AvaHost SB-Standard, $ 4.95/mo. on Website Builder

The SB-Standard plan is the most popular package in AvaHost’s website builder lineup, providing a balanced mix of resources and flexibility for personal or small business sites. It offers 5 GB (5 000 MB) of SSD storage and 50 GB of monthly bandwidth so you can host richer content, images and media without worrying about space. Up to 5 websites can be hosted under a single account, and you can choose from 200 professionally designed templates with the RVSiteBuilder interface. The builder uses a point-and-click drag-and-drop methodology so you do not need coding skills, and you can modify your sites at any time, publish with one click and see changes instantly. The plan includes Imunify malware protection, automatic daily backups, a free domain name and full access to all builder features. You can import existing websites into the editor, enable online store functionality, add plugins and extensions, create registration-only pages and manage menus and sub-menus. A 60-day money-back guarantee covers your purchase and you can save by choosing a longer billing term. Support is available around the clock via phone, live chat, email and help desk, and the price per month is lowest when paying two years in advance.

Beyond the increased resource limits, the SB-Standard plan shares the robust feature set common to all AvaSiteBuilder packages. You have the ability to create an unlimited number of pages and categories, optimize layouts for different screen sizes, back up your projects locally and customize every element of your site including images, links, fonts and menus. The builder permits inserting third-party code (such as advertising or analytics scripts), creating private pages for members, designing multi-level navigation menus, applying custom styles site-wide, editing meta-tags and page titles for SEO, resizing images by dragging their corners, integrating social media buttons and renaming pages for clarity. The WYSIWYG editor tab provides a familiar word-processor-like interface for content editing, while other tabs offer components, themes and publishing options. As a hosting customer you benefit from a free Comodo SSL certificate, unlimited MySQL databases, support for PHP 5–7, CGI-Bin, Perl and Python, Zend Optimizer and IonCube loaders, multiple FTP accounts, an online file manager, password-protected directories, WAP/WML support, server-side includes, visitor statistics and a feature-rich cPanel control panel. Additional tools include .htaccess management, cron job scheduling, phpMyAdmin, MIME type editor, raw and error log access, GD/cURL/ImageMagick libraries, an error page editor and optional SSH access and dedicated IP addresses. Email services provide POP3/SMTP, webmail, autoresponders, forwarders, mailing lists and anti-spam filtering. AvaHost has more than twenty years’ experience, offers a 99 % uptime guarantee, performs daily backups and provides 24×7 support via phone, chat, email and ticket system. You can add services such as domain registration, extra storage, additional website accounts or dedicated IPs for an additional fee. The SB-Standard plan thus delivers a comprehensive environment that combines professional site builder tools with reliable hosting and support, making it well-suited for individuals and businesses that need multiple sites and more room to grow.
