Pricing and renewals
All four plans list a $1 first month, then $30, $60, $100 or $200 a month. The page states that Rocket.net never raises prices on renewals, which is a vendor promise worth checking at checkout, and that yearly billing gives two months free. Compared with the vendors read the same day, WP Engine Essential starts at $28.00 a month billed annually and Kinsta's WP 2 Business plan at $70 a month ($59 on annual billing), so Rocket.net's $30 entry plan sits close to WP Engine Essential and below Kinsta's entry install plan, though the resources are not identical.
Entry monthly price, managed WordPress (USD)
Source: the three pricing pages, read 2026-11-02. Entry plans are matched by position, not by identical resources; Rocket.net Starter covers 1 install and Kinsta WP 2 covers 2.
What every plan includes
- Visitors listed as unmetered, with unlimited PHP workers.
- A 99.99% uptime guarantee line (a vendor claim) and 30 days of backup retention with automated daily backups.
- Free SSL, the Enterprise CDN, a WAF and malware protection.
- Free migrations, listed as unlimited.
- PHP versions from 5.6 to 8.4, plus free WP Umbrella and free WP Rocket listed in the features.
Where the limits are
The limit to watch is installs, not visitors. Starter covers one WordPress site with 10GB of storage and 50GB of bandwidth. Agencies and multi-site owners move to Pro (3 installs), Business (10) or Expert (25). Bandwidth is capped by plan from 50GB to 500GB even though visitors are unmetered, so size the plan on bandwidth and storage.
Refund and migration
The page lists a 30-day money-back guarantee, a $1 first month on all plans and unlimited free migrations so you can test a site before moving it. HostingDive does not restate the vendor's migration-time claims or testimonials.
Speed and uptime
Rocket.net markets speed and security, and its page quotes customer testimonials with large TTFB and FCP improvement percentages. HostingDive states none of them because they are customer statements, not measurements it can reproduce. For measured data use the Speed Index and the test method.
Who Rocket.net fits
- A single high-traffic WordPress site that wants CDN and WAF bundled in the plan.
- An agency managing up to 25 installs on the Expert plan at $200 a month.
- A buyer who wants the renewal-price promise in writing before buying.
Skip it if
- You run many small sites: the install counts (1, 3, 10, 25) are low next to unlimited-site plans.
- You need a published SLA remedy: the page lists a 99.99% uptime guarantee line only.
