Pros
- Very affordable starting plans, good for budget projects.
- Free domain (first year), free SSL certificate, and free domain-privacy included in many plans.
- Easy-to-use control panel and good for beginners.
- Unmetered bandwidth on shared plans (so you’re less likely to hit traffic limits).
- Free website migration for many new customers.
Cons
- Performance (speed, uptime) is average; not as strong as premium hosts.
- Introductory pricing is low, but renewal rates tend to increase.
- Lower-tier plans have limited resources (storage, CPU, etc) which may not suit high-traffic websites.
- No phone support — only live chat and tickets in many cases.
- Advanced features (staging, high-end performance tools) may be missing unless you upgrade.
