UNLIMITED USAGE POLICY

Unlimited Usage applies to shared and reseller hosting services only as specified on the relevant page of the Wizzhosting website.

Unlimited Definition. Wizzhosting does not limit the amount of disk space that a single customer can use on the basis that customers use the service in good faith and in accordance with these terms. The use of the term unlimited relates to the amount of disk space and bandwidth that a small business or home user requires to run their websites.

What is excluded from Unlimited. Wizzhosting offers web hosting services to home users and small to medium sized businesses, primarily in the UK. The service is not intended to be used by large companies or international organizations or for larger data processing activities which would be better suited to a Dedicated Server. Wizzhosting offers unlimited disk space and bandwidth on certain shared hosting and reseller accounts. As these accounts are on shared servers the service allows Registered Users to use the shared resources of the server. In order to ensure that no one single website can adversely affect the other Registered Users, Wizzhosting’s servers use systems to restrict the amount of certain key

  • - CPU
  • - Concurrent connections
  • - IO
  • - Number of processes
  • - Memory
  • - MySQL CPU & IO

On that basis, if a Registered User is identified as being close to these limits on a consistent basis, Wizzhosting will advise alternative and more appropriate hosting services such as a Virtual Private Server (VPS) or a Dedicated Server. In extreme instances Wizzhosting reserves the right to suspend or cancel the service at their discretion. In such cases, Registered Users will be informed and invited to make the necessary back ups of their account via their web hosting control panel.
