Understand your options
Get straightforward answers about buying a plan, running a website and keeping your account in order.
Hosting is the service that runs your website’s content and software. The domain gives people a name to visit, such as a .co.ke address. DNS connects that name to the hosting account.
You do not have to register a second domain to order hosting. Bring your current name or choose one through our domain search.
A shared Linux plan gives you a hosting account on infrastructure used by several customers. Our team operates the server; you look after the website you put on your account.
This suits many company sites, personal blogs and WordPress stores. The control panel handles common account changes, so you do not need to manage a Linux server yourself.
Your own laptop can use Windows, macOS or Linux. What matters is whether the website software supports the server environment.
Begin with the website count, storage and software you need. Compare the plan features before choosing how often to pay.
The live cards list the current packages. For an unusual application, send its requirements to support before purchasing.
The offer in the hero links to the selected package with its billing cycle. A rate shown per month can still require payment for several years at once.
Our live catalogue shows an entry offer here: From Kshs 188.00 / monthWebHosting Starter · Kshs 6,768.00 every 36 months. Use it as a starting point, then compare whether the package has room for your site.
Choose the lowest-priced option that meets your needs. A smaller upfront bill and the lowest equivalent monthly rate may come from different terms.
Find the ongoing price for your exact package and payment period. A first-order promotion can differ from the rate used for the next invoice.
Your website budget may also include a domain, paid plugins or a separate mail service. Check those renewals individually instead of treating a bundle as one fixed lifetime price.
Read the checkout breakdown and keep the order details. Your client account shows the charges and due dates for services you already own.
Our domain prices page separates the costs of registering, renewing and transferring a name. Use the same extension when comparing quotes.
A .co.ke name gives your business a Kenyan address; .com is another option for a wider audience. Choose a clear name and review the renewal alongside the first-year charge.
Free automated SSL appears in our shared-hosting features. Once the certificate is issued, HTTPS protects information while it travels between the visitor and the website.
The domain must resolve to the right account. Check both the main address and any version you use with www, then make sure the site loads its content over HTTPS.
A certificate protects the connection. You still need current software, protected account access and recoverable copies of your data.
Yes. Our hosting catalogue includes WordPress support and an application installer. You can add WooCommerce to a WordPress site for product pages, a basket and ordering.
The demands of a shop depend on more than the number of products. Search features, payment plugins and simultaneous customers all use account resources.
Try an order after installing or updating shop software. If you already run a busy store, share its current usage with us when choosing the package.
Yes, within the website allowance shown for your package. Each project can have its own domain and content while being managed from one account.
Sites on the same package use its shared allowance. Include their databases, uploaded files and mail when estimating the space you need.
Our plans include email accounts on your domain. For example, you can create [email protected] and use it for messages from customers.
Check the package for its mailbox features and storage. If you prefer mail to run separately from your website, explore our business email service.
You can start with the website builder included in the hosting package. Use it to publish essential information such as your services, opening hours and contact details.
WordPress offers another route through its themes and editing tools. For selling online, compare WooCommerce with our Online Shop service before choosing your setup.
Hosting supplies the infrastructure, but the page itself also matters. Large photos, slow external scripts and demanding plugins can delay a site on any package.
Measure the site after each important change. That gives you a useful result for your own pages rather than relying on a general speed claim.
A hosting service’s uptime terms explain how availability is assessed. Read the commitment for the service you order rather than treating a headline percentage as a guarantee for every website function.
A server can be reachable while a plugin error prevents your checkout from working. Website monitoring and the hosting availability measurement therefore answer different questions.
Ask us to confirm the applicable service agreement if you need a specific availability commitment for your business.
Free website migration is listed in our hosting features. Tell us which provider you use and what needs transferring so we can confirm eligibility and arrange the work.
Some transfers involve extra data or software work. Confirm the scope, possible fees and timing with support rather than assuming every move is identical.
Eligible annual hosting offers can include first-year domain registration. The included extensions depend on the package; our free domain page explains the available choices.
Check the selected order to see which name qualifies and what its later renewal costs. Hosting also works with a domain registered elsewhere.
The current plan cards list the email and backup provision. Check those details for the package you buy, especially if restoration or mailbox storage is central to your work.
Keep a separate copy of business-critical content. Ask about available restore points before relying on a particular backup schedule.
You can manage many tasks through buttons and forms in cPanel. The installer helps set up supported website software without manually creating its initial files.
You remain responsible for your pages and application settings. Use support for account questions, and take a backup before making major website changes.
A VPS becomes relevant when you need to install server packages, change the operating system configuration or run services outside the shared account’s scope.
First identify what your site has outgrown. More storage may need a larger hosting plan; root-level access needs a different service. Our VPS plans show the available route.
You can request a package change as your requirements develop. Send us your storage usage, current websites and the new capacity you need.
Confirm the charge and any work involved before the change. A move between different hosting environments may need testing as well as a billing adjustment.
Yes. Keep the name at your current registrar and direct it to your Truehost hosting account using the required DNS settings.
Changing nameservers can affect other services using the domain. Keep existing mail records when email is staying with another provider.
Our current starting rate is From Kshs 188.00 / monthWebHosting Starter · Kshs 6,768.00 every 36 months. The comparison above shows the available payment periods and the charge for each package.
