Which type of web hosting do you need?

Most small business sites belong on shared hosting. Skyrack sells it in two forms, WordPress hosting and cPanel hosting, which are the same plans on the same servers at the same prices, and both include WP Toolkit. The WordPress page is written for WordPress sites and the cPanel page for everything else. If you are weighing up other options, reseller and VPS plans are for agencies and for sites that need their own resources.

WordPress hosting

For one or more WordPress sites that you or your team update.

  • Same servers and prices as cPanel hosting
  • WP Toolkit included for installs, updates, staging and security
  • Optional monthly WordPress management service
See WordPress hosting

cPanel hosting

For any website or web app, and for business email on your own domain.

  • Same servers and prices as WordPress hosting
  • cPanel for domains, email accounts, databases and files
  • Install WordPress with WP Toolkit, or upload your own site
See cPanel hosting

Reseller hosting

For agencies and developers who host sites for several clients.

  • A separate cPanel account for each client
  • Manage every account from WHM
  • Plans from $44.98 a month
See reseller hosting

Managed VPS

For sites that need their own resources, or have outgrown shared hosting.

  • Your own virtual server with resources reserved for you
  • Skyrack looks after updates, backups and monitoring
  • Plans from $199 a month
See VPS hosting

Not sure? Pick WordPress hosting if your site is built with WordPress and cPanel hosting if it is anything else, or if you mainly need email. You can ask our team to look at your current site and recommend a plan.

Web hosting questions

What is the difference between WordPress hosting and cPanel hosting?

They are the same plans on the same servers at the same prices, and both include WP Toolkit. The WordPress hosting page is written for WordPress sites, and the cPanel hosting page for any other website or app, or when email, several domains or custom code are involved.

Where are Skyrack hosting servers?

All hosting servers are in a Sydney data centre. Our DNS network has nodes in Sydney, Melbourne, Perth and Adelaide, and our team operates between Sydney and Adelaide.

How much does web hosting cost?

Shared WordPress and cPanel plans start from $4.98 a month. Reseller hosting starts from $44.98 a month and managed VPS plans from $199 a month. There are no lock-in contracts. We keep prices down by investing in our platform and services, which means fewer problems and fewer support requests, not by removing features.

Will you move my existing website?

Yes. The Skyrack team migrates one existing cPanel account per hosting service for free, including its email. cPanel-to-cPanel migrations are free; ask us about other platforms. You can keep your old host running until you are happy with the move.

When should I move from shared hosting to a VPS?

Consider a VPS when your site regularly needs more resources than a shared plan provides, or when you need your own server environment. Our team can look at your traffic and recommend a plan. VPS plans are fully managed by Skyrack.

How do I get help?

Contact the Skyrack team by email, online chat or a call-back request. Our team operates between Sydney and Adelaide and has been hosting websites since May 2012.

Can I get a refund if it is not right for me?

If you ask within 30 days of placing your order, we refund your hosting payment in full to your original payment method. Request it by opening a ticket with our Accounts and Billing department. The refund covers web, WordPress, reseller, email and VPS hosting plans; domain names, SSL certificates and licences are not refundable. Refunds are subject to approval under our terms of service.

How reliable is Skyrack hosting?

Shared and reseller hosting are covered by a 99.9% uptime SLA, and VPS hosting by a 99% monthly uptime commitment, as set out in our service level agreement. You can see how our services are running at any time on our public status page.
