Founder of the top WP educational site wpbeginner.com
“SiteGround is a great hosting solution for all your WordPress projects - both new and established ones. The service they provide is stable, secure and super fast thanks to the special tools they've developed in-house for WordPress users.”
Joost de Valk
Founder of yoast.com plugin, powering 5+ million sites.
“We keep track of which hosts we get a lot of support requests for, so we can reach out to them. We had a hard time finding SiteGround in that list as we had so few complaints from customers hosted with them.”
Jenny Wong
A leading WP core contributor and organizer of WordCamps.
“What I like about SiteGround is the support is super friendly and attentive. I also love how easy it is that I work on my site locally, push to GitHub and it just magically appears on the server. I really appreciate not having to think about the site and the upgrades too.”
Andrey Savchenko
A leading WP core contributor and organizer of WordCamps.
“I am passionate about web performance. It takes a hosting committed to performance to match that passion. SG Optimizer delivers powerful cache for WordPress data, assets, and pages with a flip of a switch. Even on the shared plans!”
Matt Cromwell
A WordPress developer and Partner and COO at Impress.org.
“I can't say enough good things about SiteGround. I highly recommend their GoGeek shared hosting platform if you are a developer on a budget but still want advanced features like staging, GitHub integration, and of course the SuperCacher.”
Monique Dubbleman
A UX designer and active member of the Dutch WP community.
“I moved all my client’s WordPress websites to SiteGround hosting a few years ago and it was the best decision I ever made. I can now easily add new clients, new websites, SSL certificates and other features from one dashboard.“
Rian Kinney
Intellectual property attorney and founder at Kinney firm.
“I have been a happy customer of SiteGround for 2 years now. From their easy to use migrator tool that quickly transferred domains from another platform, to their automatic WP updates that assist with maintaining the functionality of my sites, they have made hosting easy for someone with a non-technical background.”
Rian Rietveld
Contributor to the WP Accessibility team and Consultant at Level Level.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is cloud hosting?
Cloud hosting is one of the three most common types of hosting. It is best described as a group of servers, which share their CPU, RAM, and space to make one big pool of resources, which is then virtually shared among multiple sites and users. Hosting on the cloud is particularly great for its redundancy. Even if one or some of the servers fail for whatever reason, the rest of the machines will keep servicing the websites hosted on the cloud.
What is the difference between cloud and hosting?
The biggest difference between cloud hosting and shared hosting is in the number of servers and the way you get resources allocated. On the shared hosting you get a single server and all sites hosted on it share its resources, but since there is no limit on their usage, any of those sites may take all the machine’s CPU and RAM for its own benefit and at the disadvantage of the rest. On the cloud you get hosted on a pool of servers, which improves the redundancy of the service, and their shared resources get virtually partitioned so that your site gets a dedicated amount, which no one else can abuse.
Why cloud hosting is better than servers?
Cloud hosting is better than having a dedicated server because of the added level of redundancy. If your dedicated machine suffers a hardware failure for example, your site goes down and there is no fast way to recover service. While on the cloud, if one of the machines that take part of the pool fails, the rest take over and your site won’t experience downtime.
Why should you move to the cloud?
The top 3 most common reasons to use cloud hosting are scalability, reliability, and easy data recovery. Hosting on the cloud allows you more flexible and fast ways of adding more RAM, CPU and space to your account when needed. At SiteGround we offer automatic scaling, triggered by resource deficiency events. When your site is suddenly getting a spike in traffic, our system would automatically add CPU or RAM to keep the service available. Because of the nature of the cloud, where several servers are connected in a system, the service availability and reliability is much better since there is added redundancy - your website won’t go down if one or even a few of the machines fail as the rest will take over the load. And ultimately, even if some of the servers fail and lose data, that data will be available on the rest of the machines and could be recovered easily and quickly.
