You will never guess what 5quidhost offer? Yep, you are right, hosting plans that cost £5 per month with no hidden fees or extra charges. So if you are budgeting and want a decent host that prides itself on customer reviews then you can’t go wrong with 5quidhost.
They will help you migrate your current site from your current hosting plan, and help set you up on their servers, and you will also benefit from 99.9% uptime SLA.
Unfortunately there is nothing on the site that talks about the kind of uptime you should expect or information that details backup information, data centre locations or redundancy power systems. We decided to check trust pilot as a source of customer feedback and found a number of reviews that praised the uptime, with rare reviews that showed reliability in a negative light.
To score more points here they really should highlight this on their site, as its mostly positive.
Aside from the £5 per month plan, they do offer a free hosting plan as well as a £1.75 per month plan, and a high tiered plan of £10 per month. If you need to scale up then its worth checking out the budget VPS plans they have available.
Even with the free account you get access to 1 MySQL database, unlimited FTP, Email and Sub-domains, with 100MB bandwidth each month. For the higher tiered plans, such as the £5 per month highlighted plan then you can benefit from 1000MB disk space, and unlimited email, MySQL, FTP, and Website accounts, along with unlimited bandwidth.
There are a number of support and contact channels available for you to utilise, whether you are looking to send off a contact form request, browse through FAQs or pick up the phone. They don’t offer detailed support such as knowledge bases, ticket systems or video tutorials but they do have UK and International telephone numbers, a direct email address and a mail-in address.
There are a host of plans available (excuse the pun), which are all priced up according to what kind of features and tools are provided. For shared hosting you will be given the choice of 4 plans, of which one is free to use. The other 3 are priced from £1.75 per month and go up to £10 per month, so they are cost effective plans.
All plans can be upgraded or downgraded at any time you see fit.
The site is well thought out and lot of work has gone into the presentation. The design and layout makes it easy for the user to be able to navigate around the site and find plans and prices that will suit them.
There are no hidden prices or confusing information, it’s simple and to the points, and best of all you get to work with cPanel hosting control panel.
Overall 5quid hosting provide a thorough way of getting your site hosted for a relatively cheap price, they are fairly transparent apart from not detailing any uptime or data centre information, which is odd because most of the reviews show them off in a very positive light.
The site is user-friendly so you can easily navigate through to the sections and areas that you need to get to, and finding the right plan that comes with decent features and tools shouldn’t be any issue. Overall, a very good solution to hosting your site.
