Upcoming Hosting Plan Changes (Effective 1 September 2025)

Welcome! This article walks you through what’s changing on our hosting plans, why we’re making the update, and most importantly, what it means for you.

Why are prices changing?

Running a fast, secure infrastructure in South Africa gets a little more expensive every year. Instead of cutting corners, we’ve chosen to invest in:

  • All‑SSD servers for snappier page loads.

  • Daily JetBackup snapshots & ImunifyAV malware scans on every paid plan.

  • Additional capacity for future growth.

To keep those improvements sustainable, we need to adjust tariffs for new sign‑ups from 1 September 2025.

How to keep today’s price a bit longer

  1. Pay yearly in advance before 31 August 2025; your current rate is locked until August 2026.

  2. Refer a friend in Sep–Dec 2025. Each successful referral earns you R25 hosting credit (no limits).
