*📜 Plan description

The 60GB Capped Hosting plan is the largest shared hosting option in this group and is intended for heavier small business sites, content portals or customers hosting several websites and mailboxes on the same account.
It delivers 60GB of disk space with unlimited traffic, giving ample room for image rich sites, document libraries, long running blogs and multiple application installs without immediately bumping into storage ceilings.
The email component scales up to twenty 2GB mailboxes, which is enough to give individual mail accounts to a small team or to separate communication channels for departments and projects.
A free .co.za domain registration for the first year is included, and additional domains can easily be parked, redirected or hosted as separate sites using the DNS and multi site features.
Up to ten separate websites can be hosted concurrently, supported by five FTP users and fifty MySQL databases, so you can operate multiple brands, campaign sites or staging environments while keeping everything under one billing profile.
Subdomain limits also rise to fifty, giving you significant flexibility for microsites, regional sections or internal tools that share the same hosting infrastructure.
Backups and restores are automated on this tier, adding scheduled protection to manual exports so that there is always a recent restore point available if a site update or plugin change introduces problems.
Integrated security includes free SSL certificate provisioning for each hosted domain, malware scanning on the server to identify infected files and full DNS zone management for aligning mail, web and third party services.
The plan includes the Website Self Builder feature, which can be used on selected domains to create marketing or campaign microsites quickly with drag and drop tools while leaving other domains free to run more advanced CMS platforms.
This top tier shared hosting package is suitable for customers who want a single, well specified South African hosting account that can run multiple sites and mailboxes with room to grow before needing to consider a VPS or dedicated server.

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.

📄 Editorial Review

MWEB is one of South Africa’s oldest internet service providers, operating since 1997 and today positioned as a mass-market ISP that also offers a compact but complete web hosting portfolio. The brand focuses primarily on connectivity (fibre, LTE, wireless, voice), yet its hosting line is clearly aimed at individuals, freelancers and small businesses that want to register a domain, host a website and run email on the same account as their internet access. They operate as Mweb, a division of Internet Solutions Digital Proprietary Limited, with headquarters and core infrastructure based in Parow, Cape Town.

From a hosting perspective, the range is deliberately simple. Under the Web Hosting banner, MWEB sells shared hosting on Linux using cPanel, split into Capped Hosting and Uncapped Hosting families. They promise: packages designed for personal or business sites, with email included, a free SSL certificate, and on selected plans a free .co.za domain for the first year. Storage and traffic limits differ between capped tiers, while uncapped options focus more on removing traffic limits but still keep customers on multi-tenant shared servers. These plans are aimed at "typical" websites rather than heavy applications, with terms that explicitly discourage using shared hosting for backup storage or unusually resource-intensive workloads.

Domains are an important part of the offer. MWEB acts as registrar for a focused list of South African and generic TLDs, with pricing clearly published in South African rand per year. Popular choices include .co.za, .capetown, .joburg, .durban, .com, .org, .net, .africa, .biz, .online and .africa.com, with both registration and renewal fees listed per TLD. Domain names can be registered or transferred, and customers are reminded that a hosting plan is required to actually publish a website on that domain.

Beyond basic hosting and domains, MWEB offers a few notable value-adds. A Website SelfBuild / SitePad website builder is integrated into certain hosting products, allowing non-technical users to assemble sites from templates, with licensing explicitly tied to sites hosted on MWEB’s capped hosting platform. A Web Application Service in cPanel supports one-click deployment of common web apps. Email is covered via standard domain mailboxes attached to hosting plans and a separate Premium Mailbox product for users who need larger mailboxes or enhanced features. On top of that, MWEB resells several Internet Security and VPN products (such as Norton 360, NordVPN and others) with their own 30-day trial conditions, providing a bundle of security tools that can sit alongside hosting and connectivity in the same account.

Overall, this is not a specialist cloud or enterprise host but a general-purpose ISP offering shared web hosting, domains and email as part of a broader consumer internet portfolio. For customers who already use MWEB for fibre or LTE and want a basic cPanel site and domain billed on the same account, the proposition is convenient and familiar. Those who need VPS, dedicated servers or complex hosting architectures will need to look elsewhere, as MWEB has clearly chosen to stay in the shared hosting and email space rather than expand into higher-end infrastructure.
