Web hosting on greek servers

If you are not satisfied with your current hosting provider, Pointer can undertake the transfer of your site to our servers for free and with a bonus gift of up to six months hosting!

If you have less than six months of hosting left with your previous provider and you select Pointer for the hosting of your site, we will add those months to your annual package, without any extra charge.

Transfer from Pointer's technician

To commence hosting transfer, email us your request at support@pointer.gr within seven days from the date on which you order the new hosting package with Pointer

• Free site transfer applies to those clients who have ordered any annual hosting package, except free and basic hosting packages
• To qualify for free hosting, you have to prove that the rest of the remainder of the duration of your hosting package with the previous company is up to six months.

Transfer without Pointer's technician

• Order your new package from Pointer's state-of-the-art order system.
• You will be sent an email by Pointer, containing the details of your purchased package (ftp passwords, Plesk or Cpanel access codes for hosting, domain name servers).
• Change the name servers in your domain through your registrar's control panel. After the change of the name servers, it takes approximately 24 hours to update your providers (OTEnet, Forthnet, Hol etc) so it would be wise not to interrupt hosting with your previous hosting provider, so that your site doesn't stop running.
• Once you change the name servers, it would be wise to adjust the email settings on Plesk or Cpanel (if you want to adjust the email settings  with the email codes and passwords you previously had, you don't have to adjust the settings on the email client you are using-Outlook etc-).
• Upload the site files, using the ftp codes/passwords we have sent you, or through the Plesk panel for which you have received access codes/passwords. The files will be uploaded on the httpdocs folder

For the payment of any service you purchase from Pointer, the use of a credit card is not prerequisite. You can also pay by bank deposit, Paypal, or Paysafecard. You can see all our payment methods at https://www.pointer.gr/en/pay

There is a 60-day money back guarantee, which means you can try our offered hosting service and if you are still unhappy for any reason at all, we will refund the money you paid for any and all hosting package orders.

If you pay by credit card, Paypal or Paysafecard, your package is instantly activated and you are emailed the hosting control panel and the ftp access codes/passwords

In the event you pay by bank deposit, then the package is activated after we view your deposit or upon your notification thereof

Our servers can be found in a Greek cloud datacenter, in the OTE network, therefore we can provide Greek hosting.

This enables maximum speed (up to 5 times greater) and excellent network uptime.

The design of the datacenter has been done using the latest international standards and the equipment is enterprise HP class, with full high availability (HA), at all levels, providing incomparable performance, guaranteed stability and 100% uptime.

The datacenter-OTE interaction is conducted via a private circuit of 2N optical fibers.

The geographical location of the datacenter, coupled with the excellent equipment and material infrastructure of OTE, ensures the ideal connectivity between the center of NE Europe and Greece and the rest of the world.
