Questions

Web hosting questions

What is cPanel web hosting?

cPanel is a web-based control panel that lets you manage your hosting account through an easy-to-use dashboard instead of complicated server commands. From cPanel you can create and manage email accounts, install WordPress, manage domains, access website files, create backups, manage databases and install SSL certificates. Every Squirrel Hosting account includes full cPanel access.

Where are your servers, and what do they run on?

Our servers are based in South Africa, which means faster loading times for visitors in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal and the rest of the country. Unlike many hosting companies that simply resell third-party services, we manage and maintain our own VPS hosting environment, running LiteSpeed web servers, NVMe storage, CloudLinux, cPGuard and Imunify360.

Which hosting package should I choose?

It depends on the size of your website and how many email accounts you need. Our Starter (R99/month) and Lite (R150/month) packages, both paid annually only, and Basic (R205/month) suit smaller websites and are not for e-commerce. For an online store, choose Power Hosting (R299/month) or higher. Compare everything on our Web Hosting and WordPress Hosting pages, or ask us and we’ll recommend a package.

Do I get a free domain with my hosting?

Yes. A FREE .co.za domain is included with annual billing on our web hosting packages, when it is used as the primary domain for the hosting account. The domain is renewed annually at the normal price. If you cancel your hosting before 12 months have passed, the registration fee for the free domain becomes payable.

Is there a contract?

No. Our hosting packages have no contracts. You can cancel at any time from your Client Area. See Account Cancellation in our Terms & Conditions for how cancellations work.

What uptime do you guarantee?

We guarantee that our network of servers will be available 99.9% of the time in any given month, excluding scheduled maintenance. See our Uptime Guarantee for what is covered.

Can you move my existing website to Squirrel Hosting?

Yes. Our team handles the technical side of migrating your website from your current provider. A once-off migration fee of R350 applies to manual (non-cPanel) migrations. Please keep your previous hosting account active and paid up until the migration has been checked. Emails stored only on a device (for example POP3 mailboxes) cannot be migrated by us. See Website Migrations.
