2. Plesk Obsidian & Chroot Isolation Architecture
Unlike conventional shared hosting, Netcup web hosting integrates the industrial-grade Plesk Obsidian control platform:
🛡️ Chroot Filesystem Sandbox Isolation
Each customer account runs within an isolated chroot jail. Even if a neighboring website is compromised, directory traversal into your files is strictly blocked.
🚀 WordPress Toolkit Automation
One-click security hardening, vulnerability scanning, automated plugin updates, database optimization, and zero-downtime 1-click staging.
3. Web Hosting Showdown: Netcup vs Competitors
| Provider & Plan | Price/mo | Storage | Included Domains | Panel | PHP Memory Limit |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Netcup (Webhosting 2000) | €3.39/mo | 150 GB SSD | 3 Free Domains (.de/.com) | Plesk Obsidian Pro | 512 MB |
| Hostinger (Premium) | €2.99/mo (Renews €6.99) | 100 GB SSD | 1 Free Domain (1st yr only) | hPanel (Proprietary) | 256 MB |
| Hetzner (Level 4) | €4.90/mo | 30 GB SSD | 1 Free .de Domain | konsoleH (Outdated UI) | 256 MB |
4. Inklusivdomains Value Proposition
💰 Effective Cost Value of Included Domains:
In Webhosting 2000 (€3.39/mo), 3 top-level domains (.de, .com, .eu) are bundled for free throughout your subscription. Registering 3 .com domains separately elsewhere costs roughly €40/yr, effectively making the 150 GB SSD storage, Plesk panel, and 512M PHP memory environment essentially free.
5. Pros, Cons & Buyer Guide
- Full commercial Plesk Obsidian license included without licensing fees.
- Included domains renew free for the entire lifetime of your contract.
- Free automated Let’s Encrypt wildcard SSL certificate provisioning.
- Managed shared hosting does not support custom Docker containers (use VPS or Root Server).
- Entry-level Webhosting 1000 lacks SSH shell access (start with 2000+ for SSH).
6. Webhosting FAQ
Q:Do the inclusive free domains remain completely free upon annual renewal?
Yes! Unlike competitors that only waive the initial year fee before imposing $15-$20 renewal charges, Netcup bundles lifetime free domain renewals. As long as your hosting subscription remains active, all bundled domains renew at €0.00.
Q:Is shell SSH access and WP-CLI enabled on Netcup Webhosting plans?
Starting from Webhosting 2000 and above, secure shell (SSH) access is included out of the box, equipped with WP-CLI, Composer, and Git deployment webhooks.
Q:Which tier is required to host Node.js, Python, or Ruby applications?
Select Webhosting 4000 or 8000. These plans activate official Plesk application runtime extensions for Node.js, Ruby, and Python via Phusion Passenger.
