What Is Included in Our Low Cost Website Hosting

- SSL for secure connections

Hosting Plans for Standard Websites and Online Shops
Our hosting is available in two simple options. The main difference is usually visitor demand and website usage. Standard websites are ideal for brochure and lead-generation sites, while shop hosting is better suited to websites expecting more visitors, more page activity, and ecommerce-style traffic.
Standard Website Hosting
A solid option for brochure websites, service websites, local business websites, and lead-generation websites.
SSL included
Backups included
Secure hosting environment
Caching support where appropriate
Hosting support for live site issues
Suitable for standard traffic levels
Shop Website Hosting
Best for ecommerce and shop websites that usually attract more visitors, load more pages per session, and need extra room for product, basket, and checkout activity.
Everything in Standard Hosting
Better suited to higher visitor numbers
Well suited to product and checkout pages
More appropriate for busier WooCommerce sites
Extra headroom for ecommerce activity
Designed for stronger day-to-day shop usage
Why is shop hosting slightly more? Shop websites usually have more visitors, more page requests, and more activity across product, basket, and checkout pages. The pricing reflects the heavier day-to-day usage of the hosting environment rather than just the type of website.
Secure Website Hosting Essentials
Secure hosting starts with getting the basics right. This page focuses on the hosting environment and the essentials that help keep your site protected and available, while broader care, updates, and ongoing changes sit under maintenance.
SSL and Secure Access
SSL is included so your website can use secure encrypted connections and appear more trustworthy to visitors.
Firewall and Basic Hardening
Where relevant, the hosting setup includes sensible protective measures to reduce common risks and improve resilience.
Access Controls
Clear access practices help keep the live hosting environment more secure and easier to manage safely.
Backups and Recovery
Backups are part of keeping the live environment recoverable if something goes wrong.
Malware Response Process
Where relevant, there should be a defined process for identifying and responding to live hosting-related issues.
Hosting vs Maintenance — What Is the Difference?
This is one of the most important distinctions. Hosting is about the environment that keeps your website live and available. Website maintenance plans are about ongoing care, updates, checks, and changes to the website over time.
- Hosting keeps the website live
- Hosting covers the environment, availability, and server-related essentials
- Maintenance keeps the website updated and checked
- Maintenance covers ongoing care, updates, monitoring, and change-related work
Website Migration Process
Moving to a new hosting environment should feel organised and low-risk. Our website migration process is designed to move the site across with testing and as little disruption as practical.
Review the Existing Site
We assess the current website, platform, and hosting setup so the migration approach matches the type of site being moved.
Prepare and Test
We prepare the hosting environment, move the website across, and test it before the final switch so issues are spotted early.
Switch with Minimal Downtime
Where possible, the aim is to keep downtime low and make the live cutover as smooth as practical for the type of website involved.
Check the Live Site
After the switch, we confirm the website is loading correctly in its new environment and that the hosting setup is behaving as expected.
Hosting Support and Response Expectations
Clear boundaries help avoid confusion. Hosting support is there to help with environment and availability issues related to the hosted site. It is separate from ongoing development work, design changes, or broader website management.
What Hosting Support Covers
Hosting support usually relates to uptime, environment issues, migration help, and server-related problems affecting the live website.
What Sits Separately
Content edits, new features, design changes, development requests, and broader maintenance work are usually handled separately from hosting support.
When Development Is Needed
If the request involves building, editing, improving, or restructuring the website itself, that is usually development work rather than hosting support.
When Maintenance Helps
Businesses that want regular checks, updates, backups, and ongoing care often benefit from a separate maintenance plan alongside hosting.
Tell Me What Site You Need Hosted
Let us know what kind of website you have, whether it is already live, and whether you need website migration as part of the move.
Low Cost Website Hosting FAQs
Can you host an existing website?
Yes. If you already have a live website and want to move it over, we can usually help with website migration and set it up on the new hosting environment.
Do you include email hosting?
This depends on the setup and what is being offered. It is best to confirm email requirements separately so expectations stay clear from the start.
Do you handle website migrations?
Yes. Website migration can usually be included when moving an existing site across, with testing before the final switch wherever practical.
What happens if the website grows?
If the site grows, the hosting setup can be reviewed and adjusted so the environment continues to match the website’s needs over time.
Is this managed WordPress hosting?
For suitable WordPress websites, this can function as managed WordPress hosting in the sense that the hosting environment is handled for you. Broader maintenance and ongoing website changes are separate from that.
