Overall Satisfaction with SiteGround Web Hosting
SiteGround is privately owned and was founded in 2004. It’s based in Bulgaria, where it has two offices. It also has an office in Madrid, Spain. SiteGround’s website promotes different types of hosting; it offers dedicated, cloud, and VPS plans, in addition to shared hosting and WordPress. Customers benefit from the basic CloudFlare CDN plan, free SSL certificates, and free daily backups of their website data on the server. Unlike some hosts, it has made sure that its shared plans are packed with features.
So far so good. But what is SiteGround really good at? Ask any customer — like me — and support will be top of their list. From experience, I’ve also found that uptime is impressive.

Pros
- You get a number of page views as a guide to your bandwidth, and a fixed amount of disk space on the server. So you know what you have to work with. No hazy promises of “unlimited” resources.
- If you pay more, you’re allocated a server with fewer accounts, so there’s less chance you’ll be slowed down by your neighbors.
- Its self-help material is pretty good — close to InMotion Hosting for knowledgebase quality.
- SiteGround tackles slow speeds from all angles, using SSD storage, Nginx, SuperCacher, CloudFlare CDN, and HHVM.
Cons
- Plans don't offer a lot of storage, bandwidth.
- With SiteGround, you pay a bit more for a bit less in the way of technical features, but the solid security, customer service, and tutorials make this Web host extremely friendly for small businesses and new webmasters.
