With Business Hosting, fast-growing small businesses can now have a powerful option for hosting their demanding websites,” Arora added. Business Hosting offers three different plan options. “Prime” is for fast-growing, high-traffic websites where performance and speed are key. It includes 1 GB RAM, 60 GB storage and one CPU. The “Premium” option is made for data-heavy websites, community forums and basic eCommerce sites. It includes 2 GB RAM, 120 GB storage and two CPUs. The “Enterprise” variant is ideal for social media, business listings and advanced eCommerce sites. It includes 4 GB RAM, 240 GB storage, two CPUs and free one-year malware removal.
