## Notes

SiteGround has been independently owned since 2004 and runs its service on Google Cloud rather than its own hardware. It replaced cPanel with a proprietary control panel, Site Tools, and sells fixed shared tiers built around WordPress and WooCommerce. SSH and WP-CLI come with every tier; Git integration and staging appear on the higher ones.

The company describes itself as a group registered across several countries and names no headquarters, which is why that field is empty here rather than guessed.

## Worth knowing

The advertised entry price is a first-term rate on an annual prepayment. The regular rate applies from the first renewal and is several times higher, which is a larger step than most of the shared tier in this dataset.
