First time website hoster here. I just need a simple, cheap website and I stumbled upon namecheap and their shared hosting/website builder.
As far as I can tell from what I’ve seen they seem good, but is there something I should know about privacy-wise?
Sorry if this post is naive, I’m not really sure where I should be looking.
What are your concerns? Most of the shared hosting providers are not going to be different to each other in terms of general privacy.
They will give what they know to the authorities if you’re doing no-no stuff on their server. Other than that, it depends on how/what you do, not them, mostly. Just check their ToS and Privacy policies.
There’s also something like nja.la
Thanks, I don’t have any major concerns, just checking they aren’t like the Meta of shared hosting or whatever. Njalla is interesting, I might look into them for the sake of supporting something I believe in, not that I ‘need’ an overly private service.
