MWeb 15GB Hosting, ZAR 129.00/mo. on Linux Shared

The 15GB Capped Hosting plan is positioned as the first fully featured option in the range, combining more generous storage with bundled value such as a free domain and website builder access for growing sites.
It provides 15GB of disk space and unlimited monthly traffic, which comfortably accommodates multi page small business sites, small ecommerce catalogues or blogs with a sizeable archive of images and attachments.
The package includes five 2GB email mailboxes, allowing separate addresses for sales, info, support and individual staff members while keeping per mailbox storage reasonable.
A free .co.za domain registration for one year is included, which reduces upfront costs when you are launching a new South African website and ensures that the domain and hosting are provisioned together.
One primary site can be hosted on the account and is supported by one FTP user and five MySQL databases, giving flexibility to run a main site plus test or staging instances without needing separate hosting.
Subdomain capacity remains at five, making it easy to carve out dedicated spaces such as shop.example.co.za or members.example.co.za within the same plan while still using the same SSL and DNS configuration.
Backups and restores are performed manually, so you decide when to generate backup archives and whether to keep copies locally or on another storage service, with tools surfaced through cPanel.
Security is strengthened through included SSL certificates for every hosted domain and free malware scanning on the account, helping to protect login forms, contact forms and admin panels from interception and known threats.
Customers on this tier gain access to the Website Self Builder feature, a template driven site builder that simplifies creating and publishing a professional looking site if you prefer not to install your own CMS or work directly with code.
DNS zone management, redirects and pointing options remain available, and the plan is a good fit when you are launching a first business website that needs a combination of mailboxes, domain registration and a user friendly site building experience.

Across the Capped Hosting range this provider offers shared Linux hosting on servers located in South Africa, using the familiar cPanel control panel and unlimited traffic on every plan so visitor numbers are not limited by a fixed bandwidth quota.
All accounts include email hosting with 2GB mailboxes, free SSL certificates for HTTPS, built in malware scanning, DNS zone management and tools for redirects and pointing domains, giving small businesses the essentials they need to run a secure website and professional email from one place.
Selected packages include a free .co.za domain for the first year, which makes it easy to register a local domain and have it configured automatically for the hosting space without extra setup fees.
The service is billed monthly in South African Rand with prices quoted inclusive of the standard 15 percent VAT, and payments can be handled through card based billing on the customer portal so subscriptions renew automatically.
Customers can contact support via telephone, email, online help centre and live chat, with technical teams available around the clock to help with DNS records, mail settings, SSL issues and other common hosting administration questions.
The platform is aimed at personal sites, blogs and small business websites that want reliable South African based hosting close to their local audience, and the plans are structured so that it is easy to upgrade disk space, email capacity or feature sets as a website grows.
Frequently asked questions explain that a hosting product is simply the online space where the files, images, video, text and forms that make up a website are stored, that larger or more complex sites need more disk space, that customers will also need a domain name for visitors to reach the site, and that it is possible to upgrade or downgrade the hosting package later if requirements change.
