SiteGround review

The entry price is €2.99 for the first 12 months. That figure covers the opening term only, so treat it as a trial of the price rather than the price you keep. Renewal is the figure that decides the second bill.

Renewal runs €15.99 to €39.99 a month, which is higher than the €2.99 entry figure. SiteGround ranks 152 of 179 on renewal, so budget from the renewal number and treat the entry price as a one-time saving.

The window is 30 days, and SiteGround ranks 35 of 275 on it. The median across the hosting ranking sits at 30 days, so this is a typical refund window for the category.

The range covers shared web hosting, cloud hosting and WordPress hosting. A WordPress build, a WooCommerce store and a site made on their own website builder can therefore sit with one provider, and support stays on the same channels whichever type you pick.

It depends on the tier: 1 website on StartUp, unlimited on GrowBig and GoGeek. A single site is enough for one brand, while client work or a portfolio needs the larger shared plan. Read the plan name before ordering rather than assuming the entry tier covers it.

Yes. Support runs on chat, phone and help centre, so chat and phone are both open, with a help centre for self-serve answers. That mix suits small teams with no dedicated administrator, where a stalled site has to be raised fast.

They cover North America, Europe and Asia, and uptime is guaranteed at 99.9%. A site read by visitors on several continents can stay with one provider instead of splitting hosting across separate regions.

The listed features are free ssl, backups and staging, so security certificates, backups, staging, a delivery network and email come as part of the package. A build that needs a staging area for releases or a network in front of its assets has both covered.