Select a period to compare the full bill across plans. Longer contracts show a monthly equivalent for comparison; they do not turn the upfront payment into a monthly subscription.
Use the account details provided after activation. Add the domain, install your application or upload the site, then enter the content you want visitors to see.
Before sharing the address, open it on a phone and try its forms. If you sell online, check the basket, payment configuration and order messages.
Contact support with the domain and the time the issue appeared. Explain whether the problem concerns website files, database content or both.
Choose a recovery point carefully for a busy site. Older database copies may not contain recent purchases or submissions, so preserve the current data before restoring.
Once the account is active, you can use its publishing tools. Have your text, photographs and domain details ready to make the first steps easier.
A new installation can be quick; completing content or moving a large site takes longer. DNS updates also need time to reach all users.
A website that exports standard files may be suitable for our hosting. Database-driven applications also need compatible server software and a complete database copy.
For a service that keeps its editor and site files inside a closed platform, a direct transfer may not be possible. Tell us the platform name so we can check your options.
Hosting gives you an environment for supported website software. An all-in-one builder supplies its own editing system and manages the site within that platform.
Choose hosting if you want to work with WordPress or another compatible application. Choose a builder around the editing and selling features you need, and consider how you will maintain the site.

What is Web Hosting?
A web hosting platform is what enables you to connect to the internet and run your website. It is analogous to a server in that it houses your website, but it is cheaper and doesn’t need its own dedicated computer.
Think of it as the house of your website online. It is where your files (images, articles, videos, etc) are stored online.
It is also important to note that some Web hosting providers will offer more than one kind of hosting service.
For example, a web hosting provider might offer shared site hosting for people who only want their website hosted on the Internet for a short period of time and then stop paying for it.
But more on this in a minute.
Why do you need web hosting
Web hosting is what enables your business to have a website. It’s the backbone of your online presence.
You need a reliable web hosting platform for your business because it can support everything from email marketing, customer support, and analytics data collection.
With the proper hosting service, you will be able to maintain control over your website while providing an efficient user experience.
Web hosting is crucial to any business; it provides convenience and efficiency when managing your website.
The benefits of using a web hosting platform are many and varied depending on what you need out of it.
For example, if you have multiple websites, then a shared server will be more economical than dedicated servers that offer smaller bandwidth limits.
If you want better stability with lower costs, then cloud-based servers that offer 24/7 support can be the best option for your business.
How is VPS Hosting different from shared hosting?
Shared hosting involves multiple websites sharing the same server resources, which can lead to performance issues if one site experiences high traffic.
VPS hosting allocates dedicated resources to each virtual server, ensuring consistent performance and security.
Types of Web Hosting
There are two main types of hosting: shared and dedicated.
With shared hosting, multiple users can share the same physical resources like RAM or hard drives.
This means that shared hosting is way cheaper because the cost of running the server is shared by the users.
Dedicated hosting gives the server’s resources to one user at a time, and that user is responsible for its upkeep.
This can be beneficial to a business because it can buy dedicated hosting with a one-time investment instead of purchasing it month-to-month with shared hosting, where the business would need to keep upgrading its server every year.
And this explains why dedicated hosting is more expensive.
But then there is one in between shared and dedicated, and that is VPS hosting. With VPS hosting, the server still has multiple users on it, but the user has more control over their resources. They can upgrade or downgrade their server and have more control over their data and content.
VPS gives you both worlds; it is slightly above shared hosting in terms of cost and gives you all the benefits of a dedicated server.
How to choose between shared, VPS, and Dedicated Hosting
When choosing between a shared, virtual private server (VPS), and dedicated hosting, it’s important to consider what your specific needs are.
Some companies might need a web hosting platform that offers multiple websites at once, while others might only need one website or less.
If you have more than one website that needs more resources, think storage, bandwidth, and RAM, then it’s best to go with a VPS.
VPS hosting is perfect for online stores and websites that have outgrown shared hosting plans.
If you are just starting and only have one website that doesn’t need many resources, then shared web hosting is best.
A dedicated hosting service, on the other hand, is great for companies who don’t need more power to support their daily tasks.
For example, a big financial institution or eCommerce website attracts thousands of website visits per day.
A dedicated server also has its own IP address so in case you have any issues with your website, it won’t affect any other websites on the server.
How to Choose the Best Web Hosting Provider for Your Business?
If you are trying to choose the best web hosting provider for your business in Kenya, there are a few things you should consider.
First, you need to think about what type of service you want. There are several different types of web hosting services, such as shared hosting and managed to host.
Then, consider the size and resources of your data storage. Will your web host provide enough space for all of your applications?
Finally, you should look at the website speed of each web hosting platform.
This is important because it can determine how long it will take your website to load for visitors.
What is WordPress Hosting
WordPress hosting is a special type of hosting dedicated to hosting your WordPress site and enables you to access it from anywhere in the world via the internet.
With WordPress hosting, you can set up your WordPress blog and have it hosted on a server somewhere.
And there are two types of WordPress hosting:
Unmanaged WordPress hosting – This type of hosting service is best for those who want to have complete control over their site. You will be responsible for installing WordPress, keeping your site secure and making all the important decisions.
Managed hosting – This type of hosting service is the easiest to use as it takes care of everything for you. From installing WordPress to keeping your site secure, this type of hosting takes care of everything. This is perfect for beginners and those who want an easy blogging experience.
