Geek Solutions has bellied up to the bar with a new shared hosting offer.  Welcome!

Geek Solutions is based in Perth, Ontario, Canada.  They are one of those “started in a garage” companies, growing from two chairs and a desk to a small office in Perth.  They do colocation, cloud servers, dedicated servers, and even object storage.  Their object storage actually looks like an interesting deal for those who are serve-heavy as opposed to storage-heavy: $10/mo gets you 1TB of space and 20TB of bandwidth.  They’re also hiring.

But anyway, back to this offer.  You get 5 domains, Softaculous, and 10GB of storage on NVMe served out of New York for $2.50/month for life with coupon 0TL4JEY0YL77.

Personally, I tend to go with smaller, more customer-focused companies for shared hosting, given that it’s usually not the specs that are the most important thing.  I want a team that knows what they’re doing since I’m sharing a server with hundreds or maybe thousands of strangers.  So this kind of small-company offer is the sort that tempts me!

Geek Solutions is a registered business in Canada (as Geekasaurus, a pretty cool company name, company number 12166224). Their Terms of Service can be located here. They currently accept Credit Cards (via Stripe) and PayPal.

Here’s what they had to say: 

“We’re a small team with staff in Perth, ON (our HQ) & Toronto, ON & Vancouver, BC. We strive to provide excellent Service and Support to businesses across the globe.”

Note that their NY shared hosting enjoys free DDoS protection via Cloudflare Magic Transit and Corero.
