What is shared web hosting and is it right for my website?

Understand how shared hosting works, its benefits, and when to upgrade to a higher-tier plan.

What is Shared Web Hosting?

Shared hosting means your website lives on a server alongside hundreds of other websites. All accounts on that server share the same CPU, RAM, and disk resources. It is the most affordable type of hosting.

Who is Shared Hosting Best For?

  • Small business websites and portfolios
  • Blogs with moderate traffic (under 10,000 visitors/month)
  • New websites that are just getting started
  • Static brochure websites with minimal database usage

Limitations to Know

Shared hosting has resource limits. If another site on the server uses excessive CPU or RAM, your site can slow down temporarily. This is called the "noisy neighbour" problem.

When Should I Upgrade?

You should consider upgrading to a Cloud or VPS plan when:

  • Your site receives more than 10,000 visitors per month
  • Your pages take more than 3 seconds to load
  • You need dedicated resources or custom server configurations
