Having an SSL is more than just a best practice for websites, it’s an industry standard. SSL certificates protect the data transmitted through your site and make sure you meet the requirements of search engines that flag unsecured sites. That is why we believe any client of ours should have an SSL installed on their website. To help you do that, we partnered and financially supported since its founding the Let’s Encrypt project, which offers free SSL for anyone. We developed an in-house integration with Let’s Encrypt that allows us to automatically issue and renew their certificates for a hassle-free user experience. All new sites hosted on our platform get the free Standard SSL enabled. Clients may switch to a free Wildcard SSL at any time from their Site Tools. Read more.

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 30 copies on your account. A full backup restore is the fastest way to restore your site and limit the effects of website downtime on your site traffic. The restores are free on all of our shared hosting plans. In addition to our automated backups, customers can generate backups on demand from their Site Tools. The service is free on our GrowBig and GoGeek plans and costs $29.95 on our StartUp plan.

Keeping your WooCommerce application up-to-date with the latest version is an important step in maintaining a secure site. If you find the update process difficult or simply forget to keep track of the new releases, our automatic WordPress software and plugin (WooCommerce and all other plugins included) updates are for you. You can also schedule how soon 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.

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.

Free SSL

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.

Click-and-Install WordPress

We save you the trouble of downloading, installing, and configuring WordPress manually by offering a simple click-and-install option. Our system takes care of everything right at the beginning so you can start customizing your WordPress site faster.

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.

Free automated daily backups

Sleep easy knowing your site is fully backed up and protected from data loss, hacking, or human error. We automatically save daily backups and keep 30 copies on your account.

On-demand backups

GrowBig and GoGeek users can have up to 5 free on-demand backups created and stored on their account. For StartUp accounts the on-demand backup costs $29.95 .

By default, we enable static caching for all sites on our servers, which means that certain items, like your images for example, will load faster from the server memory. However, to unlock the best caching performance and load time on your WordPress site, use the higher levels of our SuperCacher service. These connect your site with our NGINX-based dynamic cache and Memcached service through our SG Optimizer plugin (this option is available on our GrowBig and GoGeek plans).

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.

Our interfaces come with user roles and access rights. On our GrowBig and GoGeek plans you can add collaborators to your site. They get their individual login to the Site Tools of the site and can build or maintain it for you. They can also contact support.

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.

We also develop unique solutions like our AI anti-bot system that effectively blocks millions of security threats every day.

We manage the overall security of your application at a server and firewall level by keeping track of WordPress & WooCommerce-related vulnerabilities and patching against exploits. We add dozens of rules each year and we are able to protect your sites even before the software releases an official security update.

Unique Caching Options

By default, we enable static caching for all sites on our servers, which means that certain items, like your images, will load faster from the memory of the server. However, the biggest impact on the WordPress loading speed is achieved by using the higher levels of our SuperCacher service. This connects your site with our NGINX-based dynamic cache and Memcached service available on our GrowBig and GoGeek plans. For online stores specifically, where dynamic caching may be a problem for shopping cart behavior, we cleverly monitor whether users have items in their cart and exclude them from caching.

Optimal PHP and HTTPS Setup

You can easily set the optimal PHP version for your WordPress through our plugin and start using our recommended HTTPS settings with a click. Both these options will increase website loading speeds.

Our servers are located in some of the best data centers in the world and run on the latest SSD disks. Our hardware is updated regularly. We provide multiple software speed enhancements like HTTP/2, Memcached, additional PHP optimization through the OPCache extension, and more.

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 manual migration services, and your first site migration is free of charge on GrowBig and higher plans.

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.

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.

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.

Unique Caching Options

WordPress instances hosted on SiteGround are amazingly fast. By default, we enable static caching 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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. 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.

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.

High commissions

The hosting industry is popular for high affiliate commissions and SiteGround is among the highest payers. We reward you for your work and endorsement of our service.

Short withhold period

We have a short withhold period of 30 days after the sale is made. The withhold period is the length of our money-back period. Once we verify the sale is valid, we reward you for your effort.

We have prepared a friendly guide, which helps you understand the basics of the affiliate program and gives you fresh ideas for how to refer clients to us.

Our affiliates can rely on the friendly support of our affiliate team. We not only reply to your inquiries quickly and efficiently, but we also proactively reach out to help you optimize your promotional efforts and boost your results.

We provide you with tools that allow you to create separate campaigns for the different marketing initiatives that you start. For example, you can track the performance of two different promotional pages on your site and see which one converts better.

The more clients you refer, the more important your conversion rates become. A custom landing page with content specific to your referrals may help boost your conversions.
