Recovery Backups

Our Support team can restore from a daily backup in the case of an emergency. As we are unable to guarantee backups, we recommend creating regular backups of your account and/or using a third-party backup solution.

Softaculous Premium (Auto WordPress, Drupal & Joomla Setup)

Just click the Softaculous icon in your cPanel control panel to install the most popular software to your account with 1-click. It couldn't be easier to use! Install blogs, CMSes, eCommerce solutions and so much more. You'll automatically be notified when a new version of your software is available, so you can update it with 1-click.

There are 100's of software applications to chose from including WordPress, PrestaShop, Joomla, Drupal, Magento, OpenCart and more!

Boot Shutdown & Reboot Control
Root Access - Learn More!

"Root" gives you administrative level access to edit, install and configure all of the files on your server, including system-critical files. It gives you ultimate access to your server. This gives you the ability to configure your server to your exact needs. While root access gives you full control of your server, it is intended for experienced users, engineers and developers. That's because you do have the potential to misconfigure or delete those system critial files if you're unfamiliar or inexperienced with what you're doing.

WordPress Toolkit

Makes editing and updating your sites' plugins, themes, WordPress Core & security settings a breeze!

Inode (File) Limit

The amount of files, folders and emails you’re able to store on your account.

High Speed SwiftServer Features
NEW! NVMe SSD AMD EPYC Server
  • 3X FASTER Read/Write Speed
  • 40% FASTER CPU Performance

Provide enhanced processing power with unbelievable I/O capacity to help vastly reduce bottlenecks. Our EPYC hardware also uses non-volatile memory express (NVMe) giving our Solid State Drives (SSDs) the ability to reach their full performance potential with ultra-fast read/write speeds.

LiteSpeed Web Server
(Up To 11X FASTER Than Apache)

LiteSpeed Web Server is a high speed, drop-in server replacement for Apache. Get up to 11X FASTER performance compared to Apache and up to 6X FASTER performance than NGINX with LiteSpeed at A2 Hosting!

Solid State Drive Speed Boost
(Complete SSD Solution - Your Site, OS & Database)

While standard hard drives can only perform hundreds of input/output operations per second, our SSDs perform thousands every second! With no moving parts and no bottlenecks, our SSDs can help your site really fly!

Some hosts claim to offer Solid State Drive Hosting but only host your OS or databases, not your files.  We use SSD for everything so you get the biggest speed boost possible That's why our SSD Hosting loads pages faster than our competition and why even we host our site on SSDs.

Powered By APC/OPcache

Your A2 Hosting account comes pre-configured with PHP accelerator OPcache. External tests have shown OPcache offers up to 50% faster PHP processing! While some users prefer accelerators like eAccelerator or xCache, we've found the largest performance boost with OPcache. OPcache is available by default with PHP 5.5, while APC is available on previous PHP versions.

Powered By Memcached

Increases the speed of your MySQL databases by keeping your most important data in memory for quicker retrieval.

Server Location Options:
  • USA-Michigan
  • USA-Arizona
  • Europe-Amsterdam
  • Asia-Singapore

CloudFlare CDN Free
HTTP/2 & HTTP/3

HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 are major revisions to the HTTP network protocol and are included with all Turbo plans. HTTP/3 provides significantly faster page load times than HTTP because of its ability to deliver more HTTP requests at once and prioritize those requests. HTTP/3 delivers files 20%-30% faster than HTTP.

Edge Side Includes (ESI)

With ESI, you no longer have to designate an entire page as non-cacheable just because one portion cannot be cached. Instead you can easily designate portions of your page to be cached (or not cached) with ESI. This is significant especially for sites created by applications like Magento or WordPress.

Easy Websocket Proxy Configuration

WebSocket's create two-way interaction between a browser and a website possible for a realtime web experience. This is instead of the server needing to be called intermittently to access new information. Websockets are ideal for developing live content and realtime games. Not only do our Turbo Servers make it easier to setup a WebSocket, Turbo allows you to better handle incoming connections and provides enhanced security.

QUIC (Quick UDP Internet Connection)

QUIC is an internet transportation protocol that makes HTTP traffic more efficient and faster by reducing connection establishment times.
