How to choose the right hosting plan

Shared or managed WordPress? A practical checklist based on traffic, storage, email needs and how much help you want with maintenance.

Most people over-buy their first hosting plan, then under-buy six months later. Here is a simple way to pick correctly the first time.

1. Start with your traffic, not your disk space

Visitors per month matter far more than gigabytes. Under 20,000 visits per month, our Starter or WP Start plan is comfortably enough. Between 20,000 and 150,000, move up to Business, WP Business or Pro. Those plans carry more CPU and memory, which is what a busy site actually runs out of first.

2. Count your email accounts honestly

If you run email for a team, check how many mailboxes your plan includes and whether it supports IMAP, spam filtering and per-domain DKIM. The Pro plan includes unlimited mailboxes, which usually costs less than paying a separate mail provider.

3. Decide between shared and managed WordPress

Shared cPanel hosting gives you full control over every part of your account and is the right choice for mixed websites, custom applications and email. Managed WordPress hosting pre-installs WordPress, adds LiteSpeed object caching, staging and automatic core updates, and is the better fit if you would rather not think about maintenance.

4. Check what happens when you outgrow it

Good hosts let you upgrade in place without migrating data yourself. Every Fonhost plan can be upgraded from your client area in one click, prorated to the day, and your files and databases move with you.

5. Look at the renewal price

The introductory price is not the price. Every plan page on this site publishes the standard renewal rate in Nepalese Rupees, so you can compare the true two-year cost before you commit.