Easy start & Managed updates
Quick WordPress Migration
You can migrate your WordPress installation(s) to your cloud with just a few clicks using our Migrator plugin. We also provide professional website migration services for as low as $30.00/site . Our experts will do all the work for you, transferring your files and databases!
Easy WordPress Start
WordPress can be easily installed on your cloud, through our auto-installation tools. With each installation we provide our unique WordPress Starter. It allows you to choose from a selected collection of professional site designs and handpicked WordPress plugins. Thus it helps you launch a beautiful and fully functional new site in just a few minutes.
Managed WordPress Updates
Your WordPress installations and plugins are kept up-to-date by our Auto-Updater. This significantly improves the security of your sites. You can also schedule how fast your site is updated after a new version is released or even skip a version if you need more time to prepare for the update.
Staging, Git & WP-CLI
One-click Staging Tool
You can easily create a fully-functional copy of your WordPress or WooCommerce shop and test major changes safely before applying them on your production site. The tool also automatically backs up your current site before each staging upload.
Git Integration
Git is preinstalled on your cloud account and we also provide a unique SG-Git tool that allows you to create repos of your WordPress site(s) through a visual interface.
WP-CLI Available
If you want to manage your WordPress site through command line we have WP-CLI installed on our cloud servers for you.
Caching & more
Unique Caching Options
WordPress instances hosted on SiteGround are amazingly fast. By default, we enable NGINX Direct Delivery for all sites on our servers, which means that items like your images will load faster from the server memory. Speed up your site even more by using the higher levels of our SuperCacher service and connecting your site with our NGINX-based dynamic cache and Memcached service through our SG Optimizer plugin.
Optimal PHP and HTTPS setup
You can easily set the optimal PHP version for your WordPress through the SG Optimizer plugin and correctly configure our HTTPS option with a click. Both these options ensure an increase in the website loading speed.
Application optimizations
Our SG Optimizer plugin includes automatic image optimizations, lazy image loading, GZIP compression, CSS & HTML minifications. Using the plugin’s features allows users to have an all-in-one solution, custom-built for the SiteGround hosting environment. This way, you get the best possible performance results from a single plugin instead of using multiple optimization plugins.
White-label Reselling
Free Private DNS
If you want to provide the space of your cloud account to your own customers without referring to SiteGround as the original hosting provider, you may use our free Private DNS service. This allows you to replace our standard NS name, which usually includes SiteGround in it, with a name of your own choice.
White-label Reselling and Client Management
On GoGeek and Cloud hosting plans, you can provide white-label access to the Site Tools of the sites you build for your clients. When your client logs in the Site Tools of their website, they won’t see the SiteGround logo or name anywhere.
Dedicated IP
Each Cloud hosting plan includes a free dedicated IP that is not shared with other users on the same hosting environment. Thus you are safe from having your site being affected from IP blacklist due to other webmasters’ actions.
Free CDN Service
Get a free CDN service at SiteGround. The CDN tremendously speeds up your page load time for visitors from different geographical locations. In order to speed up the delivery of a page, it caches its content on multiple servers across the globe and serves it to the visitor from their nearest location.
Free Let’s Encrypt SSL
We provide an unlimited number of free Let’s encrypt certificates. All new sites hosted on your cloud account get a free Standard SSL enabled. You may also switch to a free Wildcard SSL at any time from our Let’s Encrypt SSL tool.
Daily Backups
Sleep easy knowing your site is fully backed up in case of data loss, hacking, or human error. We automatically save daily backups and keep 7 copies of your cloud account. For an additional layer of security these backups may be stored in a data center located in another city, state or country. In addition to our automated backups, customers can generate up to 5 free backups on demand from their control panel. Each of them is kept for 7 days.
Collaboration Tools
Ship Sites to Clients
You may transfer a website from your Account to a different SiteGround client and make recommendations about the hosting plan and additional services they need to activate. Especially useful for designers, developers, and agencies shipping sites to clients.
Collaborators Can Be Added
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.
