Which hosting plan should a small Zimbabwean business start with?

Start with Bvumba: $50 a year (or $5 a month) for a company website with staff email and a blog, with 50 GB of NVMe storage and unlimited mailboxes. If you only need a simple first site, Himalaya at $30 a year is enough, and upgrading later takes one click.

Every plan has the same features: cPanel, LiteSpeed, free SSL, unlimited email accounts, daily backups, one-click WordPress and free migration from your current host. Only storage, bandwidth and databases change. All prices are in US dollars.

How to decide

  1. Think about email as well as the website. Mailboxes are unlimited, but mail is stored in the plan's space, so a team that keeps years of attachments needs more storage than the site alone.
  2. If you have a site already, check how much space it uses at your current host. Pick a plan with comfortable room above that.
  3. Pay yearly if you can. Bvumba is $50 a year against $60 for twelve monthly payments.
  4. If you're between two plans, start with the smaller one. Upgrading is one click in the client area, takes effect within minutes and needs no migration (guide).

When hosting isn't the right buy

  • You'd rather not update WordPress yourself: managed WordPress from $15 a month, with updates tested on staging, daily backups and malware removal.
  • You need the site built: website design from $550 a year, with hosting and email included.
  • You only need email: business email at $5 a month for up to 50 people.
  • You're opening an online shop: managed e-commerce.

Tip: If this is your first order with Tremhost, web hosting comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee on the plan fee. Domains are not refundable.
