FAQs
-
What happens if I exceed my plan's limits?
If your site exceeds its visit, storage, or CDN limits, it will remain online. Kinsta notifies you at 80% and 100% of usage and applies overage fees based on actual overage. You can also add disk space without upgrading your plan. -
How does Kinsta define a 'visit'?
Each unique IP address that visits your site within a 24-hour period counts as one visit. The total number of visits across your sites in a month determines your plan usage. -
Can I host multiple websites on one plan?
Each plan includes a set number of WordPress installs. For example, the Single 35k plan supports 1 site, while the WP2 plan supports 2 sites. To host more sites, you can upgrade to a higher-tier plan with additional installs. -
Are site migrations to Kinsta free?
Yes, all plans include free unlimited WordPress site migrations handled by Kinsta's expert team with no downtime or hidden fees. -
Do I get a discount for annual billing?
