Buy Website Hosting Using SiteGround

Choosing a best web hosting may be the most important and decisive step before you start designing your website. The biggest investment for your website must be hosting. And today I will show tell you how to buy SiteGround Hosting and why it is the best web hosting provider.

In this step-by-step guide I will show you how to buy your SiteGround web hosting in less than 5 minutes.

Why SiteGround hosting is the best choice?

In my case, I’ve been in SiteGround for over 1 years and that’s where I take all my client’s projects as well.

Before working with them, I’ve tried many web hosting company including local hosting provider but they always had a thin spot or something I didn’t quite like.

Loading speed

Everyone wants a fast loading website, because loading speed is one of the Google ranking factor point.

SiteGround uses SSD disks to make our website go like a rocket. In addition they use a series of cutting-edge technologies in speed (reverse proxy NGINX, HTTP/2, PHP7 and CDN free).

If the host servers are geographically close to your visitors, less will be their loading time.

There’s no secret to this. If your target audience comes from USA, buy web hosting with servers in USA. In the same way, if your audience comes from Asia, have an Asian Server.

SiteGround has a very special particularity: it allows you to choose which server to host your website, being able to choose on three different continents. As most of my audience comes from USA and Australia, I chose the Chicago, USA hosting, although it could also have been Singapore.

Security

SiteGround provides you with a free tool to automatically update your WordPress without you having to blink. In this way, your WordPress installation will always be protected from the latest existing vulnerabilities.

On the other hand, it offers you a free SSL certificate (let’s Encrypt) to make your website encrypted.

Reliability

In my case, my website has never fallen because of them. Moreover, its activity time is 99.99%. Also SiteGround has a backup system for if you get screwed once, we can restore our web page as it was before the error.

Technical support

It will be inevitable to have to contact the technical service of your website throughout the year, you will not get off. It can be for many reasons: page down, technical questions of hosting management, etc.

Most server have a technical service that works with tickets, you send them the incidence, they respond to you after a while, you answer… a very similar operation to emails. And even if they can answer you very quickly, you’re gonna hate it. If you have a problem with your website, you’ll want it fixed in a matter of minutes.

In this sense, SiteGround also hits the nail on the head. You can choose how you want to contact them: phone call, ticket system or by chat. The option I always choose is that of chat, in a matter of seconds an agent is brought to my attention to solve the problem I have at that time, and in a matter of minutes I have it fixed. Nothing compared to the single ticket system of other hosting, they force you to be pending the answers to them and you lose much more time.

Which one should we choose?

If your project is starting, I assure you that the StartUp plan will be more than enough for you. In the future, if your project goes any further, you can always expand it. SiteGround doesn’t get you into this.

On the other hand, if you already have an existing project and are moving it to SiteGround, it will depend on the traffic you receive day by day. If you have any questions about which plan to choose, you can always contact me and I will recommend which plan suits you best according to your needs.

Choose domain

Once you have chosen the plan, Press the “GET PLAN” Button and on the next screen you will have to decide your domain.

  • If you do not have a domain, you can take advantage of the option selected “register new domain” and check the availability of the domain. In case I’m free, you’re going to the third and final step. Otherwise, you’ll have to try your luck with someone else. You’ll be happy to know that SiteGround gives you the first year of the Dominion.
  • If you already have domain: you will have to enter the domain that is already your property.

Regardless of the path you have followed, you will have to press the “Continue”button.
