WordPress hosting for business websites and online stores
Run a blog, company website or WordPress online store on local SSD infrastructure. Our WordPress hosting South Africa plans include WordPress Toolkit and clearly listed website, storage, email and database allowances.
Affordable WordPress hosting with room to grow
WordPress hosting starts at R39.99 per month on Basic. Compare WordPress hosting pricing using the monthly and annual totals above, then choose enough space for your media, database and email. Cheap WordPress hosting is only useful when it meets the needs of your site; review capacity and support before committing to a package.
Performance for blogs and business websites
Fast WordPress hosting begins with suitable server resources and a well-maintained site. Resize images, remove unused plugins and review caching before adding more infrastructure. Our Johannesburg servers serve customers looking for WordPress hosting in Cape Town, Durban, Pretoria, Gqeberha, Port Elizabeth, Bloemfontein and East London without implying separate hosting locations in those cities.
WooCommerce and ecommerce hosting requirements
If you plan to use WooCommerce for an online shop, confirm your store's plugin requirements, expected traffic and resource needs with support. Ecommerce website hosting must accommodate product images, checkout sessions, payment integrations and order data. Compare a self-hosted WordPress store with a hosted platform such as Shopify on maintenance responsibility, software costs and the integrations you need.
Secure WordPress hosting is a shared responsibility
The plans list SSL certificates and backups, while WordPress Toolkit supports site administration. Keep WordPress, themes and plugins updated, protect administrator accounts and retain a recovery plan. Managed server infrastructure does not automatically mean that custom development, plugin troubleshooting or malware removal is included in your subscription.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need hosting for WordPress?
A self-hosted WordPress website needs a hosting account and a domain name. Choose a plan, set up WordPress, connect the domain, enable SSL and test the site before launch. Include any paid themes, plugins or development work in your overall budget.
WordPress hosting vs shared hosting: what should I compare?
Look at the tools and support included rather than assuming the product name determines the server architecture. Our WordPress plans list WordPress Toolkit alongside the resource allowances. Compare software requirements and management features with standard web hosting, and ask support about your specific workload.
Can I move a WordPress website to a new host?
Before a WordPress hosting migration, back up the files and database and record your domain, SSL and email settings. Ask support to confirm the migration scope and cost, test the new copy and then update DNS. Plan a content freeze for an active online store so new orders are not lost during the move.
Why is my WordPress website slow or repeatedly going down?
Check the service status, recent plugin or theme changes, logs, resource usage and large page assets. A slow WordPress website can have several causes, so share affected URLs and timestamps with support. If you suspect a hacked WordPress site, preserve a backup and ask for a recovery assessment before deleting files or restoring data.
What should I expect from managed WordPress hosting?
Confirm who handles server maintenance, WordPress updates, plugin compatibility and incident recovery. The advertised plan includes managed hosting infrastructure and WordPress Toolkit; ask support to confirm application-level work and any additional fees. Do not assume a malware-removal or hacked-site recovery service is included.
