Heteml is a high-performance shared hosting service by GMO Pepabo, designed for users who prioritize performance and flexibility. It features a fully SSD-based infrastructure and a separated server architecture (web, mail, DB) for improved stability and speed.

The platform supports automatic WordPress installation, several versions of PHP with OPcache, MySQL, and offers SSH and Git access for developers.

A built-in Web Application Firewall (WAF) and optional device-level protections (via F-Secure) provide strong baseline security. Migration support is available for those moving existing WordPress sites.

Heteml also offers automatic daily backups, a dedicated control panel in Japanese, and free telephone support on weekdays. While priced above entry-level hosts, it delivers value through performance, scalability, and local customer support.
