Get SiteGround’s highly-rated WordPress hosting at its lowest first-year rate.

No — SiteGround distributes discounts through partner links rather than codes you type in. So, when you sign up through the link on this page, the promotional first-year price shows up automatically on the plan selection screen.

SiteGround ties the advertised rate to a first-year prepayment on a 12-month term. After that, you pay the standard renewal rate, which runs notably higher — for example, StartUp’s rate roughly sextuples at renewal. In short, it’s a real cost to plan for, not a hidden fee.

Yes — if you prepay for a longer initial term, such as 24 months, you generally bring the renewal rate down compared to a 12-month term, though it means a larger upfront payment. Because of that trade-off, it helps to compare the total cost over a few years rather than just the monthly headline price.

StartUp covers a single site with modest storage needs. Meanwhile, most reviewers point to GrowBig as the best balance of price and features, mainly because it adds unlimited websites and a built-in staging environment. For developers and agencies, GoGeek goes further still with Git integration and priority support.

Yes — SiteGround offers a 30-day money-back guarantee on shared hosting plans. However, terms can differ on cloud or reseller hosting, so it’s worth checking the specific policy for the plan you choose.

Yes. SiteGround provides a free migration plugin for moving an existing WordPress site over. Alternatively, paid assisted migration is available if you’d rather have it handled for you.

No — shared hosting plans also support other CMS platforms and general websites. That said, WordPress is where SiteGround’s caching and staging tools are most tailored, which is why it’s most often recommended specifically for WordPress.
