Shared Hosting FAQ
What is shared hosting?
Your website shares server resources with other customers on the same machine. It's the most affordable option and ideal for small websites and blogs.
Is shared hosting fast enough?
For most sites under 10,000 visitors/month, a quality shared host with LiteSpeed delivers perfectly fast page loads.
When should I upgrade?
Consider VPS hosting when you exceed 20,000 monthly visitors or need dedicated resources and root access.
