Common questions

What is the difference between hosting and website care?

Hosting keeps your website online. Website care keeps it updated, backed up, monitored, supported, and improved.

Do I need professional email?

If your business communicates with clients, funders, schools, institutions, or suppliers, domain-based email improves credibility.

Can I use my existing domain?

Yes. Apprigate can assist with DNS, nameservers, and email or website pointing depending on provider access.

Can Apprigate migrate my website or emails?

Yes. Website migration is available and email migration is quoted separately based on mailbox count, mailbox size, and provider access.

Is hosting created automatically after I submit a form?

No. Hosting setup requires admin review, payment confirmation, correct domain details, and approval before provisioning.

Can I only buy email without hosting?

Yes. Professional email can be provided separately where technically suitable.

Not sure which hosting or email setup your business needs?
