Unbeatable Security for All
Security breaches are a constant threat in the online world. That’s why we don’t play favorites when it comes to protecting your website. Every Smart Start Host plan comes equipped with a comprehensive security suite, including:
- Network Firewall (Imunify360): Blocks malicious traffic before it reaches your website.
- Web Application Firewall (WAF): Provides an extra layer of defense against targeted attacks.
- Advanced Firewall with Herd Immunity: Strengthens overall security through a collaborative network.
- Proactive Defense: Identifies and neutralizes threats before they can cause damage.
- Next-Gen IDN/IPS: Offers advanced intrusion detection and prevention for comprehensive protection.
- Hardened PHP: Reduces vulnerabilities in the PHP scripting language.
- Brute Force Protection: Stops unauthorized login attempts.
- Malware Protection: Safeguards your website from malicious code.
- Hotlink Protection: Prevents unauthorized websites from leeching your bandwidth and content.
No Feature Lockout, Just Feature-Packed Plans
Unlike some hosts who hold essential features hostage in higher-tier plans, we believe in empowering you from day one. All our shared hosting plans come packed with features like:
- Cloud Linux: Enhances stability and performance.
- CageFS: Provides account isolation for added security.
- Daily Backups (30 Days): Ensures you can easily restore your website if needed.
- 24/7 Live Server Monitoring: Keeps a watchful eye on your website’s health.
Transparent Pricing, No Gimmicks
We ditch the misleading “90% off” sales tactics and present straightforward, easy-to-understand pricing. You get exactly what you see – a reliable hosting service with no hidden fees. Our starting prices are competitive, and we offer a small discount for your first term to welcome you aboard. Renewal rates are also fair, without any shocking price hikes that leave you feeling duped.
Delivering on Our Promises – Transparency You Can Trust – Ditch The Stress!
We focus on providing a dependable hosting environment that meets your needs. We clearly state the resources included in each plan, whether it’s website capacity, storage space, or bandwidth. If you’re utilizing resources beyond your plan’s capacity, we’ll work with you to optimize your website or recommend an upgrade to better suit your needs. Unappealing “fluff” features are absent – our packages are strong as they stand.
Additional Standard Services We Offer:
