MBOQ: Thank you for bringing this deal to AS!
I have some questions:
1- What is the number of nodes we can have?
2- Is there an email service? If so, how many emails account can I have? Can I import my email accounts to you?
3- Do you offer a daily backup? Can I do a full website back up?
4- Do you have any type of malware removal?
5- is there a limit of numbers of files we can upload?
Thank you and good luck?

May 14, 2024A: Hello mbacchi,
Thank you for the iterated questions!
1. One code allows for 5 sites (3 codes gets you 20 sites). This would be the number of websites you could host in total, all of which have dedicated (not shared!) resources.
2. Unfortunately not at this time. We strongly feel that Gmail/Outlook dominate this industry and to compete with them on deliverability rates and user-friendliness is something we haven't prioritized. In order to bring your email accounts over, we would recommend you host them with some provider (G Suites charges $6/mo per email, but you can setup aliases cost-free; or there are many other "bulk" email providers out there that have more favorable rates).
3. Correct and correct! We automatically backup your site every day at midnight. We also offer you the ability to manually do a full backup at your convenience (and restore accordingly).
4. Not built-in, today. We would be glad to help you out with this via various plugins that do a great job on the WP plugin marketplace.
5. The number of files wouldn't be limited, but you do have a disk space allowance for your AppSumo code depending on the package you purchase.
Let me know if you have any further questions!
Referring to Q 1. Can you confirm unlimited inodes?
Personally, I consider it a negative to not offer email. It is much more convenient to set that up with the host, and forward if you want to use gmail. Your way tends to add an additional fee. Now with the needed email fee, I am almost to the monthly cost of my current host (Siteground).
That does not answer the question about nodes. No offense, but is it possible you guys are trying a business idea that you don't fully comprehend?
Hello!
I wanted to jump in here regarding the inode limitations. Our current estimation is that each site has approximately 780,000 usable inodes included. So, not quite unlimited, but it should take some time for most sites to exhaust that limit.
Thanks for the feedback here all!
Completely agree on email. Hosted email is a very specialized process that should be left for dedicated providers.
