What is it?

The hosting service consists of storing and enabling access to a website over the Internet. Without a hosting server, a website cannot be made available on the Internet.

For journal sites based on OJS, it is very important that they are hosted on a stable, fast and secure server, to guarantee full system functioning for all users: authors, reviewers and editors. It is also essential that it has enough space to store the entire volume of files submitted to the system by users.

OJS is the main free software for electronic publishing of scientific journals used in Brazil and around the world. To use it, you just need to have a hosting server to install it and start using it.

And that's exactly what we do: we host your OJS, install the system for free and have it ready for use in just a few hours!

How we work

By hiring the OJS hosting service, your journal account will be created and all access (username and password / sFTP, SSH and database) will be sent to the registration email. We do not have a control panel for managing the hosting account and passwords. You can perform all the necessary configuration on your website's server account, but all management of the hosting account is done by GeniusDesign.

We provide support via chat during business hours and via email / help-desk.
