Still have a question?
01What does offshore hosting mean?
Offshore hosting means your website, VPS or server runs in a data center outside your home country. With LyraHosting that is the Netherlands. We operate under a privacy-first offshore jurisdiction, and our Acceptable Use Policy applies to your content.
02Can I host anything with offshore hosting?
No. Offshore hosting is a choice of jurisdiction, not a way around the law. Your content must be legal and must follow our Acceptable Use Policy.
03Is LyraHosting DMCA ignored?
Yes, for US DMCA notices: we don’t process them, because the DMCA is a US law and we operate under a privacy-first jurisdiction. Copyright and other complaints go through the procedure in our Acceptable Use Policy and are assessed under it, so your content must be legal and follow that policy.
04Which offshore hosting company is the best?
The one whose jurisdiction, policies and infrastructure fit your project. Compare where the servers are, how DMCA and abuse complaints are handled, whether ID is required, whether DDoS protection is included and which payment methods you can use. At LyraHosting: servers in the Netherlands, no US DMCA processing, no ID for private customers, anti-DDoS on every plan and 50+ cryptocurrencies.
05Where are your servers located?
Our servers are in three data centers in the Netherlands, and we operate under a privacy-first offshore jurisdiction. You can check the network from our data center page with a test IP, test files and a looking glass.
06Do I need to verify my identity?
Private customers don’t need to complete ID verification. Registered businesses go through a Know Your Business (KYB) check. Our Acceptable Use Policy applies to every customer and service.
07Which payment methods do you accept?
We accept cryptocurrency through three payment gateways covering more than 50 coins, including Bitcoin and Monero. You can also pay with PayPal, credit and debit cards, bank transfer, UnionPay, Alipay and PIX.
08Is DDoS protection included?
Yes. Every LyraHosting service includes standard transit anti-DDoS protection. On top of that, LyraShield DDoS protection adds Layer 7 filtering with a web application firewall and, on Premium, Layer 3/4 protection.
09What is an offshore VPS?
An offshore VPS is a virtual private server hosted in a country outside your home jurisdiction. You get your own virtual machine with root access, while CPU and RAM are shared on the host server. See our offshore Linux VPS, Windows VPS and Forex VPS plans, or a hybrid server for dedicated CPU and RAM.
10How quickly is my service activated?
Web hosting, VPS and hybrid servers are activated instantly after your order is processed. Dedicated servers are usually ready within a few hours and within 24 hours at most, custom builds included.
11Why is there free hosting but no free offshore hosting?
Free hosts usually pay for themselves by placing ads on your site or by limiting what you can publish. Offshore hosting is built around privacy and content freedom, so it is funded by your plan instead of by ads or data.
