Why does my staging website show up as suspended?

Major reasons of staging website suspension

Reason 1- You did not subscribe to any of the paid plans during your trial period of 15 days.

InstaWP offers free trial period of 15 days only. You need to subscribe to any of the paid plans within the trial period in order to continue using your site/sites.

Reason 2- The allocated disk quota/ space of your site is exhausted.

Your site may expire if you have exhausted all the allocated disk quota/ space on your hosting plan. However, this is not an immediate action, we inform you priorly via emails to delete sites which are not in use or to upgrade your plan in order to have more disk quota/space for an unhindered experience.

Reason 3- You have manually set up the expiry date of your website.

Under the More Actions option you get to setup the expiry of your site. Click on Tools and another submenu will open up with the last option as Set Expiry Date. If you setup the expiry date of your site through this option, then it will automatically expires on that specific date and time, even if your website is on a paid plan.




When an InstaWP staging site appears suspended, it is usually because the site has expired, become inactive and all services attached to it stop working or you have not have subscribed to any of the available paid plan that keeps the site as reserved so that it does not expire and remains in your account forever (unless manually deleted or marked as un-reserved).
