OVHcloud launches managed Web Hosting offers in Australia

OVHcloud is responding to Australia’s rapidly growing digital economy by introducing a new all-in-one web hosting and domain names solution, to further its commitment to partners and resellers competing in the web hosting market. In addition to its extensive portfolio of solutions, OVHcloud offers small and medium tech businesses, regional web hosting service providers, and web and digital agencies a comprehensive suite of solutions with the best price-performance ratio to give them an edge in small and medium enterprise (SME) markets.

OVHcloud’s decision to provide its web hosting and domain name offerings in Asia Pacific to resellers and partners comes at a time where businesses are looking to accelerate or kickstart their digital presence upon witnessing the digital economy’s massive potential in the digital-first world. Economic studies show potentially substantial dividends from embracing digital technologies adding as much as A$66 billion to the Australian economy by 2020. It has also been predicted that by 2021, digital transformation initiatives will contribute more than US$1 trillion to Asia Pacific’s GDP with 60 per cent of the region’s GDP coming from digital products or services. Beyond Asia Pacific, the web hosting and domain name offerings are also available in Europe, Latin America and Canada, enabling OVHcloud to support international scaling and development.

They also benefit from OVHcloud's security expertise to safeguard their digital identity and protect against fraudulent transfers.
