One site on Linux, with cPanel and everything it needs to go live.
Room for several sites, with more storage and more mailboxes.
The full Linux stack, with WHM access and priority support.
Shared hosting on Linux, with cPanel, current PHP and MySQL - the stack almost every PHP application expects, on NVMe storage.
Linux hosting is the default for a reason: WordPress, Laravel, CodeIgniter, Joomla, Drupal and almost every PHP application are written and tested against it first. You get Apache and LiteSpeed, MySQL or MariaDB, and a PHP version you select yourself from cPanel.
Choose Linux unless something specifically requires Windows. If your application is written in PHP, Python, Node or Ruby, or you are running WordPress, Linux is cheaper, faster and better supported. Choose Windows when you need ASP.NET, MS SQL Server, or a desktop application over remote desktop.
You manage your sites, databases and email through cPanel. We manage the server itself - the operating system, the web server, patching, and the monitoring that tells us before you notice. Nothing on this plan requires you to use a command line if you do not want to.
For most customers there is none - our shared web hosting runs on Linux. The separate Linux plans exist for people who want to select their own PHP version, use SSH, and manage the stack a little more directly. If you are not sure, the shared web hosting plans are the simpler choice.
You select the PHP version per website from cPanel, and can change it whenever you like. We keep the currently supported PHP releases available, plus older ones for legacy applications that are not ready to move.
SSH is available on the larger Linux plans, which is what you need for Composer, WP-CLI, git deployment and database dumps. The entry plan is managed through cPanel only.
MariaDB, which is a drop-in replacement for MySQL. Anything written for MySQL works unchanged, including phpMyAdmin, WordPress and Laravel migrations.
Yes, on all but the entry plan. The plan comparison above shows how many addon domains each one allows. Each site gets its own document root, database and SSL certificate.
