Web hosting FAQs

UK web hosting questions, answered plainly.

What is included in your cheap web hosting plans?

Our web hosting packages include Plesk Obsidian, SiteJet Website Builder, WordPress Toolkit, Let's Encrypt SSL, Imunify protection, email, application installers and backup tools. These cheap web hosting services share the same core tools across every plan, with different allowances for websites, storage, mailboxes and databases. Compare the plan limits.

Can I build a WordPress website without coding?

Yes. Our affordable web hosting includes WordPress Toolkit for installing and managing WordPress, plus SiteJet for building with templates and a visual editor. You can also upload your own files. This gives you website hosting UK businesses can use for a first site or an existing project, with room to choose the building method that suits you. Compare website-building routes. Read the WordPress installation guide.

Which UK web hosting plan lets me run several websites?

Basic supports up to 3 websites and Professional up to 15. Unlimited has no listed website limit, subject to account resources and fair use. Our cheap UK web hosting lets you manage separate files, SSL certificates, email and databases for each domain within your plan limits. Check database allowances too: Basic includes 1 and Professional includes 5, so the website limit is not the number of separate WordPress installations you can run. Compare multi-site plans.

Does cheap website hosting include email for my domain?

Yes. Every UK hosting plan includes domain email managed through Plesk. Micro includes 1 mailbox, Basic 50 and Professional 250. Unlimited has no listed mailbox limit, subject to resources and fair use. You can create addresses for your hosted domains without buying a separate email service for those included mailboxes. Compare email capacity.

Can I get cheap hosting with an SSL certificate included?

Yes. Every plan lets you issue Let's Encrypt SSL certificates through Plesk without an additional certificate charge. When comparing cheap web hosting UK providers offer, check whether SSL is included and how it is managed, as well as the advertised hosting price.

What backup options come with your web hosting services?

Plesk Backup Manager lets you create, schedule and restore your own backups. UKC also keeps daily server-side copies, with restores requested through support. When comparing web hosting services UK providers offer, check both the backup arrangements and the restore process so you know how to recover your website. Visit the Support Centre.

Is your low cost hosting fully managed?

No. We provide low cost web hosting UK customers can manage through Plesk. UKC maintains the servers, hosting platform, security systems and server-side backups. You remain responsible for website content, applications, updates, passwords and your own backups unless a separate managed service is agreed. Ask UKC a hosting question.

Can I move my existing website to UKC?

Yes. You can use a domain registered with UKC or another provider, upload your website files and import databases through Plesk. Before moving to a new UK web host, check compatibility and plan the transfer of your website and email. Ask support before changing DNS for a live business website. Explore UKC domain options. Read the website migration guide.

How should I compare web hosting deals and VAT?

Compare the billing period, included features, capacity and total payable, not just the headline price. Our prices are monthly and exclude VAT, with VAT-inclusive totals shown alongside each plan. The order summary confirms applicable VAT and the complete amount before payment. The cheapest hosting option for a small site may not have enough capacity for several websites. Compare hosting prices.

Where do I manage my website hosting and invoices?

Use the UKC Client Area to manage your services and invoices, then open Plesk from your hosting service to manage websites, email, databases, SSL, backups and resource use. You can check your usage there before deciding whether you need a larger plan. Open the Client Area.

Is your web hosting in UK datacentres?

Yes. Our hosting servers are located in secure UK datacentres. If you are comparing web hosting UK businesses can use for a local audience, consider server location alongside storage, database allowances, security tools and the support available to you. Compare hosting features.

How do I choose the cheapest web hosting for my needs?

Start with the number of websites, databases and mailboxes you need. Micro is our lowest-priced plan at £4.95 a month plus VAT (£5.94 including VAT), with 1 website, 1 GB storage, 1 mailbox and 1 database. The cheapest web host by headline price is not always the best fit once you compare included tools and capacity. Choose the smallest plan that covers your requirements. Find a suitable hosting plan.

Choose the capacity your websites need.

Start with one website or bring several together in a single Plesk account.
