GreenGeeks
Hosting and serversUS-based cPanel shared, VPS and dedicated hosting provider that builds much of its marketing around renewable-energy offsetting.
The $2.95/mo price is for the entry-level 'Lite' plan prepaid for 12 months; it renews at $13.95/mo.
GreenGeeks is a US-based web hosting company founded in 2008 that offers cPanel-based shared, reseller, VPS and dedicated hosting, aimed at small businesses, WordPress bloggers and agencies managing several sites who prefer a conventional control panel rather than a custom-built one.
The entry-level 'Lite' plan starts at $2.95/month when prepaid for 12 months, renewing at $13.95/month afterwards — worth factoring in before signing up. Every plan includes a free Let's Encrypt SSL certificate with automatic renewal, a free domain for the first year, free migration handled by the company's team, a free CDN, daily backups and a 30-day money-back guarantee. GreenGeeks promises 99.9% uptime.
Much of the company's marketing centres on sustainability: it says it offsets three times the energy it consumes (a '300% Energy Match') through an agreement with the Bonneville Environmental Foundation to buy renewable energy credits, and it has been recognised as an EPA Green Power Partner since 2009. It also says it plants a tree for every hosting account, in partnership with One Tree Planted. These are the company's own claims and commercial partnerships, not an independently audited carbon-neutral certification, and should be read that way.
