Shared Web Hosting
A website without a server to run.
Shared hosting is the low-cost way to get a site online. You need no technical knowledge: pick a plan, get a control panel, and publish. Choose a Linux server with cPanel or a Windows server with Plesk.

Questions
Shared hosting, briefly.
What is Shared Hosting?
Shared Hosting is our most popular way to get started online. It is a quick, low-cost way to set up a website. It gets its name because several customers share one server, which keeps the cost down. Each website gets its own space on that server. In most cases sites stay in their own space and do not disturb the others. You pay only a fraction of what hosting a site on your own server would cost, because you share the space.
Can I use a control panel with my Cloud Server?
Yes. CACloud offers control panels for Linux and Windows servers. You can add cPanel or Plesk to your server during sign-up. If you want a preconfigured package, we also offer cPanel and Plesk Shared Cloud Hosting on our own cloud platform.
How much technical knowledge do I need?
A Cloud Server can be set up online within minutes. You get a user-friendly control panel and pre-installed software, so you need very little experience to get started. Remember that Cloud VMs are not managed by default. Each user maintains their own server.
How do you bill?
Prices on the site are the monthly rate, billed to a credit card, and you can cancel at any time. Shared hosting and cloud servers can also be bought on a one, two or three year term, which costs less per month. You pick the term in the cart before you pay. Private Clouds are quoted. Every invoice is available in your control panel.
Is your support 24/7?
Yes. Our support team is available 24/7 at support@cacloud.com. Cloud Servers are self-managed, so check what your plan covers. The standard response time for the support team is 24 hours. If you need a true 24/7/365 response time, sign up for Managed Support.
