- Traditional sites and client work where cost matters more than edge deploys.
Why I use it
Not everything belongs on a modern deploy platform. Client WordPress sites, small PHP apps and staging boxes run happily on one plan here for a fraction of the cost.
How I use it
- Hosting classic sites and client projects with cPanel-style management.
- Staging environments before something moves to production.
- Mailboxes attached to project domains.
What works
- + Very low entry cost
- + Easy control panel and one-click installs
- + Email hosting included
What doesn’t
- − Renewal pricing jumps after the intro term
- − Shared resources — noisy neighbours exist
- − Not a fit for modern JS deploy workflows
