    Unlimited SSD Disk Space


    There are no set limits on the storage space that we provide in our shared hosting plans. We want you to have the resources you need to build a great online presence, and 99% of all customers will have more than enough storage space to meet their needs.

    That being said, we do require all customers to be fully compliant with our Usage Policy and utilize storage space in the normal operation of a personal or small business website. For customers hosting media content such as videos, music files or image content we allow a maximum media storage allocation of 50GB on our shared hosting plans.

    Typically, customers only run into issues if they use their accounts for storage or file sharing, which is not what our services are intended to support.
