Starter: 40,000 RWF/yr

Starter includes 8GB SSD storage, 10 parked domains, 15 email accounts, and 2 addon domains. It's the right starting point for a single small business website or blog.

Standard: 69,000 RWF/yr

Standard doubles Starter's capacity across the board: 16GB SSD storage, 20 parked domains, 30 email accounts, and 4 addon domains. A good fit once one site grows or you're adding a second.

Advanced: 119,000 RWF/yr (Most Popular)

Advanced is Register.rw's most popular plan: 32GB SSD storage, 40 parked domains, 60 email accounts, and 8 addon domains. It suits businesses running several sites or a team that needs more mailboxes.

Premium: 139,000 RWF/yr

Premium leads on raw storage: 64GB SSD, plus 60 parked domains and 12 addon domains, though it doesn't include email hosting and costs more than Advanced. It's the right choice when storage and domain count matter more to you than email accounts.

How to Decide

• One small site or blog? Starter is enough.
• Growing past one site, or need more mailboxes? Standard or Advanced.
• Need the most storage and don't need many email accounts? Premium.

You're not locked in. Move up to a bigger plan at any time as your needs grow. See our hosting page for the full feature breakdown and current pricing.

Signs You've Outgrown Your Plan

A few practical signals it's time to move up a tier, rather than guessing in advance:

• You're close to your storage limit. cPanel shows disk usage on your dashboard; if it's consistently near the ceiling, that's your clearest signal.
• You need more mailboxes than your plan allows. A growing team outpaces its email account limit before it outpaces storage, in most cases.
• You're launching a second or third website. Parked and addon domain limits cap how many separate sites one hosting account can run.

None of these require starting over. Upgrading is a plan change on the same account, not a fresh migration.

Planning for an Online Store

If you're setting up e-commerce specifically, plan capacity a step ahead of a typical brochure site: product images and order data accumulate faster than a blog's. See E-commerce Hosting for Rwandan Businesses for what an online store needs beyond the base plan comparison here.
