Build your website from over 200 applications
Every platform has pros and cons, and we want to give you a choice for your next website project.
You can choose from a popular Content Management System (CMS), use our Sitejet drag and drop site builder or choose an application you’re seeking like Magento or OpenCart for an online store.
WordPress:
WordPress is an open Content Management System which gives you a great range of tools to build your website.
Using a site builder like Elementor, Divi or built-in Gutenberg makes creating your digital presence easier.
When choosing to add features to your website, you have a library of thousands of plugins. Be careful to select only those which are used by many other sites, have good reviews and have been updated recently.
You can also choose from plenty of themes. A theme is like the shell of your website. Be wary of pre-made themes which have lots of plugins or add ons. They will add too much weight to your site. A good and light theme we suggest is Elementor Hello Theme or Astra. Divi has its own theme if you choose that option. Or opt for a standard WordPress theme for simple sites.
Magento:
Magento is a popular online store solution. You can add products, categories and pages in a few clicks and take advantage of additional modules to customise your store.
You may find to design or build pages that you’ll need to engage with a Magento developer as it’s not great for beginners.
Open Cart:
Easy to use online store application. You can have a simple shop in minutes. Ideal for those who are looking for a simple way to get products online or have a strong customer base that don’t need much fancy words or designs to convince them to add a product to their cart.
The most common blog tool used is WordPress.

Green Web Hosting FAQs
Disk space is the amount of room your files have on the server. Kind of like some houses have more bedrooms.
How much space you need depends on files such as images, written content, videos, and emails.
It’s measured in megabytes. A megabyte is a unit of code. We measure plans in gigabytes. A gigabyte is 1,000 megabytes.
In the same way, larger homes use more power, websites with more files use more energy too.
Yes, you can pay your green web hosting monthly, quarterly or yearly.
We won’t charge you extra for choosing the option that suits you and your needs.
We maintain 99% up-time, which essentially means we have kept our green web hosting online for as long as we’ve been around.
Our 24/7 True Green® Technical Penguin team monitors the server every hour of the day and gets alerts if there are issues.
Yes. And we do that hourly no matter which plan you’re on.
By choosing an Australian web host, not only will you be supporting an Australian business, you’ll also likely receive the benefits of reduced latency. That’s a fancy word for data speed.
For example, let’s say your customer is in Sydney, Australia but you choose a web host that puts your site on a United States of America server. This increases the amount of time it takes for your website to load. Why? Because the data has to come all the way across from the USA to Sydney.
Bandwidth is how much data can transfer from your server to your user.
Think of a doorway into a shop. You can imagine that the wider the door is, the faster people will be able to enter and browse what you’re selling.
Bandwidth is the equivalent of the door size here, so the more bandwidth you have, the easier it is for people to get inside (and visit your website) without people getting wedged and squished at the entrance.
Prices stated are inclusive of Goods & Services Tax (GST). This is a tax collected by the Australian Government.
If you are registered for GST, you can often minus the amount of GST you paid to reduce your tax bill to the Australian Taxation Office.
Yes, you can add as many websites as you like to any of the plans.
Keep in mind you can have a maximum number of 350,000 files on Lite, Basic and Kickstart plans. For Bloom, this is 550,000.
If you need more, we can suggest an upgrade for you or a spring clean.
Yep, you sure can. Our email hosting is powered by Axigen and it’s separate from your True Green® web hosting. That means your storage limits on your email won’t interfere with your hosting services.
Take a peek at our Email packages for all the information.
Shared hosting like the True Green® Web Host Network gives you the benefit of an entire and well established infrastructure in a secure and reliable way.
Our network uses individual clusters to separate your site from others.
By using a shared network, you also share the cost of resources like the 24/7 True Green® Technical Penguin support team. If you were to hire a team to watch a server 24/7 and reply to you when you had an issue or query, you’d be paying thousands of dollars a year. We know there are other parts of your business that you’d much rather invest in.
The number one rule to choosing a web host is to ensure they meet your needs. There’s a few questions you should ask yourself like:
- Where is the web host based?
- Do they offer 24/7 support online and over the phone?
- Are the web hosting plan details displayed or vague?
- Does the web host do backups for you?
- Can you access your account in a self-service dashboard?
- Is your web host flexible with disk space usage?
- Is your web host reliable? Are they quick to reply?
- Are there many bad reviews online about them?
- Does your web host offer you free migration to switch?
- Can you access a cPanel or the backend without restrictions?
- Are they trying to own the domain name in their name? This is a big red flag. If the answer is yes, run!
- Is the provider a sole operator or do they have a team of people?
- Are there other plugins or tools you can add?
- Does the web host provide you with free built-in security?
- How much does the web host charge if you have malware?
- Is there a knowledge base or help articles on their dashboard?
Of course, if you are not sure – you can always contact our team who are more than happy to help.
Yes, you will need a domain name (web address) if you want people to find your website online.
If you don’t have one, you can get one with us.
If you’ve already got your domain, we can help you point the records so your site goes live. Or you may like to move the domain to us and support 1% for the Planet.
When your business and website needs change in either direction you can change your plan yourself on your 24/7 GROW dashboard. Or you can chat with our sales team who can help you.
Note: You cannot downgrade to the Lite plan.
Unlike some other players out there, we’re Aussie. All prices are Australian Dollars (AUD).
