Web Hosting

In basic terms, web hosting is where your website actually lives. Or to get slightly more fancy about it: a website is a collection of files that exist on a server connected to the internet and accessible to be viewed via a web browser. When someone visits the given domain, these website files are displayed within the web browser as the actual website. When you combine the website files with the hosting server and a properly-pointed domain, you have all the ingredients necessary for a website to be visible online. And that, in a nutshell, is web hosting.

It basically works like this: if you intend to conduct eCommerce on your website, accepting credit cards and selling goods or services, then you need the Business plan. If you don't need to host many domains, but do intend to host more than one domain, then the Professional plan should be perfect for you. If your intention is to host a single domain, then the Starter plan should meet your needs. All plans include eCommerce functionality and optimized for WordPress.

We make it very easy to transfer your existing website files, and even your existing domain registration(s), to us. To prevent any downtime on a live website, the correct order of operations is: create new account with us, transfer a copy of your website files to the new server, update the DNS of any domain(s) to point to the new server, wait 24 hours and verify everything loads from the new server, cancel old hosting account, initiate domain registration transfer, verify the domain registration transfer completed successfully. This may sounds daunting to you, that's why we will help you free of charge with every step.

Yes, you can upgrade the plan anytime by paying the difference. You can either contact our support or directly place the upgrade order from within the client area.
