Rapyd offers hosting plans for every stage of growth—from simple personal sites to complex agency portfolios. Each plan includes one private environment, and you can choose whether that environment supports a single-site or multiple fully isolated WordPress sites.

This article gives you a high-level overview of how Rapyd plans are structured, what makes them different, and when to choose one tier over another. If you're looking for plan specs, add-on pricing, or resource details, the links below will take you there.


Overview of Rapyd Plans

Every Rapyd plan includes a dedicated private environment, optimized for speed, security, and flexibility. You can choose a plan that supports a single WordPress site or one that allows you to run multiple fully isolated sites within the same environment.

Single or Multi-site

Run a single WordPress site for simplicity, or manage multiple independent sites within one environment. Multi-site plans let you host several projects—each fully isolated with its own domain, database, and resources—without the complexity of managing separate environments.

Flexible Scaling

Start small and scale as you grow. You can add more sites, expand your environment’s storage, or upgrade to a higher plan level at any time. Everything is self-service and seamless—no downtime or reconfiguration required.

Performance and Security Built In

Every plan comes with a performance-focused stack by default. LiteSpeed Enterprise delivers fast, efficient caching. Redis improves database performance with object caching. Monarx protects against malware in real time. Daily backups and free SSL are included for all sites, with no manual setup needed.

Tools for Developers and Teams

Rapyd includes advanced tools to support your workflow—whether you're building solo or as part of a team. Use staging environments to test changes safely, view real-time stats and logs, switch PHP and WordPress versions, and control your environment settings with precision.

Key Terms

  • Environment – A dedicated server container where your sites run. One environment per plan.

Choosing Single-site vs. Multi-site

Use a single-site plan if:

  • You’re only managing one website

  • You want a simple and isolated setup

  • You don’t need to scale to additional sites

Use a multi-site plan if:

  • You’re managing more than one site

  • You want to save time and money managing environments
