The plans differ only in storage, bandwidth and number of databases.
How quickly is my hosting ready?
Instantly. Your hosting account is set up automatically as soon as your payment goes through, so you can start building or ask us to move your site straight away.
Can I start small and upgrade later?
Yes. Upgrading is one click in your client area and takes effect within minutes, with no downtime, no data loss and no migration fee. If you are torn between two plans, start with the smaller one.
Will you move my website from another host?
Yes, for free. Send us the login details for your current host, or a backup file. We migrate the site, test it, and change your DNS only after we have confirmed everything works, usually within 24 hours.
Do I need a domain name first? Can I get a .co.zw domain?
You can register a domain during checkout or use one you already own. We support common extensions including .co.zw, .com, .africa, .org and .net. You can also register a domain or transfer one on its own. Domain fees are separate from hosting.
Monthly or annual billing: which is better?
Annual is cheaper. Bvumba is $50 a year against $60 for twelve monthly payments, a saving of $10. Chimanimani saves $16 ($80 against $96) and Nyangani saves $10 ($110 against $120). Pay monthly if you want to try us first. Himalaya is sold annually only.
Will my renewal price go up?
No. You renew at the price you signed up at. If base prices ever change, existing customers are given advance notice.
How can I pay? Will my card work?
Pay in US dollars by EcoCash, InnBucks, ZimSwitch, Omari, Visa, Mastercard, Bitcoin, Tron, Litecoin, bank transfer or cash at our Harare office. If a payment doesn't go through, message us on WhatsApp and we'll sort it out.
Is my website secure on shared hosting?
Every plan has free SSL, Imunify360 server security, malware scanning and DDoS protection. You still need to keep WordPress and plugins updated. If you would rather we did that, managed WordPress includes updates, daily backups, malware removal and Cloudflare Pro. For a stronger firewall on this plan, try Cloudflare Pro free for 15 days.
What uptime can I expect?
Our target is 99.9% availability each month. What happens if we miss it is set out in our service level agreement.
Can I host WordPress?
Yes. Install WordPress in one click with Softaculous and manage updates with WordPress Manager. If you would rather we look after WordPress for you, see managed WordPress hosting.
How do I get support?
By WhatsApp or a support ticket, from our team in Harare. Open a ticket or message us on WhatsApp.
Should I choose managed WordPress instead?
Choose web hosting if you are happy to update WordPress and plugins yourself: it starts at $30 a year. Choose managed WordPress, from $15 a month, if you want us to handle updates on a staging copy, daily backups and malware removal, with Cloudflare Pro for every site.
