*📜 Plan description

Host up to 5 WordPress sites with 50 GB storage, a free domain (1-year+ terms), 5×10 GB mailboxes and a 1 GB database. You keep the same protections—unlimited SSL, DDoS mitigation, automatic malware scans, email AV/anti-spam—and platform speedups like autoscaling, CDN and edge caching. WP tooling covers Auto Core Updates, staging, management dashboards, daily backups and one-click restore so you can test changes safely and roll back fast. Ideal for freelancers or small teams managing a handful of blogs, landing pages or stores.

Common WordPress hosting benefits span 99.9% uptime, 30-day money-back guarantee and round-the-clock support. Each plan includes daily malware scans & removal, site migration, a free web acceleration suite, StackCP control with FTP/DNS/backups and an app installer. CDN delivery plus edge caching reduce time-to-first-byte worldwide. Operations stay straightforward without separate server care, and upgrades preserve the same workflow for SSL, backups and staging as your portfolio expands.

📄 Editorial Review

WestHost (founded in 1998 by Chris Russell, which is still the CEO), is a long-running hosting brand within THG Ingenuity (formerly UK2 Group acquisition in 2008). They position themselves as a straightforward provider of secure, cost-effective web services with a focus on entry-level and SMB use cases.

The current catalog centers on shared web hosting, email hosting, WordPress hosting, domain registration, a website builder and a paid security clean-up service.

Shared hosting highlights include a free domain, free mailboxes, and free wildcard SSL; higher tiers advertise unlimited disk space, unlimited MySQL databases, and unlimited websites. WordPress plans layer a guided installer and the broader plugin/theme ecosystem on top of the same infrastructure. The website builder line targets non-technical users with bundled domain, email, page limits by tier, and eCommerce features at the top end.

Email hosting remains a clear emphasis, offered in two tiers (Personal and Professional) with POP/IMAP, mobile sync, webmail, spam/virus protection, and optional mailbox storage upgrades. Domains are actively marketed with aggressive first-year promos and useful extras like DNS control, email forwarding, and a free one-page site.

Historically they described VPS options (SSD, multiple Linux/FreeBSD choices), but those services—along with dedicated/bare metal—have been folded into THG’s broader Ingenuity Cloud Services. Public activity on the WestHost brand has slowed (e.g., older blog/social timelines), suggesting the brand now primarily maintains core shared, email, WordPress, domains, and builder offerings.
