What is shared Linux hosting?

Shared Linux hosting is a web hosting model where multiple websites share the same physical server running a Linux operating system. Resources such as disk space, RAM, and bandwidth are divided among accounts according to each plan's allocation. It is the most cost-effective way to host a small to medium website.

Is shared hosting good for WordPress?

Yes. WordPress is optimised for the Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP stack that underpins most shared hosting plans. Lakpura's plans include Softaculous, which installs WordPress automatically in a few clicks. For blogs and small business sites, shared hosting provides more than adequate performance.

What is the difference between shared hosting and VPS hosting?

In shared hosting, server resources are divided among many accounts, keeping costs low but limiting the maximum resources any single account can use. A VPS (Virtual Private Server) gives your site a dedicated portion of a physical server, offering guaranteed resource allocation and greater control. VPS is typically the next step when a shared account consistently hits its resource ceiling.

Does Lakpura's shared hosting include a free SSL certificate?

Yes. Every Shared Linux Hosting plan from Lakpura includes a free SSL certificate, which activates HTTPS on your domain. HTTPS protects data transmitted between your visitors and your server and is recognised as a positive ranking signal by Google.

Can I host multiple websites on one shared hosting account?

This depends on the specific plan tier chosen. Many shared hosting plans support add-on domains, allowing you to host additional websites within the same account. Check the plan specifications or contact Lakpura's support team to confirm the number of domains permitted on a given plan.

What control panel does Lakpura's shared hosting use?

Lakpura's Shared Linux Hosting plans include cPanel, the most widely used hosting control panel in the industry. cPanel allows you to manage files, email accounts, databases, and security settings through a straightforward browser interface. No command-line experience is required.

How do I install WordPress on shared hosting?

Lakpura's plans include the Softaculous one-click installer, accessible from within cPanel. Select WordPress from the application list, fill in basic site details, and Softaculous handles the database setup and file installation automatically. The process typically takes under five minutes.

Is shared hosting secure enough for a small business website?

For most small business websites, shared hosting with proper account isolation and an active SSL certificate provides a solid security baseline. Lakpura's plans include a free SSL certificate from the outset. Sites that handle sensitive customer data or financial transactions at scale may want to consider a VPS plan for additional isolation.
