Unmetered Web Hosting

How much bandwidth will my plan include?

Bandwidth is "Unmetered" which means you are not charged according to the amount of bandwidth you typically use in the normal operation of a personal or small business website.

However, we do require all customers to be fully compliant with our Terms of Service and to not exceed 25% or more of system resources for longer than 90 seconds.

What happens if I exceed usage?

If we have concerns about your account's bandwidth utilization, you will receive an email asking you to reduce usage.

It is rare for a customer who is managing a personal or small business website to exceed our usage policies.

FAQs

LAMP stands for Linux (operating system), Apache (web server software), MySQL (database server), and PHP (programming language). This open source software stack provides a cost-effective solution for hosting dynamic websites and web applications with high performance and reliability.

Apache is the web server component responsible for handling client requests, serving static and dynamic web pages, and managing communication between the server and browsers. It is highly customizable and supports modules to extend its functionality, making it essential for hosting dynamic content.

Absolutely. The LAMP stack is designed to create dynamic web pages and host dynamic websites and applications. With PHP handling scripting and MySQL managing database operations, your VPS can efficiently run complex web applications.

Thanks to the open source nature of LAMP components, there is extensive community support available. You can access forums, tutorials, and documentation contributed by experienced developers worldwide, which helps when troubleshooting or optimizing your hosting environment.

You can manage your MySQL database server via command-line tools or graphical interfaces like phpMyAdmin. Proper database management ensures efficient data storage, retrieval, and security for your web applications.

Yes. With full root access on a self-managed VPS, you can customize every layer of your LAMP stack—from selecting PHP versions and configuring Apache modules to tuning MySQL settings—tailoring your server environment to your specific needs.

With self-managed VPS hosting, you handle all server management tasks — including LAMP stack setup, OS updates, security hardening, and performance tuning. Managed VPS hosting provides more assistance but less flexibility. Self-managed LAMP VPS hosting is best for developers who want full control and prefer configuring their own web server environment.

Yes. You get full root access and a dedicated IP address with every LAMP VPS hosting plan. This allows you to install and configure Apache, PHP, and MySQL, fine-tune your LAMP stack, and optimize performance for your websites and databases.

Start with your project’s memory, CPU, and storage requirements. If you plan to host multiple websites or resource-heavy LAMP applications, choose a plan with higher RAM and processing power. You can easily scale your LAMP hosting plan as your traffic and workloads grow.

Absolutely. With self-managed LAMP VPS hosting, you can host multiple websites, web apps, or client projects on a single server. Configure virtual hosts in Apache, set up separate databases, and manage everything from one environment.

Login to your control panel to upgrade your server. After scaling, ensure your LAMP stack — Apache, PHP, and MySQL — is tuned to use the added capacity for consistent performance and reliability.

If you need cPanel, check out our managed VPS. You can start with command-line management for maximum control and add cPanel later for an intuitive control panel that streamlines routine tasks. Adding cPanel does not remove root access; it simply provides a GUI layer to help you manage and maintain your server more efficiently.
