What is shared web hosting?
Shared web hosting is a hosting service where multiple websites use resources on the same server. It is a practical starting point for personal websites, business websites, blogs, portfolios, and smaller ecommerce or lead-generation sites because it keeps cost lower while still providing the core tools needed to launch online.
Should I choose Linux or Windows hosting?
Choose Linux hosting for WordPress, PHP, MySQL, cPanel, and open-source website stacks. Choose Windows hosting when your website or application needs ASP.NET, MSSQL, Plesk, or a Microsoft-friendly environment. If you are unsure, InterProWebHost can help match the platform to your site.
How do the plans, billing terms, and savings work?
Linux cPanel Business and Pro, plus Windows Plesk Business and Pro, are available with 3-, 12-, 24-, and 36-month billing. Windows Personal is available with 12-, 24-, and 36-month billing. Eligible 12-, 24-, and 36-month initial orders include one eligible domain registration or transfer free for the first year; 3-month orders do not. The domain renews at the normal price after the first year. The configurator shows the effective monthly rate, due-today total, renewal amount, and longer-term savings before checkout.
Does hosting include SSL?
Standard SSL is included with the listed Linux and Windows plans. Sites that need stronger identity validation, warranty coverage, or protection for additional domains can compare our SSL certificates.
Can InterProWebHost help migrate my website?
Yes. Eligible annual plans include unlimited free website migrations requested during the first 90 days. Each website must fit the destination plan and pass compatibility, access, security, and scope review. Website files, databases, DNS guidance, SSL configuration, and basic testing may be included; mailbox migration and other excluded work require separate assessment. Review the Migration Policy.
Does web hosting include email accounts?
Mailbox availability depends on the selected hosting plan. For a dedicated professional mailbox experience, compare Titan Business Email, Google Workspace, and OX App Suite.
Are website backups included with shared hosting?
Hosting disaster-recovery backups are not a substitute for your own current, independently stored backup. Where available, a recent restore may be requested subject to the applicable service terms and fee. For scheduled website copies and restore tooling, compare Website Backup.
What does unmetered storage or bandwidth mean?
Unmetered means you are not charged according to the amount of storage or bandwidth used; it does not mean unlimited resources. Usage must support the normal operation of a personal or small-business website and comply with the selected plan, the Terms of Service, and the Acceptable Usage Policy. Shared or multi-tenant hosting use of 25% or more of system resources for longer than 90 seconds is considered excessive.
When should I move from shared hosting to VPS or managed WordPress hosting?
Move beyond shared hosting when you need dedicated resources, stronger isolation, custom server control, more predictable performance, or hands-on WordPress maintenance. Compare Managed WordPress Hosting, NVMe VPS Hosting, Cloud Hosting, or Dedicated Servers according to the workload.
