Shared Web Hosting

Namecheap’s Shared Web Hosting is backed by Namecheap’s Hosting Guarantee. This guarantee represents the highest quality you can expect from Namecheap and underlines their commitment to providing excellence in their hosting division.

Although SSL certificates are now mandatory, All Namecheap Shared Hosting customers will receive 50 free PositiveSSL certificates for one year.

Managed WordPress Hosting

Namecheap’s Managed WordPress Hosting is a hosting environment specifically designed for WordPress that doesn’t require any maintenance on your part.

With Shared Hosting you are sharing your resources with other website owners. This means that if someone else’s website gets a lot of traffic, you may experience slowdowns or downtime. With Managed WordPress Hosting you’ll also never notice if a server or any hardware fails because your website stays containerised from such incidents.

You can install any theme or plugin of your choice using WordPress dashboard. It is recommended you avoid untrusted sources, as well as illegal free downloads of premium themes and plugins.

VPS Hosting

Namecheap’s VPS Hosting refers to the partitioning of a physical server into multiple ones. Since each VPS features its own Operating System (OS), it receives a specific share of resources from one physical server so they are isolated, unable to interfere and can be separately rebooted.

Namecheap’s VPS Hosting is ideal for web developers, bloggers, resellers, and e-commerce owners. They offer top security, flexibility if and when your business scales in size, independence from neighbors, and full control over your hosting environment.

Dedicated Servers

Namecheap’s Dedicated Servers Offering optimal security and maximum bandwidth. A Dedicated Server comes with all the resources including root access from one physical server. It’s ideal for those who are more technical savvy (e.g. managing and configuring servers) and for businesses that are resource intensive, handling a considerable amount of daily traffic.

Depending on your needs, Namecheap offers 3 types of Server Management: User Responsible, Basic, and Complete. User Responsible requires that the user takes full responsibility for server management. Basic is where core services are monitored by Namecheap with a proactive response if unexpected server failure occurs. Complete is where Namecheap runs and manages all server, software, and component services. Keep in mind Basic and Complete Managements are only available to those who have operating systems CloudLinux or CentOS and cPanel installed.
