Unlimited Hosting Policy

Last updated: 1 September 2026

Several of our plans advertise unlimited web space, bandwidth, databases or email accounts. We think you deserve a straight explanation of what that means, because no host has infinite hardware.

What unlimited means here

It means we do not set an arbitrary numeric cap and we do not bill you for going over one. The overwhelming majority of websites — business sites, blogs, portfolios, small shops — will never come close to a limit that matters, so charging by the gigabyte would only serve to generate surprise invoices.

What it does not mean

It is not a licence to use a shared hosting account as a file archive, a backup destination, a video streaming platform or a download mirror. Those workloads consume resources out of all proportion to the price of a shared plan, and they degrade the service for everyone else on the server.

Where the real limits are

• Inodes (file count). Very large numbers of tiny files slow down backups and filesystem operations for the whole server. We monitor this and will contact you well before it becomes a problem.
• CPU, memory and I/O. These are capped per account, and the cap is published in your control panel. This is the limit that actually matters.
• Database size. Extremely large individual databases affect backup and restore times.
• Email sending rate. Limited per hour to protect our IP reputation.

How we handle it

If your account is genuinely outgrowing shared hosting we will tell you what we are seeing, show you the numbers, and help you move to a VPS or cloud plan. We will not silently throttle you, and we will not delete your data without talking to you first.
