Client site hosting FAQ

What is the best hosting for client sites?
SiteGround leads for client work with collaborator roles, staging and billing transfer, while DreamHost and A2 Hosting suit agencies that want reseller flexibility.
How do I host many client sites?
Use a plan that allows multiple sites, or a reseller option with WHM, so you can host and manage several client sites under separate accounts.
Can I give a client access to their site?
Yes. SiteGround offers collaborator and client roles, so you can give a client access to their own site without sharing your main admin login.
How do I hand a site back to a client?
SiteGround lets you transfer billing and access to a client when a project ends, so you can hand over the site cleanly without keeping it on your account.
How much does hosting for client sites cost?
Plans start near $0.80 to $3.95 a month per site on an intro term. Reseller and managed options cost more but add branding, collaboration and handover.
