HawkHost.com Thumbnail

Background

Business Name: Hawk Host Inc.

Year of foundation: 2004

Location: Fergus, Ontario, Canada

BBB Accreditation: Yes

Market Size: > 40K websites (#26 in HRank list)

Growth Status: (by websites quantity): Increasing

HawkHost dates back to 2004 and back then it was named differently. It became known as HawkHost in 2008; however, the company has got a long history of web hosting services and as well as valuable experience.


Offers and Pricing

Shared Hosting Plans
Name Domains Disk Bandwidth Min Price Billing Term
Primary Unlim 10 Gb Unlim $2.99 24 Mo
Professional Unlim Unlim Unlim $7.99 24 Mo

At the moment they have two shared plans: Primary and Professional.

They can be purchased monthly, annually and biannually. The cheapest option is a biannual, prices can be seen in the table above. Monthly prices are $4.99/mo for a Primary plan and $9.99/mo for a Professional plan.

HawkHost.com also offers:

  • Reseller / Cloud and VPS hosting plans,
  • Domain name registration and transfer,
  • SSL certificates and much more.

It is a reputable hosting organization that offers plans perfectly suitable for small businesses. Although they offer various hostings, as it has been mentioned, they specialize in shared hosting in the first place. The company offers a variety of features and they are decently priced.


Support

Instant Technical Live Support: No

They have gained a reputation for automated hosting services that know how to fix themselves without the need to be fixed manually.

This does not mean that their support team is deficient; quite the opposite. A contact form, emails, and a ticket system are, only live chat is absent, unfortunately.


HawkHost Summary Analysis by HRank

As of our observations, this hosting provider didn’t have a good HRank rating: 4.2 and the 143d position on our list for the 2018 year, 6.9 HRank and 75th position and average uptime 99.944% in the 2019 year.

The Uptime for the 2018 year looks not fine – just 99.698%. In 2019 was better – 99.944%. In the 2019 year was just one big fail – 96,997%.

HawkHost’s response time from their shared IPs was not the fastest – around 1,000ms.

However, we’ve seen worse results. And this didn’t seem to be a problem with the number of customers (domains), their quantity didn’t change.

HawkHost is not bad, but we have the better providers from TOP20.
