By James Flarakos | April 23, 2024
If you’re currently using our free WordPress hosting service and considering an upgrade to our paid plans, this guide will walk you through the process smoothly and efficiently. Whether you need more resources, want to start using bigger plugins like WooCommerce, or desire additional features like free email, upgrading is straightforward.
Step 1: Select Your New Hosting Package
The first step in upgrading is to select the right hosting package for your needs. You can easily do this through your dashboard:
- Navigate to your hosting plans: Here, you’ll find different options tailored to various needs, including WordPress-specific and PBN hosting. If you’re unsure about which plan to choose, refer to our detailed video explanation on the differences between our hosting options.
- Choose the appropriate plan: If you’re hosting a single website, you might opt for a single site plan. If you plan to host multiple sites, consider one of our larger packages that accommodate more websites.
Step 2: Initiate the Upgrade
Once you have chosen and signed up for the right package:
- Visit our support section: Here, you can create a support ticket. Inform us in the ticket that you want to upgrade from the free hosting plan to the premium plan you’ve selected.
- Specify your desired premium plan: It’s important to let us know exactly which plan you are upgrading to so that we can prepare for the site migration accordingly.
Step 3: Site Migration
After you’ve purchased your plan and created your support ticket, our team at SeekaHost will handle the rest:
- Free site migration: We offer complimentary site migration for any user moving from our free WordPress hosting to a premium plan. Our team will take care of all the technical details, ensuring a smooth transition without any disruption to your site’s functionality.
