iPage Hosting Reviews

No. iPage hosting plans are no longer sold: iPage stopped taking new hosting customers in 2025, and its existing accounts were moved into Network Solutions, with the switch set for on or about February 20, 2026. Both brands belong to Newfold Digital. If you’re shopping for a host, pick another provider. If you already have iPage, you’re now a Network Solutions customer.

Key takeaways

  • New signups are closed. A Bluehost page says it plainly: “We are no longer taking new customers on iPage.com,” and new hosting accounts should be opened at Bluehost (source 11). HostingAdvice first reported the change on May 21, 2025 (source 1).
  • Existing accounts moved to Network Solutions. iPage’s own user agreement says customers migrate on or about February 20, 2026, except resellers and their customers (source 4).
  • Your price should not jump because of the move. Network Solutions says there are no pricing, billing or plan changes as part of the transition (source 2, source 3). Your normal renewal terms still apply.
  • Same owner as before. Newfold Digital lists iPage among its brands, and Network Solutions and Bluehost are Newfold brands too (source 13, source 5). Newfold formed from Endurance Web Presence and Web.com Group in February 2021 (source 12).
  • ipage.com is now a login page. On September 24, 2026 our crawl found ipage.com redirecting to its sign-in screen (secure.ipage.com), and old sister brands fatcow.com and ipower.com forwarding to networksolutions.com/ipage.

Verdict: iPage is closed to new buyers

Our score Not rated. We don’t score a product you can’t buy.

The iPage you read about in 2019 or 2023 reviews is gone. The budget plans those reviews priced no longer exist as something you can order. So the useful question isn’t whether iPage is good. It’s what happens to your site if you’re already there, and where to go if you were about to buy.

Our view: this is a brand retirement, not a failure event. Newfold has been folding its smaller names into two main brands. Web.com went into Network Solutions on June 18, 2025 (source 6). iPage followed. When it closed the Markmonitor sale at the end of 2025, Newfold’s CEO said the deal lets the company strengthen its focus on Bluehost and Network Solutions (source 9). Expect more consolidation, not less.

What does iPage cost now?

For new customers, nothing, because you can’t buy it. For existing customers, Network Solutions says your current pricing and billing schedule stay the same through the move (source 3). That protects you from a transition surcharge. It does not freeze your renewal rate forever.

If you land on Network Solutions looking for a replacement plan, here is what its public hosting page says.

Option Intro price Renewal Term notes Source
Old iPage plans Not sold Your existing renewal terms Existing accounts only 2, 3
Network Solutions hosting From $2.99/mo, billed annually Renews at the then-current rate (check the live price at checkout) Auto-renews unless you cancel 7

Network Solutions’ hosting page loads its per-plan prices by script, and we couldn’t read them for this update, so we haven’t printed renewal figures. Look at the renewal line in your cart before you pay.

What we tested

No fresh hands-on test was run for this update. You can’t buy a new iPage plan, so there’s nothing new to benchmark. This page is based on Network Solutions’ help center and blog, iPage’s user agreement, Newfold’s own brand, privacy and newsroom pages, Bluehost’s iPage notice, a dated HostingAdvice report, and our own crawl of ipage.com, fatcow.com and ipower.com on September 24, 2026. Old speed and uptime numbers from the previous version of this page were removed because they describe a platform that has since changed hands.

Pros and cons for existing customers

Pros – Your login and services carry over. Network Solutions says most customers keep the same credentials and see no downtime from the move (source 2). – No price change from the transition itself (source 2, source 3). – One vendor for domains, hosting and email if you already used iPage for all three.

Cons – Your contract changes. After migration you’re governed by Network Solutions’ service agreement, not iPage’s (source 4). – Old iPage tutorials, screenshots and reviews no longer match your dashboard. – Newfold keeps merging brands. Another rename or platform move in the next few years would not surprise us (our inference from the Web.com and iPage moves).

Support and security after the move

Support now runs through Network Solutions. Its iPage FAQ lists live chat and phone support at 855-834-8495, with phone hours Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. Eastern (source 2). That isn’t 24/7 phone coverage, so plan migrations and DNS changes for weekday hours.

Security features depend on which Network Solutions plan your account maps to. Check three things in your new dashboard: that your SSL certificate is still active on every domain, that backups are running, and what your auto-renew date is.

I’m an iPage customer. What should I do now?

  1. Log in once at Network Solutions with your old iPage details and confirm your sites, email and domains all show up.
  2. Download a full backup of files and databases. Keep a copy off the server.
  3. Find your renewal date and price. Intro deals end. Renewal is usually where hosting gets expensive.
  4. Decide before renewal, not after. If the renewal price is more than you want to pay, move 30 days before it charges.

Who should pick an alternative?

Everyone shopping for new hosting. Here’s who we’d point where. Check live prices, because intro deals change often.

Who should NOT move to Bluehost just because iPage pointed there: anyone who left iPage because of upsells or renewal pricing. It’s the same parent company. If you want out of the Newfold family entirely, pick a host from a different owner. Our mergers and acquisitions tracker shows who owns what.

Methodology

We check ownership against the owner’s own pages first (Newfold, Network Solutions, iPage’s legal terms), then use dated third-party reports only where no primary page covers the fact. Every date and price on this page links to a source in the list below. Full process: how we review hosts.

FAQ

Does iPage still exist?

Not as a brand you can buy. iPage stopped selling to new customers in 2025 and existing accounts moved to Network Solutions, on or about February 20, 2026 per iPage’s user agreement. The company behind both is Newfold Digital.

What is the price of iPage?

iPage has no price today, because it no longer sells hosting. Its accounts moved to Network Solutions, whose hosting starts from $2.99 a month billed annually and renews at the then-current rate. Existing iPage customers should check their own renewal price in the account dashboard.

Who owns iPage now?

Newfold Digital, which also owns Network Solutions, Bluehost and HostGator. Newfold lists iPage among its brands and formed in February 2021 when Endurance Web Presence (iPage’s old parent) combined with Web.com Group.

Will my iPage price go up after moving to Network Solutions?

Not because of the move. Network Solutions says pricing and billing stay the same through the transition. Your normal renewal terms still apply, so check your renewal price in the account dashboard.

Can I still log in to my iPage account?

Yes. Network Solutions says most customers keep the same login. ipage.com now redirects to a sign-in page, and the account itself is managed through Network Solutions.

What happened to FatCow and iPower?

Both were sister brands of iPage. On September 24, 2026 fatcow.com and ipower.com forwarded to networksolutions.com/ipage. See our FatCow page and iPower page for their histories.
