Shared Web Hosting FAQ
Everything You Need to Know

How fast is Web Design Labs shared hosting?
Our hosting runs on LiteSpeed servers with LSCache and HTTP/3 — up to 40× faster than Apache for WordPress and PHP applications. All plans include SSD storage. Our SA data centre in Johannesburg delivers the lowest latency to South African visitors.
Can I host multiple websites on one plan?
Yes. Standard and Professional plans allow multiple domains and sub-domains, each with its own email accounts, databases and files — all managed from a single DirectAdmin control panel.
Is the hosting POPIA compliant?
Yes. All Web Design Labs servers are physically located in South Africa and operate under POPIA requirements. Your customer data stays in South Africa.
What is the difference between Starter, Standard and Professional?
Starter suits personal sites (250 MB storage, 2 emails). Standard is best for growing SA businesses (5 GB SSD, 50 emails, free .co.za domain on annual plans). Professional covers high-traffic and multi-site setups (unlimited storage, emails and databases, priority support).
Do you offer a money-back guarantee?
Yes — all plans come with a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you are not satisfied within the first 30 days, we will refund you in full.
