During the plan creation process, you will be prompted to specify various plan parameters. 

If you already have service plans and want to create plans with similar settings, you can create copies of these plans by clicking Clone Plans on the Service Plans page and then edit the copies as described in this section.

Once the plan has been created, you are ready to start serving your customers. In other words, you can create customer accounts and subscriptions.

Properties of a hosting plan and subscription are grouped as follows:

  • Resources: These are hosting resources provided with a plan. Includes validity period, policy on overusing resources, system resources like disk space and traffic, and service resources such as websites, subdomains, mailboxes, databases, and so on.
