Shared Hosting

Shared Hosting is a web hosting solution where multiple websites share resources on a single server, making it a cost-effective option for businesses with moderate traffic levels. With Shared Hosting, your website resides alongside other sites on the same server infrastructure, while the hosting provider manages all server maintenance, security updates, and hardware management.

Shared hosting is the right fit if you’re launching a new site, running a business site with predictable traffic, or want a fully managed environment without the overhead of a VPS or dedicated server.

Shared Hosting can be the ideal starting point for your business if:

• You need a hosting solution that is managed: Our team of skilled systems administrators will take care of the server, hardware, and other essential components so that you can focus on growing your business. You also have access to a web-based control panel, cPanel, for easy site administration.
• You want reliable, real human support at your fingertips: InMotion’s Shared Hosting includes 24/7 access to our expert support team, known for fast response times and hands-on guidance. Whether you’re launching your first site or managing growth, we’re here to help every step of the way.
• You are in the initial phase of launching your web presence: Shared Hosting is ideal if you’re in the early stages of establishing your business and don’t expect high website traffic.

In summary, InMotion Shared Hosting is an ideal starting point for professionals building a strong, reliable online presence. With built-in performance, expert-led support, and a seamless path to scale, our shared hosting gives you room to grow with confidence. As your needs evolve, explore our full range of hosting solutions, including WordPress, VPS, and Dedicated Servers, backed by the same commitment to uptime, service, and growth.

The number of websites you can host on your Shared Hosting plan varies depending on the plan you choose. Launch plans include 2 websites, Power plans support up to 10, and Pro plans cover up to 40 websites. The Pro plan also includes WHM access and multi-account isolation, which makes it the practical choice for agencies hosting client sites.

The Pro plan is built for exactly this use case. It supports up to 40 websites across up to 4 isolated cPanel accounts, includes WHM access for account-level management, and comes with a dedicated IP. That account isolation matters: it keeps client sites separated for both security and performance, without requiring a full reseller or VPS setup. For agencies managing a moderate number of client sites, it covers the core operational requirements cleanly.

NGINX is a software that is based on the Open Source License System and we are able to use it and modify it to fit our customer’s needs without forcing our customers to purchase a license.

InMotion operates data centers in Virginia, California, and Amsterdam, Netherlands. During setup, you choose the location closest to your primary audience. Data center proximity can have a noticeable impact on the quality of your web hosting experience including speed, latency, infrastructure, and even SEO.

Three worth knowing before you buy:

• Shared resources. CPU, RAM, and bandwidth are distributed across accounts on the same server. A traffic spike from a neighboring site can create latency for yours.
• Shared IP address. Your site shares an IP with others on the server. If a neighboring site gets flagged for spam, that can affect email deliverability for your domain. The Pro plan includes a dedicated IP, which eliminates this.
• Software restrictions. Shared environments have limits on what applications and scripts you can run. If your site requires custom server configurations, a VPS is a better fit.

InMotion’s shared hosting is backed by a 99.99% credit-backed uptime SLA, 24/7 security monitoring, and infrastructure we own and operate directly. That last part matters: because we manage the hardware and network ourselves, security and performance issues can be addressed at the infrastructure level without routing through third parties.

VPS Hosting is the natural next step. With a VPS, your resources are no longer shared; you get dedicated CPU, RAM, and storage, along with root access and more control over your server environment.

InMotion’s migrations team can handle the transfer using a cPanel backup, and 24/7 human support is available throughout the process. All website migration services are available via our migrations team.

If you choose to transfer your website, we have a comprehensive support center with extensive step-by-step articles.
