See everything in Shared hosting

Hosting that picks up the phone

Most hosts compete on price. We compete on what happens when something goes wrong at 2 a.m.

30 days to change your mind

Try any shared hosting plan. If it isn't right, cancel within 30 days for a full refund. No forms, no arguments.

Backed up every single day

Deleted the wrong file? Got hacked? JetBackup keeps daily copies, and you can restore a file, a database or the whole site yourself from cPanel.

Engineers, not scripts

The person answering your ticket can log into the server and fix it. In Sinhala or English, day or night.

Pay in rupees, your way

Card through PayHere, online transfer or bank deposit. No dollar pricing and no exchange-rate surprises on renewal.

Questions people ask

How much does web hosting cost in Sri Lanka?

At DataCenter.lk, cPanel shared hosting costs Rs. 3,500 a year for one website (Starter) or Rs. 7,000 a year for three (Premium). WordPress hosting starts at Rs. 10,000 a year and a Linux VPS at Rs. 5,000 a month. A .lk domain is Rs. 3,750 a year and a .com.lk Rs. 1,000. Shared and WordPress plans include free SSL and daily backups, and every price is in rupees.

How do I choose a web host in Sri Lanka?

Check five things before you pay: prices in rupees on a local invoice, where the servers are, how often backups run, how long the money-back period is, and whether support answers in Sinhala or English at any hour. DataCenter.lk bills in rupees, runs daily backups, gives 30 days to cancel shared hosting for a full refund, and answers 24/7 in Sinhala and English.

What is web hosting, in plain words?

It's a computer that never switches off, where your website, databases and email live so anyone can reach them. We set them up, secure them and look after them for you. Everything you store on them stays yours.

Which plan should I start with?

Most small business websites fit in Starter or Premium shared hosting. If you use WordPress or WooCommerce, choose WordPress hosting. Pick a VPS when you need to install your own software. If you're unsure, call us and we'll recommend the smallest plan that works.

Can you move my website from another host?

Yes. We move your files, databases and email for free, test everything, and only then tell you to switch your domain. We plan the switch so your site stays online throughout.

Can I upgrade later?

Yes, from your client area at any time. Upgrades don't take your site offline, and you only pay the difference.

How do I pay?

Visa, Mastercard or Amex, LankaQR or a mobile wallet through PayHere, online bank transfer or bank deposit. Your invoice shows every option.

Where are your servers?

In data centres in Singapore, the USA and Europe. Singapore is the closest major hub to Sri Lanka, so most local websites go there. You choose the location when you order.

Do you give discounts for longer terms?

Yes. Pay for 2 years of hosting and save 10%, or 3 years and save 15%. Choose the term at checkout.

Do I need a .lk domain to host with you?

No. You can host any domain with us: a .lk, a .com or any other, including one registered with another company. Point it to our nameservers, or let us transfer it for you.
