Powerful eCommerce Hosting

Free WordPress Migrator

For clients migrating WordPress sites, we have made it easy to do it yourself. All you need to do is install our WordPress Migrator plugin and generate a token that initiates the migration to your SiteGround hosting account. You can migrate as many installations as you like hassle-free.

Free Shopping Cart Installation

With our click-and-install wizard, you can choose your preferred shopping cart software and have it automatically installed on your account. Your fully-functional online store will be ready in minutes!

Daily Backups

Online stores get new content more frequently than other types of websites due to the regular influx of orders, products and clients. That is why having a reliable backup to restore data from is of utmost importance and we offer a daily backup service for free.

Our hosting platform is flexible and optimized to support a large number of PHP & MySQL-based applications. Whether it is a CMS, a CRM, a forum, a wiki or else, we run it and offer installation of the most popular ones such as WordPress, Drupal, Joomla and more.

Site speed can greatly influence both your search engine visibility and your website’s conversion rates. That’s why we quickly adopt new technologies and develop in-house such that make sites run faster!

• Ultrafast PHP available for up to 30% faster sites
• SuperCacher: NGINX direct delivery of static resources, dynamic cache switched on for all by default, Memcache option.
• Free CDN option for all sites

Custom WAF

We maintain a WAF (Web Application Firewall) for which we constantly write new security rules. Each year we add hundreds of custom rules that stop various identified-yet-unresolved application vulnerabilities.

SSL Included

We were one of the first hosts to give free SSL to every site and we are one of the organizations that backup financially the Let’s Encrypt SSL project, as we deeply believe in making the Internet a safer place for everyone.

Easy Start And Automated Updates

Each of our plans includes free custom-built WordPress Starter and Migrator plugins to help you create or migrate a functional site hassle-free. We also take care of the security and software updates of the WordPress instances of our customers.

User-friendly Client Area

In our Client Area, you have a convenient access to all important tools and services for your sites, hosting accounts, and domains: setup site wizard, shortcuts to the sites’ Site Tools, billing settings, login and profile management, access to support and more.

Intuitive Site Tools

Our powerful and intuitive Site Tools allow you to upload files to the server, create databases and emails, park domains and manage DNS zones, and more.

Create unlimited email accounts

Create professional email addresses with your website domain at no extra cost. You can create as many accounts as you need and easily give access to individual accounts to your employees, team or else.

Create forwarders and autoresponders

When using your email for business, it’s essential to have the options to set autoresponders and forwarders. You can do that from Site Tools >Email section and from the webmail app.

We have developed a custom PHP implementation that significantly cuts the TTFB (time to first byte) and makes your pages load 30% faster on average. This special PHP setup has lower memory usage and allows the server to process a bigger number of queries faster. People on GrowBig and higher plans can take advantage of the benefits of our unique and faster PHP implementation.

Many of our customers maintain WordPress sites that require updates and changes as their businesses grow. However, big changes can be risky and it’s a good practice to test any major change in a safe environment that won’t affect your live site. We’ve developed a tool that creates a copy of your site, allows you to work on the testing site, and then push the changes to your live site with confidence - in one click! Just to be on the safe side, we also perform automatic backups each time you upload a staging version to production. The tool is available on the GrowBig and GoGeek plans.

Collaborators can be added to any site hosted on any of our hosting plans. People added as collaborators receive their own access to the Site Tools of the website they help building and/or maintaining. They also have their own Client area and can contact our support team if this is needed as part of the site maintenance.

On GoGeek plan 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.
