With thousands of different hosts it difficult to know which one you can trust. We recommend hosts trusted by WordPress. Use the table to your right to properly allocate which hosting package works best with Duplicator based on the size of your web-site.
Do you have a real business?
Even the best basic hosts have limitations. This is why we recommend your own VPS if your website is critical to your businesses revenue. The table to the right is a general recommendation based on your sites size.
Site Size Recommended Hosts Sites < 500MB BlueHost Basic
