Your equipment (for example, SSDs) and software solutions (for example, SG Optimizer and HTTP \/ 2) contribute to above-average performance. Also, all <a class=\"btl_autolink_hyperlink\"  href=\"https:\/\/giovanirodriguez.dev\/go\/siteground\"   >SiteGround<\/a> plans offer a caching system for your dynamic content, which greatly improves speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"tw-target-text\"><a class=\"btl_autolink_hyperlink\"  href=\"https:\/\/giovanirodriguez.dev\/go\/siteground\"   >SiteGround<\/a> is undoubtedly one of the fastest and most consistent hosting providers. Its load times are fantastic, being 716 ms, an amount above average.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">An intuitive and easy-to-use system<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"tw-target-text\">In addition to being easy to use, the system is also well integrated with many of its functions. Depending on your level of expertise, <a class=\"btl_autolink_hyperlink\"  href=\"https:\/\/giovanirodriguez.dev\/go\/siteground\"   >SiteGround<\/a> adapts to offer you the tools you need to work with ease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Exceptional support and assistance<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>In terms of customer service, the support team is available 24\/7, offering assistance via online chat, phone, or email. Furthermore, the courses it offers are of a very high standard and its support material and guides are detailed and easy to understand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Excellent Uptime<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"tw-target-text\"><a class=\"btl_autolink_hyperlink\"  href=\"https:\/\/giovanirodriguez.dev\/go\/siteground\"   >SiteGround<\/a>'s availability figures are among the best. <a class=\"btl_autolink_hyperlink\"  href=\"https:\/\/giovanirodriguez.dev\/go\/siteground\"   >SiteGround<\/a>'s 12-month average uptime is 99.98%, with just 73 minutes of total downtime for the entire year. This guarantees 24\/7 operation, being of great benefit to companies by keeping their visitors happy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Server location<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>With <a class=\"btl_autolink_hyperlink\"  href=\"https:\/\/giovanirodriguez.dev\/go\/siteground\"   >SiteGround<\/a>, you will have the option of choosing between servers located all over the world; Asia, Australia, America, and Europe, which is a great plus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Advanced features<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>A lot of hosting providers do not have some of the features that are offered by <a class=\"btl_autolink_hyperlink\"  href=\"https:\/\/giovanirodriguez.dev\/go\/siteground\"   >SiteGround<\/a>. As an example, you can use staging, your own cache, or Git repositories. Alternatively, you can integrate with CloudFlare or Let'sEncrypt (SSL), on a free basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Unlimited traffic<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Your website's traffic is not measured by them. In theory, you can receive as many visits are generated without any problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Collaborations<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>You will have the ability to add additional users to your <a class=\"btl_autolink_hyperlink\"  href=\"https:\/\/giovanirodriguez.dev\/go\/siteground\"   >SiteGround<\/a> account so they will have access to the websites you manage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Security<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"tw-target-text\"><a class=\"btl_autolink_hyperlink\"  href=\"https:\/\/giovanirodriguez.dev\/go\/siteground\"   >SiteGround<\/a> isolates all accounts, so if you have a vulnerable IP neighbor, it will not be affected. Also, you can use Let's Encrypt to add SSL encryption on any plan. Additionally, you can enable 2-factor identification to give your account additional security and use the WordPress-centric security plugin they maintain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cons<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Price<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"tw-target-text\"><a class=\"btl_autolink_hyperlink\"  href=\"https:\/\/giovanirodriguez.dev\/go\/siteground\"   >SiteGround<\/a> offers good value for money, but on the other hand, it is certainly in the upper-middle range. It has several packages depending on what you need, but their prices range from $ 14.99 USD to $ 39.99 USD per month in the renewal without counting the extra resources they offer.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sitesource101.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/siteground-web-hosting-plans.png\" alt=\"SiteGround Prices 2021\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sitesource101.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/siteground-web-hosting-plans.png\" alt=\"SiteGround Prices 2021\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">No monthly billing<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"tw-target-text\">The minimum subscription period is 1 year. This is a factor that can be restrictive for customers since their rates could be easier to control if they were paid month to month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Professional migrations<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>In the event that you would like a <a class=\"btl_autolink_hyperlink\"  href=\"https:\/\/giovanirodriguez.dev\/go\/siteground\"   >SiteGround<\/a> agent to handle your website migration, you will be required to pay $30. Fortunately, you can use a free plugin that allows you to migrate your WordPress site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Database size<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>It's important to note that each <a class=\"btl_autolink_hyperlink\"  href=\"https:\/\/giovanirodriguez.dev\/go\/siteground\"   >SiteGround<\/a> plan has a maximum database size for the plans. This is a problem that will only affect larger sites. If your site grows beyond 40GB, you will definitely have to switch to the more expensive cloud hosting plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final thoughts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"tw-target-text\">Clearly, in the case of <a class=\"btl_autolink_hyperlink\"  href=\"https:\/\/giovanirodriguez.dev\/go\/siteground\"   >SiteGround<\/a>, the pros far outweigh the cons. The way in which they have positioned themselves as one of the best web hosting sites speaks for itself since everything they promise is testable and verifiable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"tw-target-text\"><strong>So do they meet expectations?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"tw-target-text\"><em>Definitely.<\/em> So if you are looking to have one of the best upload speeds, the best technology, and fast and effective service, I definitely recommend <a class=\"btl_autolink_hyperlink\"  href=\"https:\/\/giovanirodriguez.dev\/go\/siteground\"   >SiteGround<\/a>.
