Conclusion
Siteground has some of the best speed tech for delivering lighting fast website hosting on shared servers. However, their plans renew at pretty expensive prices after your initial period (about twice the price), and this lowers the score for these plans. Also, expensive domain names and whois privacy is a slight downside that is easily avoidable though by using another domain registrar.

Fast servers and optional features
Enjoy cheap and lightning fast web hosting with SSD storage and Nginx web servers! Whois privacy is $9.99/year. SiteLock Basic is $19.95/year and can help you stay clear of malicious files and malware. SiteMap Generation is $9.99 - You can find free tools for creating sitemaps online so I would not get this! Google Webmaster Account and Site Verification is $14.99 and Google Analytics Integration is $15.99 - again, you can find free guides and do this easily and quickly for free.
Conclusion
TMDHosting gets some of our highest ratings because of their great advantages that include lots of data centers around the globe that you can choose from, and a helpful and fast live USA based support team. Their plans also offer high-speed loading of your hosted sites thanks to SSD storage. Long money back guarantees are also great.
Daily database backups and weekly file backups are included and saves some money. Expensive domain whois privacy negates most of the bonus of the free domain. However, the hosting price overall can get really cheap if you select up to 3 year payment cycles. I also really like that you can upgrade pretty seamlessly to a more powerful shared or cloud plan if you come to need more power. You would only need to pay the difference between the two plans, for your unused time, even though you might only be 1 year into a 3 year contract.
This is the cheapest one of the 3 shared plans by TMDHosting, and it is restricted to host max 1 website.

This plan has 1.5 GB of RAM and 2 CPU cores. It could be enough power if you don’t have that many sites with lots of plugins or traffic.

This plan has low value compared with the only slightly more expensive TMDHosting Business Plan that comes with twice the amount of resources, and no max websites hosted cap. I would go with that plan instead in almost all cases.
Only 3 cloud plans to choose from is a drawback, and so is the fact that it's not possible to scale resources individually.

Cheap cloud plan to get started
I love that this plan is so cheap for what it offers. It makes it a great plan for new websites. It is super scalable and can grow together with the traffic to your websites.
Top web hosting provider for the cloud
With Cloudways you can get access to the best cloud hosting companies in the world. All with easy to use interfaces and an expert support team ready to assist. Cloudways gives away free trial accounts to anyone that want to try them out. The trial lasts for 3 days, and you don't even need to enter any credit card details to try it out. It is available for all of the different cloud hosting providers they are partners with, but only for starter plans. You can quickly scale the web server after the trial though, to meet your server resource requirements.
Plan features
The CloudwaysBot is a server assistant that will monitor your servers, applications, billing issues, and overall performance. You can set up the alerts and recommendations you want to receive. You also get access to two Cloudways developed WordPress plugins. One for migrating your sites there, and one plugin that is supposedly best in class when it comes to caching WordPress sites.
Daily off-site backups
You can choose how often you want to have backups generated. You can also choose how long they should be retained. It is even possible to generate backups on demand. $0.033/GB per server will be applied for off-site backup storage.
Lack of payment options
Only accepting credit and debit cards is a drawback to all the Cloudways plans unfortunately.
Cloudways expert live support
Get access to expert cloud tech support 24/7. You can also ask their live sales support any questions you might have before buying.
Scale your server as needed
There are lots of levels for scaling your server to just have the amount of resources you require. Starting at just 1 GB RAM and 1 CPU core, and going all the way up to 32 CPU cores and 192 GB RAM.

High traffic websites

The GoGeek plan is only about twice the price of their GrowBig plan but is suitable for websites with an estimate of up to 4 times the traffic, making this a high value plan for the right websites. This plan also comes with the useful web developer and webmaster features like Git and staging sites for WordPress and Joomla.
