- INR Pricing Revision for our India Program: Owing to the increase in the United States Dollar value against the Indian Rupee, we were compelled to revise our product pricing for our India program. This price hike went effective on September 12, 2018. More details here
Web Products
- Free SSL Certificates: Starting July 2018, Google Chrome 68 started flagging websites that do not encrypt traffic as “Not Secure” in the address bar. Since this was sure to have a significant impact on websites that were not equipped with an SSL certificate, we provided free SSL for your customers’ Cloud and Windows Hosting packages.

- Launched Linux Dedicated Server India: To make the most of the ever-booming Indian market, we added a new server location to the portfolio of our Dedicated Linux Server – India. If you wish to view our plans and pricing, click here

- Deprecation of old KVM VPS India plans: With the launch of the new and improved KVM VPS plans for the US & India servers, we deprecated the old KVM VPS plans on India servers only. This was done to ensure that there is no duplication of plans on the platform. More details here
- Introducing reCAPTCHA on SuperSite: As a security measure, we made changes to the SuperSite by introducing reCAPTCHA on two key pages – the WHOIS Lookup page and the Contact Support page. Apart from identifying if the website visitor is human, it also helps in preventing spam and abuse on your website. More details here
EVENTS
- APTLD74 | Uzbekistan: We attended the APTLD 2018 conference in the city of Tashkent, Republic of Uzbekistan and it was a great mix of interesting conversations, high-level networking, and fun evenings. Known for being the foremost ccTLD-centric event in the Asia-Pacific region, APTLD proved to be the perfect setting to take existing conversations forward, and initiate some new ones with noteworthy players from the Domain Name industry.
