If your project is growing and needs more resources, you can upgrade your web or cloud hosting plan from the Websites <\/b>of Billing<\/b> pages of hPanel at any time.<\/p>

You can’t directly upgrade a Web or Cloud hosting plan to a VPS. To use a VPS, you’ll need to purchase a VPS plan separately and then migrate your website content manually. 💡<\/p>\n

Agency hosting also doesn’t support direct upgrades. You’ll need to purchase an Agency plan separately and then move your websites using the Clone Website<\/strong> tool, which is available with Agency plans only. Please note that your IP address will change when moving to an Agency plan.<\/p>\n<\/div>
