The More Technical Stuff.

1 Circle

Truly Unlimited Traffic

We’re not going to pester you about having too much traffic. We’re including unlimited bandwidth so that you can handle whatever traffic demands come your way – no surprise charges here!

2 Circle

Full Backups

Each Pico account gets 3 backup snapshots, 2 daily and 1 weekly, so that you can pick just how far back in time you’d like to restore. Everything is included - files, emails and databases.

3 Circle

US or EU

You can choose from any of 2 US and 1 EU datacenters for your Pico hosting. Generally, we recommend choosing near you, or your target audience – but they’re all excellent!

4 Circle

Real Instant Setup

Shared and Reseller Hosting lets you get started without the need to pay some up front setup fee. Check your inbox – the details will already be waiting for you.

5 Circle

SSL

With totally free SSL certificates, you can lock down that browser to server communication – keeping your Pico users and the server free from eavesdropping – a terrific first step for security protocol.

6 Circle

Migration

Switching hosts can be hands-free on your end, leaving us to do the tasks for you. We’ve done thousands, so this is something we’ve gotten very good at!
