*📜 Plan description

Managed WordPress plan billed annually that includes one-click installation, unlimited storage, unlimited bandwidth, free daily backups, full theme and plugin support and free Let’s Encrypt SSL. Ideal for a single blog or website where simplicity is key and the provider handles installation and ongoing maintenance. It is beginner-friendly but flexible, letting you select a domain and launch quickly without managing cPanel, software updates or server-level configuration. The plan’s unlimited storage and bandwidth are intended for typical website needs under fair use, not bulk file distribution. If you later require FTP access, custom stacks, or more control, you can pair a standard web hosting plan or move to cloud hosting. This plan is designed to keep setup friction low while preserving the extensibility that makes WordPress popular.

Across Name.com’s hosting lineup, services are integrated with domain and SSL management in a single account. Support is available 24x7 via live chat and helpdesk, hosting purchases include a 30-day money-back guarantee, and WordPress hosting emphasizes an easy start, automatic backups and routine maintenance handled for you so you can focus on building content rather than administering servers.

📄 Editorial Review

Name.com (founded in 2003 by William Bill Mushkin and now owned by Identity Digital) is an ICANN-accredited registrar that also sells straightforward hosting, email and SSL. They position themselves as a simple, one-login place to buy a domain and add basic hosting or cloud resources, with localization in multiple languages and support for several currencies.
Their portfolio centers on:

Shared Hosting – cPanel-based Linux hosting with automated backups, free SSL, email accounts, and standard developer tooling (PHP 7.x, MySQL, Git, cron).
WordPress Hosting – a single, entry plan with one-click setup, unlimited storage/bandwidth claims, and Let’s Encrypt SSL.
Cloud Hosting – resold DigitalOcean Basic Droplets, managed from the Name.com interface with 1-click apps and selectable global regions (Amsterdam, Bangalore, Frankfurt, London, New York, San Francisco, Singapore, Toronto).
Email – Titan Email for custom-domain mailboxes and Google Workspace (with Gemini AI features) for productivity suites.
Website Builder – resold Wix services with templates, drag-and-drop editing, mobile view, and SEO tools.
SSL Certificates – choices from standard DV to EV, with budget Comodo DV options.

Strategically, they lean heavily on reputable third parties (DigitalOcean for cloud, Wix for sites, Titan/Google for email) while keeping registrar functions and cPanel shared hosting in-house. Recent history shows a trimmed hosting lineup (e.g., WordPress consolidated to a single plan) and periodic flash sales to drive acquisition. On the community side, Name.Gives channels quarterly donations to nonprofits, with $50,000+ contributed since 2017.
