Choose Nabtech Web Hosting when you need a general hosting account for websites, email and compatible applications, with an Account Manager and the Hosting AI Engineer. Choose NabWP when your project is based on WordPress and you want our dedicated WordPress Manager, native AI website creation tools and WordPress AI Engineer. These are two separate products, so the decision should reflect what you run and how you want to manage it.

01 Compare your applications and daily management work
| Product | Best starting point | Management and AI |
|---|---|---|
| Nabtech Web Hosting | General websites, email and compatible applications | Account Manager and Hosting AI Engineer |
| NabWP Managed WordPress Hosting | WordPress websites, publications and WooCommerce projects | WordPress Manager, AI creation tools and WordPress AI Engineer |
Start with your application. A custom PHP website, a collection of different applications or a project with particular runtime requirements should be assessed against Web Hosting's available tools and limits. A WordPress business website, content publication or WooCommerce store is a natural candidate for NabWP. WordPress can also be installed on compatible general hosting, but its presence alone does not give that account every NabWP feature.
Next, consider your daily work. If you regularly handle email accounts, files, database users, DNS records and several types of application, the general Account Manager is useful. If your main tasks are updating plugins, maintaining themes, creating WordPress pages, checking site security and testing WordPress changes, NabWP's focused workspace may save time. Both Engineers can assist with supported work, but they operate in the context of the relevant service.
02 Example: compare a custom application with a WordPress shop
Two teams are choosing hosting. One runs a custom PHP booking application with a database. The other wants a WordPress shop with theme, plugin and content management in one focused workspace.
| Project | Starting point |
|---|---|
| Custom booking application | Assess Web Hosting against the application's PHP, database and scheduled-task requirements. |
| WordPress shop | Assess NabWP against the website count, store requirements and WordPress management tools needed. |
During the seven-day trial, test the booking submission for the first project and a complete test order for the shop. Review where each team's email will remain.
Expected result: the product choice follows the application and daily work. A WordPress installation on general Web Hosting does not automatically include the NabWP management experience.
What should I check before choosing Web Hosting or NabWP?
Finally, compare actual requirements rather than product labels alone. Check website count, storage, resource usage, backup needs, licences and any important integrations. For an existing website, tell us what it runs and what problems you want to solve. Our 7-day trial gives you an opportunity to explore the appropriate product before committing. If you use both products, open the correct service before making changes so the work applies to the intended website or hosting account.
03 Make a short decision record
- List every application that must run, including background workers or integrations that are not visible to website visitors.
- Choose which workspace will handle the daily work: general account administration or a WordPress-focused management experience.
- Confirm the selected service supports essential runtimes, storage and access before moving an existing business website.
If both products suit a basic WordPress website, base the choice on the tools you will use. Existing email or unrelated applications still need a home during a product change. Keep that decision separate from selecting a theme or running the AI builder.
