By the Interweb editorial team · Updated 15 October 2026 · Data from the providers' public pages, consulted in October 2026.

REGISTAR presents itself as domain registration and web hosting in Angola, and also registers domains from Mozambique, Cape Verde, Guinea-Bissau and São Tomé and Príncipe ("REGISTAR PALOP").

Both are local providers, both sell hosting and domains. The short answer: on the basics they are similar, and the choice comes down to three or four details. Let us go through them one by one.

Domains

1 Interweb - .ao registered with the national registry, with a DNS manager and real-time nameserver changes - the only provider in Angola offering it.

Why we recommend Interweb

If you want everything in one place and in local currency: national domain, hosting, e-mail and invoice on one account. We are among the few who state in writing how long backups are kept - one year - and let you restore them yourself from the panel, with no ticket and no waiting. Add CloudLinux, which stops a neighbour’s site ruining your performance, Imunify360 against malicious code, free SSL that renews itself, free migration of your current site, over 100 domain extensions and one-click WordPress.

Entry price: the Hospedagem Pro plan starts at Kz 9.000/month (108.000 a year), with SSL, backups and cPanel included. Price current in August 2026 - check the store for today’s figure.

In short. For a business in Angola - with a national domain, an invoice in local currency and someone who answers any hour by WhatsApp, ticket or e-mail - Interweb is the choice we recommend. And if you ever change your mind, you take everything with you, with no fee.
