*📜 Plan description

Start with unlimited SSD-powered space and bandwidth for one unbeatable introductory rate. Power Plan lets you host as many domains, databases and email accounts as you like, bundles a free first-year domain, SiteLock Lite malware guard, Let’s Encrypt SSL on every hostname, weekly JetBackup snapshots (up to 3 GB each) and one-click Weebly & WordPress installers—an ideal springboard for blogs, portfolios or side-hustle stores that want freedom without fuss.

WebHostingPad’s shared platform combines unlimited resources with CloudLinux isolation, Softaculous 400-app library, US-based 24 × 7 support and a 30-day money-back guarantee. Engineers promise 99.9 % uptime from Midwest data centers, monitor servers round-the-clock and offer priority migration so you can focus on content rather than infrastructure.

📄 Editorial Review

Founded in 2005, WebHostingPad is a U.S.-based hosting provider that targets individuals, small businesses, and entry-level website owners seeking affordable and straightforward hosting solutions. The company highlights its numerous industry awards earned over the years and promotes itself as a provider that balances low prices with a reasonable feature set.

The company’s hosting portfolio is relatively modest compared to larger competitors but still covers the essentials. Customers can choose between shared hosting, WordPress hosting, and VPS hosting (delivered through their sister brand, VPS Depot). They also offer domain registration and a selection of site-building and e-commerce tools. However, WebHostingPad does not provide dedicated servers, reseller hosting, or cloud solutions, which may limit scalability for advanced users or larger businesses.

A key selling point is the inclusion of several free features across plans, such as a domain name (first year), unlimited professional email accounts, SSL certificates, SSD database storage, site migration, and malware scanning with quarantine. Their hosting packages are also equipped with tools like the Weebly site builder, Softaculous one-click installer, and built-in e-commerce storefront integrations. These features make it appealing to beginners who want an easy way to get started.

For experienced users, the offerings may feel somewhat limited. While shared and WordPress hosting plans include basic developer tools like Perl, Python, Ruby on Rails, and cron jobs, there’s less variety in higher-tier services compared to major competitors such as HostGator or Bluehost. Still, for users looking for a budget-oriented host with simple setup tools, WebHostingPad positions itself as a practical choice.

😠 Webhostingpad tries to force their customers into more expensive hosting plans other wise they will shut down your account.
If you value your business and time, look else where for a hosting provider.

😠 New servers (with no cpanel) mixed with old servers. Migration of hosted pages is a big piece of shit, somethings are not working.
