Which web hosting plan is right for me?
Work out how many websites, mailboxes and databases you’ll need and how much storage they’ll take. The comparison table shows what each plan includes. If you’re unsure, tell us what you’re building and we’ll help you find a fit.
When can I start setting up my website?
We create your hosting account once we receive payment and approve your order. Your welcome email includes the sign-in details. If you’re registering a domain, changing DNS or moving an existing site, allow extra time for those steps.
What will I use cPanel for?
Use cPanel to upload website files, manage databases and domains, and set up any mailboxes included in your plan. If you know the name of the tool you need, type it into the cPanel search box.
Can I keep the domain I already own?
Yes. You can leave the registration with your current provider and point the domain to your Plenty Host account using the settings in your welcome email. If you already use the domain for email, check your mail records before changing nameservers.
Can you help me move my website to Plenty Host?
Get in touch before you move. We’ll confirm what we can transfer and whether a fee applies. Have a copy of your website files and databases ready, and keep your old hosting active until you’ve tested the new site.
Can I host a WordPress site?
Choose a plan that meets the needs of your WordPress site and plugins. You can use the installer in cPanel or upload an existing site. Keep WordPress, themes and plugins up to date, and take a backup before making major changes.
Can I create an email address at my domain?
If your plan includes email, you can create addresses such as hello@yourdomain.com in cPanel. Use webmail to read your messages in a browser, or find the secure connection settings in cPanel to set up your preferred email app.
How do I set up HTTPS for my website?
Check what SSL coverage your plan includes. You’ll need a valid certificate installed for the addresses people use to visit your site. Once it’s set up, test your main domain and the www version if you use one. Contact us if you need help choosing or installing a certificate.
How often is my website backed up?
Web hosting includes weekly automated backups. Keep a separate copy of important files and databases, especially before an update or a move. If you need to recover something, support can help you check which restore options are available.
Can I add another website or upgrade later?
Check that your plan has room for another domain and enough storage and databases for the new site. If you’re running out of space or need more resources, contact us. We can help you compare a larger hosting plan with a VPS.
