Compare hosting FAQs
Which hosting plan is right for me?
For most small business websites, our web hosting is the best value. Choose WordPress hosting for WordPress sites, or managed cloud and VPS for larger, resource-heavy projects. Can I upgrade my plan later?
Yes. You can upgrade at any time as your website grows, so it is easy to start small and scale up. Is there a contract or lock-in?
No. Our plans have no long contract, so you can change or cancel when it suits you. What is the difference between web hosting and cloud hosting?
Web hosting suits most websites at the best price. Managed cloud hosting gives you dedicated, scalable resources for busier or business-critical sites.
