Account Limits
Anything ‘Unlimited’ sounds fantastic. When it’s related to web hosting service, it feels too good to be true doesn’t it? Every web hosting firm provides you with various ‘Unlimited’ plans ‐ be it Unlimited Hosting, Unlimited Bandwidth, Unlimited Space, etc. So what does ‘Unlimited’ really mean? Does it mean that you can put up whatever you like on your website and no one will object? That isn’t the really the case.
Unless you are using Dedicated Servers, a normal hosting package uses shared resources i.e. multiple users share the same server resources such as RAM, Processor, Storage et cetera. As technology & the capabilities of our servers continue to grow, we can continually allow you to do more with your hosting package and its bandwidth. The way shared hosting is sold has undergone substantial changes over the years. In earlier times hosting companies and consumers would obsess over every single parameter. But with today’s robust technology, we can afford to declare all parameters unlimited except a few because in theory we can afford to offer nearly limitless resources to most customers who choose to host with us.
For most users our hosting packages shouldn’t be a problem and our unlimited parameters will never reach its threshold or ‘soft’ limit so to speak. Nonetheless, if you do manage to hit our resource limits while legitimately hosting a website with us feel free to get in touch with us and we will make sure we provide you with the best solution possible!
All limits are posted on the following pages WordPress Hosting Limits & SSL Shared Hosting Limits . Limits posted here are subject to change.
