Shield City Hosting Packages

Our hosting packages are pretty simple. Depending on how much space you need and bandwidth determines the package. If we notice your bandwidth is consistently running to the limit each month, you will be asked to upgrade to the next package. This is actually a good problem to have, meaning that your site is receiving lots of traffic.

1yr hosting/25 plan

This package does not include your domain name, that can be added on if you need to transfer or register a domain name. This is a good package for a Joomla or other CMS site that doesn't have high volume of traffic. It includes unlimited SQL databases, unlimited POP email accounts and 200mg space/2,000mg bandwidth monthly.

1yr hosting/50 plan

This is a great package if you are hosting a robust site with content management systems like Joomla! installed. Unlimited POP Email accounts, and unlimited SQL databases. 400mg of space and 4,000mg of bandwidth monthly. Includes domain registration.

1yr hosting/75 plan

Need bandwidth and lots of room? This is the package for you.
