SiteGround Coupon and Promo Codes

Without knowing your website, and how many visitors it gets it is difficult to provide specific advice. SiteGround does have some recommendations on the number of page views each plan can accommodate with their shared hosting, although this should be taken as a guide only as there is no page view limit attached to any of the plans. The StartUp Plan should be sufficient for 10,000 page views, GrowBig Plan for up to 25,000 page views and the GoGeek Plan for up to 100,000 page views.

If you would like all their levels of SuperCacher (i.e. dynamic caching), then you should choose either the GrowBig or the GoGeek Plan as the StartUp Plan only comes with static caching.

If you like the look of the developer features (Site Staging, GIT), then you will need the GoGeek Plan.

If you want a little more control, and full SSD hosting along with their HVVM powered Cloud (which we use for this website) then we recommend their cloud hosting.

In all cases, make sure to utilize one of our SiteGround coupon codes.

SiteGround offers a trial of their hosting for one month, but it is subject to a $14.95 setup fee to do this. After the first month, you must pay for the full twelve months as they do not have a monthly billing cycle. We do not believe this to be a cost-effective way forward.

Instead of paying for a one month trial, we recommend you pay for a year and use our 60 percent off coupon. You then have 30 days to try them out, and if you decide they are not for you, you can request a refund under their money-back guarantee.

According to their website, SiteGround only accepts payments via Visa or MasterCard credit \ debit cards only.

That being said, we are aware of one customer contacting them via support ticket requesting to pay with PayPal, and they were sent an invoice enabling them to do so. We are unaware if this was a one-off or something they will do for all customers if requested. If this is important to you, we suggest you contact them directly.

SiteGround offers a 30-day money-back guarantee for their shared hosting plans. The guarantee only covers the cost of the shared hosting. All add-ons \ third party services (including free domains) are specifically excluded. Cloud VPS and dedicated plans are also specifically excluded.

The money back guarantee only applies to new accounts, not renewals.

Yes, the cost of hosting will go up once you renew, as the initial discount offered by our SiteGround coupons only applies to the first invoice. During the order process, the discounted rate and the renewal rate are shown.

We recommend signing up for three years to make the most of the initial discount.

SiteGround offer supports ²⁴⁄₇ via telephone, ticket, and online chat. They are renowned for their fast support, and our own experiences show that they usually respond to tickets within 5-10 minutes, although we have only ever used plans that come with their Premium Support as standard. Premium support comes free with the GrowBig and GoGeek plans, as well as free for the first three months on the StartUp plans.

With Premium Support, your tickets are given higher priority in the queue with promises to resolve the issues more quickly. Also, submitting a support ticket is easier as you do not need to select a category for your support ticket. Without a doubt, we recommend having Premium Support, and specifically, we would recommend the GrowBig plan that comes with this as standard, as other great features such as all three levels of SuperCacher, and daily backups.

In our opinion, yes. The backup service, which comes free with GrowBig and GoGeek plans and a small additional fee for StartUp plans, is essential. The Backup Service will store 30 days worth of backups for your account, so should you get hacked or do something that breaks your website you will have peace of mind that you can restore an earlier version.

Moreover, you can restore specific files \ databases which are incredibly useful for fine tuning any restorations.

You get 20 percent off the Backup Service when ordering at the same time as your Startup Hosting account, but as we said, it is more cost effective to purchase a higher plan that has this (and more) free.

This is a third party service (not included in money-back guarantee) that scans up to 10 random pages of your website each day searching for malware. If such code is found, you will be immediately alerted by email enabling you to take action. If no malware or suspicious code is found, you will receive a report each week showing which pages were scanned and the results.

When you purchase the HackAlert monitoring at the same time as your hosting account, you will receive 50 percent off. It is billed yearly.
