*📜 Plan description

Built for growing Australian businesses, WP Plus supports 3 WordPress sites, 50 GB SSD storage, unlimited bandwidth and databases, and 30 business email accounts. It inherits automatic WordPress updates, proactive security, daily backups, SSL, staging/cloning, and a free first-year domain on annual billing. The platform is engineered for speed and stability so you can run production, staging, and a development sandbox under one plan while keeping administration simple in cPanel.

The WordPress lineup emphasises uptime and protection with a 99.99% target, daily restore points, security hardening, and 24/7 support. Pricing is GST-inclusive AUD with discounted ‘as low as’ annual terms alongside standard monthly rates. A 30-day hosting money-back guarantee provides a safety net for first-term purchases (with standard exclusions).

📄 Editorial Review

Melbourne IT is an Australian brand founded in 1996 (originating from the University of Melbourne; co-founded by Peter Gerrand, Tom Dangthanh, and Barbara Sutton) and forms part of the ASX-listed Webcentral Group. They present themselves as a long-time, locally operated provider focused on small and medium-sized businesses.

Their catalog spans Shared Hosting (cPanel in Sydney), WordPress-optimised hosting, Managed VPS, Email hosting (including Microsoft 365 and custom business email), a website builder, domain registration, and SSL certificates. Traditional web design services are not offered anymore as of 2025.

Shared and WordPress plans emphasize ease of use (one-click apps, cPanel, WordPress Toolkit), Australian data residency, and marketed uptime targets up to 99.99% for WordPress. Managed VPS targets growing and high-traffic sites, highlighting enterprise-grade Dell hardware, daily backups, cPanel/WHM management, DDoS protection, and a 99.95% uptime target. The email portfolio ranges from very low-entry "Small" and "Work" tiers to Microsoft 365 Business, with security add-ons like spam filtering, MFA, antivirus, and MailGuard 365. Domains remain a core competency, with a long history as Australia’s first registrar and services for both SMBs and corporate portfolios.
