When selecting a web hosting service in Singapore, the stability of a company’s management has become increasingly important. This shift in focus is due to the recent surge in mergers and acquisitions within Singapore’s web hosting sector. For instance, following the acquisition of Vodien in 2017, its Google Reviews rating fell from 5.0 to approximately 4.3 ( February 20, 2024). Therefore, it is crucial to prioritize companies that maintain consistent leadership.
