Hosting Features

Monthly visits represent an approximate number of visits that the hosting plan is most suitable to accommodate. It is merely a point of reference, rather than a restriction.

Web space represents the amount of web storage, allocated for each account on the according hosting plan. Our shared hosting plans use SSD storage and are designed to meet the needs of any type of website accordingly.

Both our GrowBig and GoGeek hosting plans allow you to host unlimited websites on a single hosting account, using the addon domain functionality in the cPanel.

We provide you with unmetered data transfer for your website, so that you can host almost any kind of personal, small business and community website and grow freely to attract more and more visitors.

You can create a beautiful and responsive website or online store with no technical skills using our simple yet powerful drag and drop website builder.

Our custom built Setup Wizard can get you started with a new website in minutes. It provides countless options, including popular CMSs like WordPress, Joomla!, Drupal, etc.

You can have unlimited number of FREE email accounts at your domain name - e.g. you@yourdomain.com. You can also use forwarders and aliases that allow you to forward emails received to any of your email accounts to another mailbox. Our hosting plan includes the three most popular web-based mail clients: Horde, RoundCube and SquirrelMail, so you can access your email accounts from any computer with an Internet connection.

You can have unlimited number of MySQL databases with all our shared hosting plans.

A subdomain allows you to create a separate website under your main domain name. For example, if your domain is siteground.com the sub domain would look like blog.siteground.com. Parked domains, on the other hand, allow you to have multiple domain names pointing to the same website. For example, registering siteground.net and siteground.us and assigning them to point to siteground.com.

We have integrated the most popular hosting control panel, cPanel, in all our shared hosting plans. In addition to its default functionality, including a file manager, email manager, domain manager, password protected directories, MIME types, SSI, hot linking protection, www and non-www Access, IP filtering, cron jobs management, Apache handlers editing, etc., we also offer customized skins and features for easier cPanel management and navigation.

We have also integrated Softaculous autoinstaller that allows you to install more than 300 applications with a few clicks through cPanel. Even more applications are available for simple installation through the cPAddon section, where SiteGround regularly adds new applications requested by its customers.

We offer 30-day money back guarantee on all shared hosting plans.

We have long-term expertise in providing services for Magento websites. All our shared hosting plans include a free Magento installation with a few clicks straight from your SiteGround Customer Area.

On a server level, we closely monitor the overall security status of the Magento application and its popular plugins and apply strict security audit procedures. If major vulnerabilities appear we apply server level fixes often before the official development fixes are released.

We help our customers every step of the way and solve problems other hosts define as non-hosting related and beyond their scope. Aside from providing easy and hassle-free Magento installation and free migration, we also help you with popular Magento modules and themes and investigate and fix Magento-specific issues.

Git is an open source distributed version control system. SG-Git allows you to create a Git repository of your Magento installation, which you can later access, download and edit on multiple local branches using Git. You will be able to deploy updates with ease, as well as show differences between your local source code and your production or staging site.

We offer you 4 data center locations for the best website speed for visitors from USA, Europe and the Asia-Pacific region. In each location we use only top-of-the-line hardware with extensively tested configuration.

Files and databases on all of our shared hosting plans are stored on cutting-edge Solid State Drive technology. SSDs provide for a 1000x increase in input/output operations as compared to regular drives.

We have built a unique platform for our shared hosting plans, based on Linux containers. On top of them we use a customized CentOS and a mixture of Apache and NGINX web server technologies to ensure unmatched shared server performance.

Our free Cloudflare CDN makes your website load faster in any part of the world by caching its content and distributing it over multiple data centers. When foreign visitors access your website, our CDN delivers the content much faster from the closest data center to them. Thanks to its wide network, Cloudflare also protects your site by identifying and blocking malicious traffic to it.

HTTP/2 is the newest version of the HTTP protocol and it allows browsers to load websites much faster. HTTP/2 is supported on our servers. This means that all people that use a HTTP/2 ready browser to visit your site will enjoy faster loading times.

We have developed our in-house caching service to increase the number of hits a site can handle and drastically boost loading speed. Our SuperCacher offers three levels of caching options to accelerate your site: Level 1: Static content cache; Level 2: Dynamic data cache, both powered by NGINX; and Level 3: Database queries results cache, running on Memcached.

Our data centers provide high level electricity redundancy with multiple failover options including multiple power feeds, own power generators and enterprise-class UPS technology.

