Who hosts in Islamabad
Why put a server in Pakistan?
Users in Pakistan are fastest to a server in Pakistan. Islamabad has a physics floor of 11 ms to Karachi, and for local ecommerce, Urdu-language sites and testing what users there see, nothing else on our list comes close.
Know the risk first. Pakistan has regular internet shutdowns, so treat Islamabad as the local copy and keep a second server or a backup in another of our countries. Hourly billing makes a standby cheap.
Pakistan has no comprehensive personal data protection law yet; a bill has been in draft since at least 2018. The main cyber law is the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act 2016 (PECA). The Pakistan Internet Exchange lists 9 networks.

The fastest a round trip from Islamabad could ever be: light in fibre covers about 200 km per millisecond, over the straight-line distance. Real routes are longer and add equipment, so expect more. We only suggest another location when it saves at least 10 ms, and some neighbouring countries don’t connect directly, so a closer location can still be slower. Hourly billing makes it cheap to test both.

Pakistan questions
Before you pick Islamabad.
Is Islamabad fast for Karachi?
Yes: the physics floor is 11 ms. Every other location we offer is much further away.
Can I serve India or the Gulf from Islamabad?
On a map it is close: 16 ms to Mumbai and 20 ms to Dubai. Real routes between neighbouring countries can run much longer, so measure first; Singapore (39 ms to Mumbai) is the safer pick for India.
Which law applies to a server in Pakistan?
There is no comprehensive data protection law yet; a bill has been in draft since at least 2018. The main cyber law is the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act 2016 (PECA).
What if the internet in Pakistan is switched off?
Users may not be able to reach your server while it lasts. Keep a second server or a backup in another of our countries: same price, usually ready within 15 minutes.
Does a server here cost more than in other countries?
No. Every plan costs the same in all 15 of our countries, with the same traffic allowance, billed by the hour and never more than the monthly price.
