And if you are planning to use PHP (ie. for WordPress, Joomla, etc.), we have two advanced hosting plans to choose from: Doteasy Ultra Hosting and Doteasy Unlimited Hosting. These plans both offer complementary unique IP addresses which can significantly reduce the chances of websites being blocked by Internet Service Providers.