We keep on-site replacement parts for every model of server hardware in operation to facilitate immediate reaction in the event of a hardware problem. In the rare cases requiring the information to be transferred to a new machine, we are among the very few hosting companies that keep whole spare servers at hand, installed, plugged and ready to go in a matter of minutes to dramatically minimize downtime in such cases.

Our talented DevOps team has built our unique hosting platform based on one of the hottest virtualization technologies - Linux Containers (LXC). Many of the Linux Kernel changes we have made while building the platform have been highly acclaimed by the official Linux Kernel developers and are now part of the Linux Kernel source code. The LXC is extremely resource-efficient and also allows us to easily scale up server resources in times of high load. Thus unexpected traffic spikes do not lead to downtime.

Thanks to our custom server setup, the accounts on all SiteGround shared servers are isolated from each other through a unique mechanism. Thus, even if there is one vulnerable hosting account, it will not affect the rest of the accounts on the same machine. This makes our shared hosting environment as secure as much more expensive dedicated solutions.

We are fanatic about monitoring the health of our servers and network, and maximizing uptime. We use the fastest automatic monitoring and reaction system Guardian by 1H, which fixes overload and outage problems in less than a second after they have started. Just to compare it with the standard built-in cPanel monitoring, the latter reacts 5 minutes later and only to half of the issues that Guardian fixes. On top of this we also have 24/7 human monitoring.

Each year we add hundreds of new rules to our WAF (Web Application Firewall) to protect WordPress, Joomla, Drupal and other applications from possible attacks. We have a strong record of fixing massive vulnerabilities by providing a protective rule on the same day an issue is announced.

The highest security level of our server software is ensured not only by regular updates but also by multiple custom security patches written by our outstanding DevOps team.

We offer one of the most advanced solutions against SPAM – SPAM Experts on all our servers at no additional cost. Easily scalable and cPanel integrated, SPAM Experts provides protection for both incoming and outgoing email messages and allows easier management of spam filtering, quarantine zones, as well as email traffic stats insights.

We backup account data on our hosting servers on a daily basis for up to 30 days back. In case of emergency, you can easily restore your website, email or files with a few easy clicks. The restores are free and take just a few clicks in our easy restore tool.

Have a 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.

Our support department is available 24/7 to resolve your issues instantly and efficiently. Our fast reaction to all critical issues is what our customers love! We are proud that the procedures and the systems we have implemented allow us to address meaningfully the majority of the serious issues in less than 5 minutes!

Our Support team is available over phone, live chat and ticketing system to resolve your issues quickly and efficiently.

On GrowBig and GoGeek plans, we provide а free professional transfer of 1 existing website per account. On the StartUp plan, professional transfers are a paid service.

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.

Building an online shop at SiteGround couldn't be easier. We offer free and easy installation of a shopping cart of your choice, such as Magento, osCommerce, PrestaShop and more.

We provide free and automated SSL installation of certificates for all domains hosted on our shared plans by the open certificate authority (CA) Let’s Encrypt. No complicated configurations, no validation emails required. They renew automatically and are supported by all major browsers.

Payment Card Industry (PCI) data security standards apply for sites that process online transactions. The level of compliance required depends on how your site processes credit card related information. We keep our GoGeek servers compliant with the basic set of PCI rules that are normally needed by merchants, who do not process or store credit card information themselves but use third party professional services for that.

We have a unique server setup that allows each customer to choose between multiple versions of PHP to use for their account. This specific server configuration allows our customers to use multiple applications on a single account, even if they require different PHP versions. Currently, the supported versions are {$1}.

Our free SSH is developed in-house to allow secure account-restricted access. It gives you an encrypted secure connection to your account to manage easily large files and even databases. It is especially useful to administrators and web developers looking to enable direct secure access to their hosting account on the web server. With SSH enabled, you can also take advantage of SFTP for secure file access, transfer and management.

We offer unlimited number of MySQL and PostgreSQL databases. You can easily create and manage them through the corresponding systems: phpMyAdmin and phpPgAdmin.

With SiteGround you can create Unlimited FTP accounts with specific restrictions on what the different people connected to your website can upload and download. Adding and removing FTP accounts is easy, as well as changing their passwords. We also offer anonymous FTP.

Our staging feature is available for WordPress and Joomla 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.

Git is preinstalled on our GoGeek servers and you can use it to create repositories of your website, which you can later access, download and edit on multiple local branches using Git. We have also developed a unique SG-Git interface that allows you to create repos of the most popular applications (WordPress, Joomla, Magento, Drupal, PrestaShop) through a visual interface.
