Overview

What is Kapsi?

Kapsi is unique in the Finnish market as a non-profit Internet Users' Association.

For a small annual membership fee, members get access to shell accounts, web hosting, and email. While not a commercial host in the traditional sense, Kapsi is a cornerstone of the Finnish internet culture, hosting thousands of personal pages and hobby sites. It is maintained by volunteers and represents the communal spirit of the early web.

Coefficient Applied

This hosting provider's website did not return full HTML content due to bot protection. HTML size was measured as 10KB (under 100KB). Since reliable "Time to 1MB" data could not be obtained, a +269ms coefficient was applied to maintain ranking fairness.

Coefficient Calculation Formula
penalty = (100 - 10) × 2 + 100 (block page) = +269ms
