BlueSteam Reviews

BlueSteam is a privately owned South African web hosting company founded in 2005. Initially focusing solely on providing affordable web hosting services to South African citizens, the company has since expanded its offerings significantly. BlueSteam's headquarters are located in Cape Town, South Africa. Their core services include shared web hosting with servers located in both South Africa and the European Union, catering primarily to the local South African market but allowing for international reach. They provide SSD storage, unlimited bandwidth on most plans, unlimited email accounts, and MySQL databases. Beyond basic hosting, BlueSteam offers domain registration and transfer, SSL certificates, spam protection (SpamExperts), and Weebly website builder plans. They also provide website design and development services for clients who prefer a managed solution. A key feature is the inclusion of the Softaculous installer, offering easy installation of numerous applications like WordPress, Joomla, and Magento. They emphasize reliable server performance, a 99.9% uptime guarantee, and strong customer support available via phone, WhatsApp, and email ticketing system. While they don't offer VPS or dedicated servers, they target individuals and small to medium-sized businesses needing reliable and competitively priced shared hosting solutions, particularly within South Africa.
