The Control Panel: Enhance

A Control Panel That Gets Out of Your Way

HostBlizzard runs on Enhance, a modern hosting control panel that puts files, databases, email, DNS, and backups in one clean dashboard, with every website in its own container.

  1. Feature 1

    Every Site at a Glance

    Sign in to see all your websites with live previews and visitor stats. The panel works on desktop, tablet, and phone, with dark mode and two-factor sign-in.

    Read the guide: Sign in to the control panel
  2. Feature 2

    One Page per Website

    Apps, files, databases, email, domains, analytics, backups, and security for each site, with quick links to restart its container or open phpMyAdmin, and to clone it on Snowstorm and Avalanche.

    Read the guide: Sign in to the control panel
  3. Feature 3

    Per-Site PHP Versions

    Choose the PHP version for each site, turn extensions on or off, and adjust php.ini settings without opening a ticket.

    Read the guide: Choose your PHP version and settings
  4. Feature 4

    Daily Backups, Self-Service Restore

    Incremental backups run every day on a separate backup server in Canada. Restore a whole website, or pick individual files or databases, straight from the panel.

    Read the guide: Back up and restore a website
  • Every Website in Its Own Container. Each site runs in a separate Linux container with its own resource limits, so a problem on one site stays on that site.
  • One-Click Staging Sites. Clone your live site to a staging copy, test updates, then push it live. Staging sites do not count toward your website limit.
  • Free SSL and a Web Application Firewall. Let’s Encrypt certificates are issued and renewed automatically. ModSecurity with OWASP rules and brute-force protection screen incoming requests.

Control Panel

A Modern Control Panel, Not a Legacy One

cPanel has run shared hosting for decades. Enhance was built for how sites run today: each one in its own container, with caching, staging, and backups in the same panel.

GOT QUESTIONS?

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers about our shared hosting platform, migrations, support and guarantees.

Why does HostBlizzard use OpenLiteSpeed and MariaDB instead of Apache and MySQL?

OpenLiteSpeed is an event-driven web server that handles many simultaneous visitors with modest memory use and starts PHP processes only when a site needs them. Paired with MariaDB on NVMe storage, it keeps typical WordPress and PHP sites fast and responsive.

What is the Enhance Control Panel and how is it different from cPanel?

Enhance is a modern hosting control panel. Each website runs in its own isolated container, the interface is a fast single-page app, and staging sites, WordPress tools and free Let’s Encrypt SSL certificates are built in.

Can you migrate my existing website from another hosting provider?

Yes. Migrations are free on Snowstorm and Avalanche. We move websites, databases and email from cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin and most other hosts, you preview the site from your own computer before switching, and we help you point your domain when you are ready, keeping downtime to a minimum.

Where are your servers located?

HostBlizzard shared hosting runs in a Canadian datacentre, and daily backups are kept on separate storage in Canada. Supporting services such as payment processing use third-party providers, which are listed in the Sheernox Privacy Policy.

How many websites can each plan host?

Flurry: 1 website, Snowstorm: 2 websites, Avalanche: 5 websites. Each website runs in its own isolated Enhance container, and staging copies do not count toward the limit.

Are backups included?

Every plan includes automated daily backups with self-service restore in the Enhance control panel. Backups are provided on a best-effort basis, so we recommend keeping your own copy of important data as well.

What are your support hours?

Tickets and email are accepted 24/7. Our team answers them Monday to Friday, 08:00-17:00 Pacific Time, excluding statutory holidays, and critical incidents outside those hours are handled on a best-effort basis. Response targets are set out in our Service Level Agreement.

What uptime and money-back guarantees do you provide?

Every shared hosting plan is covered by our 99.9% uptime Service Level Agreement, with service credits if we fall short, and a 30-day money-back guarantee. Domain registration fees are non-refundable.
