hosts in China, and for which you can already sign up. Make sure to check back for more details in the next few days. For now, you can go to www.sinohosting.net to see by yourself.
