Money site hosting is for the sites you actually earn from – a client site, a shop, the brand you are building. It runs on separate infrastructure: our sister company Zinn Digital’s own managed platform, with its own servers and its own IP ranges. Your money site never shares a server, an IP range or a footprint with a private blog network. You buy it and manage it here, in the same dashboard as everything else.
💡 Why keep them apart?
A private blog network and the site it points at should look like strangers to a search engine. Same servers, same IP ranges and the same neighbours is the one thing that makes them look related. Money site hosting is our answer to that, and it is the reason it is a different platform and not just a different plan.
What you get
- One-click installs – WordPress and WooCommerce, Joomla, Drupal, PrestaShop, OpenCart, Moodle, Nextcloud, Matomo, Laravel, Strapi and more. Pick the application on the order form and it is installed for you.
- Daily backups, kept for the period your plan says, and backups on demand on the larger plans.
- Free SSL and a free CDN, issued and renewed for you.
- A staging site on the larger plans, with one-click push to live.
- Mailboxes on your own domain.
- Object storage for media, and a Redis object cache on the plans that include it.
- Rank tracking, indexing checks and backlink metrics for the site, included with the plan.
Exactly what each tier includes is on the plans page, which reads the live catalogue – so what you see there is always what is on sale today.
Buying one
- Open Money sites from the menu.
- Choose how long you want to pay for – 1, 3, 6 or 12 months. The longer terms are discounted, and the page shows you what you save before you commit.
- Choose the tier. The card lists the real allowances: websites, disk, files, visits a month, object storage, mailboxes and how long backups are kept.
- Choose the application to install, and enter your domain if you have one. You can leave the domain out and start on a temporary address – your site will work at once and you can point your domain whenever you are ready.
- Press Continue to payment. You pay on Zinn Digital LTD’s own secure page: it bills the plan directly and we never see your card details.
- The site appears under Money sites in your dashboard as soon as it is built. If it is taking a while, press Refresh from Zinn Digital on that page.
Sometimes we place the order for you instead of taking it online – for instance for the WooCommerce tier. When that happens you get a ticket, an e-mail with the payment link, and a clear note on the order that nothing has been charged.
Managing it from your dashboard
Everything you need day to day is on the site’s page in your PBN.LTD dashboard:
- whether the site is live, being set up or suspended, and why;
- the plan it is on and what that plan includes;
- disk, files and visits used against the plan’s allowances;
- its hostnames, PHP version and region;
- its recent jobs and any errors.
A few jobs open in the Zinn Digital panel instead – the file manager, database tools, SSH and SFTP details, staging and restores. Those need a signed-in session on that platform, so we send you there with one click rather than pretend we can do it here. Everything else stays in this dashboard.
How it differs from PBN hosting
- Different infrastructure. Money sites are not on the PBN network’s servers at all.
- Different billing. Zinn Digital LTD bills the plan; it appears on your Invoices page here all the same.
- Different shape. PBN hosting is built for many small sites; a money site plan is built for one site that has to be fast and stay up.
- Same dashboard. You do not learn a second control panel.
If something is wrong
Open a ticket from Support as you would for any other site. Our team sees your money site, where it is hosted, its state, its usage and its recent jobs on the ticket itself, so you do not have to explain any of that.
