You're going to want to delete old bumps every time that you bump this thread. According to the forum rules, this is what you need to do to avoid spamming your own thread with mostly empty posts that clutter it and make other, more constructive posts have less visibility. I'm not sure if there are any restrictions on new members deleting their own posts, but if there is, just contact a forum moderator and they will most likely do it for you.

For the plans that you show above for the cPanel web hosting, is the SSD space shared between the email accounts and the databases? I ask because I have seen other web hosting providers offer their SSD space only for upload of website data such as web pages and scripts and then have databases and email on separate storage which may not be necessarily SSD and can therefore be much slower. Also, what technologies and server side languages do you allow? Is PHP5/7 enabled and is there a limit on cron jobs, etc. that could come up at some point during service? Thanks.

Everything is on SSD. I don't see what would be the point running the database on a non-SSD configuration. I have never seen that a provider would do that. Maybe I was just lucky with providers before.

The technologies depend on which one of our packages you buy. I would say the main difference is currently that our normal web-hosting doesn't use LiteSpeed while our WordPress hosting does. Aside from that, shared hosting is pretty standardized technology-wise.
I don't believe we have a limit on cron jobs, however, we don't allow excessive resource use. (But that would have to be an abusive, extreme case)

PHP 5 and 7 (PHP 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6 or 7) is enabled on our WordPress hosting packages. PHP 5 is enabled on our normal web-hosting packages.

Is there any particular reason why PHP 7 is not enabled on your lower tier web hosting packages? It is not like it would be more demanding to run than PHP 5 unless there are features in it that I am not aware of (which could be the case). The same goes for LiteSpeed: I have not used it myself but isn't it supposed to be faster than Apache alone? I do not plan to run any intensive resources at all, so the cron jobs would most certainly not be any kind of problem, as they are simply small update scripts that I need to run on a schedule. The comment on the SSD was just for clarification. You don't want to know what kind of providers you can find around these forums that try to undersell or mislead. Glad to know you are not one of those.


Thank you for those questions!
Our lower end packages are extremely cost-efficient. That means there are some features that aren't there at the moment. If our lower end packages would be the same as our higher end ones, there would be no point to either of them. Also, notice that we offer more disk space on our lower end packages. PHP 7 is just an additional feature. The more feature rich a package is the more expensive it is. I think it's common sense. Also, neither PHP 7 or Litespeed is necessarily better then the other options.
You can read more about the web servers here: https://www.conetix.com.au/blog/apache-vs-nginx-vs-openlitespeed-part-1
There is a lot of variation of the features in terms of packages and Hosting providers. If everyone would offer exactly the same features then customers would have no way of choosing the best package that suits their needs.
I hope this explains it somewhat.

Buddy, just want to know whether you provide domain along with hosting or hosting service alone? I have a plan to take peon package for one of my site .
Also one more doubt. If I take peon package, can you tell me how many visitors can it hold online per day without showing your resource is full? I am estimating a number of 4000 users per day as it is a GPT site. I know for gpt site,vps hosting is the best. I will use vps when the my site grows.

Sorry for the late-ish reply! Smiley

Yes, we provide domains. You can order the domain from our website.
All of our packages can hold any number of visitors, but over a certain amount, you will start to experience performance issues. Just like with any other hosting provider.

If your website gets too big for a shared hosting plan it is advisable to upgrade to a VPS. (As you suggested)
