📄 Editorial Review

WebHero Review — long-standing registrar with basic hosting for small sites


Founded in 1994, WebHero is both a hosting provider and an ICANN-accredited domain registrar. With more than 50,000 sites on its platform and email services for roughly 500,000 users, they lean on longevity and simplicity rather than a sprawling product catalog.

What they offer

  • Shared Hosting – entry plans for a single site up to packages that allow about 100 websites per account. Plans advertise "guaranteed speed," but there’s no "unlimited websites" tier that many rivals include.
  • Domains – registration and management as an accredited registrar.
  • SSL certificates – add-on security for hosted domains.

There’s no VPS, cloud, or dedicated server line here, so scaling paths are limited to larger shared plans.

Pricing & refund posture


Prices tend to land higher than many budget hosts offering comparable shared features. Refund terms are strict:
  • Domains: no money-back, and registrations can’t be altered after submission.
  • Security plans: include a 30-day money-back guarantee.
  • Most other products: effectively non-refundable.
  • Auto-renewals can be charged up to 30 days before the renewal date unless cancelled in advance.
  • After 90 days, any eligible refund is issued as account credit, not back to the original card.

If cost flexibility and liberal trials matter, these policies are a notable drawback.

Uptime commitment


WebHero references a 99.9% uptime target (not prominently documented across the site). It’s a familiar figure for shared hosting, but clearer, current SLA language would help set expectations.

Data center & control panel


The company is based in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, and uses cPanel for account management—straightforward for anyone who’s used mainstream shared hosting before.

Support options


Help is available via phone, email, tickets, and live chat, with a searchable knowledge base for self-service. Social channels (Facebook/Twitter) are also active. For small sites that just need occasional guidance, the mix is adequate.

Who WebHero fits

  • Individuals and small businesses wanting a long-running provider, domain registration, and simple cPanel hosting in one place.
  • Customers who don’t need VPS/dedicated servers, staging fleets, or advanced DevOps tooling.

It’s not aimed at enterprise or high-growth projects that require containerization, autoscaling, or granular SLAs.

The fine print to watch

  • Limited product ladder (no VPS/dedicated upgrades).
  • Tighter refund rules than many competitors.
  • Uptime and policy details are scattered, which can feel opaque for buyers comparing providers.
