How to Choose the Right Web Hosting Plan for Your Business

Picking a hosting plan comes down to two things: what your website does, and how much email your team keeps. Here’s how our plans match up to the most common small business setups.

Only need email?

If your website lives somewhere else, or you don’t have one, Email hosting gives you mailboxes at your own domain without paying for web space. Email Basic allows up to 10 mailboxes, Plus up to 50 and Pro up to 100, with storage shared by all of them.

A first website or a small business site

Start on Shared hosting. Basic suits a simple website and a few mailboxes. Plus and Pro add more space, mailboxes and databases as your site and team grow.

WordPress with many plugins, or an online shop

Choose Power hosting. It has the same storage and mailboxes as the matching Shared plan, with more processing power: 2 CPUs instead of 1 on Basic and Plus, and 3 instead of 2 on Pro. If your site feels slow on Shared, this is the plan to try.

A team that keeps a lot of email

Business hosting starts at 20GB of storage and up to 50 mailboxes, and goes up to 100GB and 500 mailboxes. Choose it when your team keeps years of mail, or your website holds a lot of files.

What every web hosting plan includes

Shared, Power and Business plans all come with the Plesk control panel, WordPress Toolkit, free SSL certificates, weekly backups, spam and virus filtering and unmetered traffic. Every plan carries our 99.9% uptime guarantee and 60-day money back guarantee, with no term contracts.

Still not sure?

Start smaller. You can move up a plan when you need to, and that beats paying for space you don’t use. If you’re coming from another host, we move your website and email for you at no charge.* See Shared hosting plans.

* Free website & email migration: We need access to your existing working website files and database (where used). Email migration requires access to working IMAP mailboxes.
