What to know about shared cPanel hosting
Shared hosting is the most affordable way to put a website online. Here’s how it works and when it’s the right fit.
How shared hosting works
Your site runs on a server alongside other customers’ sites, which keeps the cost low. It’s ideal for brochure sites, portfolios, small business sites and blogs that don’t need dedicated resources.
Why cPanel
cPanel is one of the most widely used hosting control panels. If you’ve worked with hosting before, you’ll feel at home managing files, databases, email and subdomains.
Choosing between plans
Starter and Economy are built for one website. Deluxe and Ultimate let you host 10 or 25 sites and add AutoSSL, which keeps certificates issued and renewed for every site automatically. If you cancel the plan, the associated certificates are removed.
Know when to upgrade
If pages slow down during busy periods, or you’re running a store or many client sites, Web Hosting Plus gives you dedicated CPU and RAM with the same cPanel experience. Need full root access? Choose a VPS.
