Frequently asked questions

How do I build my online presence?
So much of your personal brand is built around your online presence. In fact, everything you do, say, post, comment or share on the Internet represents your brand. With our Website Builder and other tools offered in our affordable Shared Hosting plans, finding success with your online brand is easy.
What is Shared Hosting?
Shared Web Hosting is an entry-level type of web hosting where one physical server hosts multiple websites (and often hosts hundreds of users). Since each user gets (“shares”) a section of that individual server where they can host their website files, this keeps costs low. Here users share system resources on-demand, receiving a percentage of databases, disk space, CPU, RAM as well as email and FTP accounts. Other resources include the single MySQL server, Apache server, and mail server. Considered the most cost-effective option, Shared Hosting providers offer enough resources for any small business or website. Learn more about Shared Web Hosting →
What is Shared Hosting best for?
Shared Hosting plans offer the most affordable way to get a site online — because the costs of maintaining a server are split among multiple users. This style of hosting is ideal for every startup, small business, or personal website. Find out more about Shared Hosting services →
How do I start using my Shared Hosting account?
To turn your new Shared Hosting account into a professional personal website, simply follow these step-by-step instructions: Shared Hosting — Getting Started.
What is cPanel and how do I use it with Shared Hosting?
cPanel is a control panel that acts as a separate account, designed for managing your Shared Hosting service on the server. You'll be able to build your website with our Website Builder, as well as upload and manage files, create email accounts, and check the stats of your sites — all in one place. Your cPanel login details are found in your Welcome Email.
Is Namecheap Shared Server Hosting cloud-based?
No, although all Namecheap Shared Hosting plans are hosted on a Solid-State Drive (SSD), which helps to enhance performance over traditional hard disk drives (HDD). SSDs also contain no moving mechanical parts, offering faster access time and low latency. Namecheap Stellar Business plans with a US datacenter, as well as all Shared Hosting packages with an EU datacenter are, however, based on Cloud Storage. Here, traditional physical machines are converted to virtual machines (VM), running on a readily-available VM infrastructure.
What is Cloud Storage?
Designed to handle a variety of hardware and software-stack failures, Cloud Storage reinforces your data with an extra layer of protection by distributing it across various servers. Featuring zero downtime and the highest performance, it provides you with the utmost stability. Learn more about Cloud Storage for shared server hosting →
What websites can be moved from another hosting provider with Namecheap’s free migration service?
The migration process from other shared hosting providers to Namecheap is completely free of charge and we guarantee fast cPanel-to-cPanel transfers. Manual website migration is also possible, depending on the individual case.

What should I pay attention to when choosing a hosting provider?
Besides the pricing, there are some important criteria to think about when deciding what hosting provider to use. You should look for uptime, server speed, traffic and resource limits, customization opportunities and what type of support they offer. Learn more about affordable Shared Hosting services.
Shared Hosting vs VPS Hosting — which should I choose?
A VPS gives you access to your own personal server, one that’s split up into several virtual servers with allocated resources (disk space and bandwidth) as well as a pre-installed operating system (OS) of your choice. For website owners looking to grow and scale up, a VPS is highly recommended. If your website is too big for a shared hosting service but too small to benefit from Dedicated Server Hosting, a VPS is the right choice for you.
What is a CDN and how do I use it?
A content delivery network (CDN) is a group of distributed servers around the world to cache (store) and deliver assets (e.g. images and video) to your website visitors faster, no matter their location. In addition to increased website-loading speed, a CDN also secures your website service, protecting it from DDoS and/or cyber attacks. To take advantage of this web hosting tool, learn how to activate your CDN.
Which server location should I choose and why is it important? Which datacenter locations do you offer?
Datacenter locations accommodate website audiences depending on where they are located. For example, let’s say your user base is mostly in the UK. For this reason, we recommend choosing the UK datacenter. Inexpensive web hosting services in Europe are possible, thanks to our sustainable EU datacenter, which covers audiences across Europe, Western Asia, and Africa. If your audience is US-based, our US datacenter location is the best option.
What is EU hosting?
Shared Hosting in Europe simply refers to hosting that’s closer to audiences based in Europe and/or Africa. In an ideal world, your hosting server location should be as close to your audience as possible. This means your website and web pages will load faster, you’ll have higher search engine rankings, and you’ll boost your SEO. For affordable and flexible hosting services in Europe, look no further than Namecheap’s EU datacenter.
How is hosting location-specific?
It is ideal for your hosting server location to be as close to your audience as possible. If you need affordable hosting for Europe and/or Africa audiences then it’s a good idea to find a shared hosting service in Europe. This means your website and web pages will load faster, you’ll have higher search engine rankings, and you’ll boost your SEO. So for the best Shared Hosting EU, look no further than Namecheap’s EU datacenter, which is also 100% renewable energy-powered.
Which hosting plan is right for me?
If you’re still undecided on which package is the best for you, you could consider alternative hosting options. The quickest way to find guidance on this is by taking our online Hosting Quiz, which will point you in the right direction. The quiz will match you to the hosting plan that meets your specific requirements.
Is Shared Hosting good for e-commerce?
Shared hosting is a great option for launching e-commerce sites due to its combination of enhanced performance and affordability. In a shared hosting environment, server resources are managed so websites can work efficiently with less downtime. Then as your business grows over time, you may need to explore other hosting types, such as VPS or Dedicated Hosting, to accommodate increased traffic and resource demands.
