BlackSun Basic, CAD 7.79/mo. on Linux Shared

The Basic shared hosting plan is designed for individuals and small businesses that need a simple, reliable home for a single website without paying for resources they will not use. It includes 25GB of SSD storage, which is enough capacity for a typical brochure site, portfolio, blog or small online catalog with room for images, databases and email. Bandwidth is set at 50GB per month, making it well suited to low and moderate traffic projects that receive a steady flow of visitors rather than very heavy spikes. The plan supports hosting for 1 primary website and includes a free domain registration or transfer for the first year, so new customers can register or move a .ca, .com, .net, .org, .info, .biz or .me domain without an extra registration bill in the first term. You can create up to 5 domain aliases and 5 subdomains, 5 FTP accounts and 5 MySQL databases, which is sufficient for a main application, a staging copy and a few supporting tools. Email features include 25 IMAP mailboxes with a 50MB attachment size limit and a handful of mailing lists, enough for small teams to keep in touch and share files directly through their hosting. Daily backups and a free SSL certificate are built in, and one-click WordPress installation means a new site can be up and running in minutes without manual uploads or command-line work. Pricing starts from a low monthly cost, with one-, two- and three-year pre-paid terms offering 15%, 25% and 35% discounts respectively, making it easy to reduce long-term costs once you are comfortable with the platform.

All shared hosting plans run on Canadian servers using SSD storage and CloudLinux OS, providing resource isolation and a familiar cPanel interface for day-to-day management. Each plan includes full daily backups powered by Veeam so that site files and databases can be restored if something goes wrong, along with free SSL certificates so every domain can be served over HTTPS without additional license fees. Multi-layer security combines integrated server firewalls, drive-level encryption, dynamic IP blocking, dual firewalls, reinforced DDoS protection, virus scanning and brute-force defense to help keep sites stable and safe. Customers have access to DNS management, SSH/SFTP on supported plans, Softaculous one-click script installer, one-click WordPress, and a full suite of visitor statistics including Webalizer, AWStats, Analog and access to raw logs for deeper analysis. Bandwidth on the higher tiers is described as unlimited within reasonable use and subject to an acceptable use policy, which is intended to support the typical needs of small and medium-sized sites rather than abusive traffic patterns. Canadian technical support is available by phone, ticket and other channels to assist with plan changes, DNS pointing, email configuration and common application issues, and new hosting accounts are usually provisioned within minutes so projects can go live quickly. A 30-day money-back guarantee on web-hosting plans gives new customers time to test performance, features and support, while tiered pre-paid discounts reward those who are ready to commit for longer terms.
