The website’s terms and conditions—also called “terms of use” or “terms of service”—lay down the ground rules for users visiting your website and serve as a binding agreement between you and the user, or website visitor.
A website’s terms and conditions protect you from legal liability should a dispute arise.
These features are the base offering for the StartUp hosting tier. From there everything goes up— unlimited websites, larger storage, more site visitors, and more features are added for the GrowBig and GoGeek tiers.
Unlimited Websites
Start with 1. Our mid and top tier support UNLIMITED sites.
40 GB Web Space
An ample amount of storage for small to large businesses and all individuals.
~400,000 Visits Monthly
This is an approximate estimate of the maximum number of website visits that can be handled by the hosting plan when all sites you host are properly using our out-of-the-box caching.
Unmetered Traffic
There is no limit on your data transfer, as long as your plan is in line with our fair use guidance.
Free SSL
We manage the security of your sites at server and application level. We offer free Let’s Encrypt SSL that keeps your data safe and daily backups that ensure your peace of mind.
Daily Backup
We automatically save daily backups and keep up to 30 copies of your account. Backup restore is the fastest way to resolve a large number of common website issues. Backup restores are free on all of our shared hosting plans. For an additional layer of security the backups may be stored in a data center located in another city, state or country.
Free CDN
We’ve partnered with Cloudflare to provide a free Content Delivery Network (CDN) service to our customers. The CDN tremendously speeds up your load time for visitors from different geographical locations. In order to speed up the delivery of a page, it caches its content, auto-minifies images, exploits RailGun to speed up uncacheable dynamic content, blocks malicious traffic and even reduces SPAM. The CDN network has 152 locations and is growing so your page will be loaded from the one closest to your visitor!
Enhanced Security
We are proactively protecting your site from malicious code and hack attacks that can affect your traffic and credibility. To do that we maintain a custom WAF (web application firewall) where we constantly add new security rules to stop the emerging application vulnerabilities. We also develop unique solutions such as our AI anti-bot system that effectively blocks millions of security threats every day, the WordPress Security plugin that keeps your application safe, and more!
Free Email
Create professional email addresses with your website domain at no extra cost. You can create as many accounts as you need, access them using a friendly webmail interface, create forwarders and autoresponders, and more.
Ecommerce Enabled
If you are planning on building an online store, we offer free installation of the easiest shopping cart WooCommerce and a free SSL certificate out of the box.
Managed WordPress
All our plans include WordPress installation, the easy and fast WP Starter site-building wizard, managed auto-updates of the core software and plugins, expert WordPress support, and more.
Out-of-the-box Caching
All sites hosted on our servers can take advantage of our unique SuperCacher technology. NGINX-based static and dynamic cache are enabled by default out of the box. Memcached option is also available.
Unlimited Databases
Absolutely no limit.
100% Renewable Energy Match
Our main data center partner – Google Cloud – matches 100% the energy consumed by their global operations with renewable energy and maintains a commitment to carbon neutrality.
Add Collaborators
You can add collaborators to your site who get their own SiteGround Accounts and individual login to the Site Tools of your site and can build or maintain it for you. They can also contact support for your site from their Account.
On-demand Backup Copies
Have peace of mind with any changes you make to your website by creating an instant backup and be able to restore from it if something goes wrong. You can create up to 5 on-demand backups at a time with our GrowBig and GoGeek package or purchase single backups with StartUp.
30% faster PHP
Our unique ultrafast PHP implementation makes your pages load up to 30% faster, cutting the TTFB (time to first byte) and allowing the server to process more of your visits faster.
Staging + Git
Our staging feature is available for WordPress websites. It allows you to create a copy of your live site on a separate, staging environment with a single click. You can test any new code and designs on the staging copy, prior to pushing those changes to the production site. Pushing from staging to live takes only one click and automatically creates a backup of your live site, in case you need to reverse the changes.
White-label Clients
You can register your clients as users in your Account and give them white-label access to the Site Tools of the sites you build for them. When your client logs in the Site Tools of their website, they won’t see SiteGround logo or name anywhere so you can provide white-label hosting service.
Free Private DNS
Using a private DNS allows you to choose a custom domain name for your nameservers, and helps you brand your host server as if you are the owner.
Highest Tier of Resources
The GoGeek plan allows you to use more server resources than any other of our shared hosting plans. This includes more simultaneous connections and processes, more CPU seconds, higher process execution time, and more.
Priority Support
Issues initiated on chat or ticket by our GoGeek users are assigned with priority to our most experienced support agents available. This ensures an exceptional quality and speed of the technical support provided.
