Final Verdict

Who should buy GreenGeeks hosting?
GreenGeeks is one of the best shared hosting options and is best suited for light to moderate traffic websites for small businesses, bloggers, and entrepreneurs. What makes GreenGeeks stand out is that unlike other shared hosting providers, GreenGeeks posted very impressive numbers during load management testing—most likely due to their account isolation and server balancing. Therefore, if you expect some periods of traffic spikes, GreenGeeks is a shared host worthy of consideration.

Who shouldn’t buy GreenGeeks hosting?
Although GreenGeeks is impressive, large WordPress applications and mission-critical apps that need absolute top speed and performance would still be better hosted by a premium managed WordPress hosting provider or a cloud VPS host.
