How to Choose a Site Plan

InstaWP offers per-site plans ranging from temporary sandbox environments to high-traffic production hosting. You select a plan each time you create a new site, and you can change it at any time.


How to Pick the Right Plan


Before creating your site, consider:

  • Use case: Is this a test/sandbox site, a simple live site, or a high-traffic production site?
  • Resources needed: How much disk space, how many PHP workers, and what backup frequency do you require?
  • Budget: All plans are priced per site with no hidden fees. Start with a lower plan and upgrade as your needs grow.


Let's explore the process of choosing a site plan.


Selecting a Plan When Creating a Site


You must choose a plan whenever you create a new site; whether you're starting from scratch, from a snapshot, from the InstaWP Store, using AI, or via the InstaWP Connect plugin.


Log in to the InstaWP Dashboard and navigate to the Sites page. Click the Add Site button to choose a plan for your site.



A pop-up window will appear. Fill out according to your preference and click Next Step. Then select plugins if needed and click Next Step. Then the site plan window will appear.



You'll see all available plans with their features and pricing. Each plan shows disk size, PHP workers, backup frequency, and included tools. Choose your preferred plan and click the Create Site button.


Your site will be created under your selected plan instantly.
