• Stellar Plus: Starting at $2.98 per month, users can create unlimited websites, automatic backups and unlimited storage
• Stellar Business: Starting at $4.98 per month, users get unlimited websites, automatic backups and cloud storage and up to 50 GB of storage

Small businesses can choose to sign up for a plethora of dedicated, reseller, WordPress or VPS plans, too. If you’re unsure whether the plan you chose is sufficient, Namecheap offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Free Website Migration

For those who already have a website with another hosting company, Namecheap will help you migrate it to theirs for free. The company guarantees it’ll complete a full cPanel migration within 24 hours and no more than 15 minutes of downtime. Otherwise, it’ll credit your account with an amount equivalent to your first year of a shared hosting plan.

Website Builder

Site Maker, Namecheap’s drag and drop website builder, doesn’t require any coding skills. You can sign up with your email address for free to test it out. You can either start from scratch or choose from a variety of templates. If you like what you see, you can continue to sign up for a paid plan.

Supersonic CDN

Namecheap’s Content Delivery Network (CDN) offers fast delivery speeds and high bandwidth so that it takes seconds for your website content to update and load. This results in faster load times, helpful for small businesses who want to ensure their website runs smoothly. Though all shared hosting tiers offer this for free with their plans, customers can upgrade to faster servers for an extra fee.
