If you using wordpress, you can use free plan gridpane.comAnd which web panel? Free web panel sucks. Only standards are cpanel, plesk and maybe directadmin. So $5 for vps + $16 for web panel.

I'm using Namecheap for my blog. The basic stellar hosting. So far it's okay. Had like 10 minutes of downtime in the last 2 weeks.Hostinger Business Web Hosting Vs Namecheap Stellar Business Shared Hosting
Can I switch to Namecheap VPS from shared hosting plan without taking down my site for migration?I am currently using namecheap vps. It is surprisingly good. Also yes, I have used aws ec2, linode, digital ocean etc too. The only issue is with provisioning, which isn’t instant. You will have to wait for a couple of hours to get your vps activated.
Here’s my detailed review:

Ps if you are looking into shared/managed hosting, please don’t. They all suck.
If you know what you are doing, you can migrate without even 1 minute of down time. I am not sure if namecheap offers such service because I like to do the migration myself. May be try contacting their support? Doesn’t hurt to ask.Can I switch to Namecheap VPS from shared hosting plan without taking down my site for migration?
Does Namecheap help with migration?

Thanks for your response. Now I am considering VPS. I used to think they are super expensive. But now I see I can get one for as low as $5 (if I am not mistaken).That's what digital ocean vps are called.
I am using both hostinger and namecheap, I think both of them are good but from my best experience you should go for hostinger.Hostinger Business Web Hosting Vs Namecheap Stellar Business Shared Hosting
1. VPS are always cheaper than Shared Hosting because they are self managedThanks for your response. Now I am considering VPS. I used to think they are super expensive. But now I see I can get one for as low as $5 (if I am not mistaken).
Plus I felt VPS are limited when compared to shared hosting with unlimited bandwidth, ssd etc.
I always assumed that equates to a better hosting for my sites.
But it seems complicated to set up. I have been using shared hosting all my life with cpanel that lets me install WordPress easily now working with VPS seems a bit daunting. But let me know if I have the wrong idea.
Please could you recommend a good VPS that would cost around $5 to $6 and let me host as many wordpress sites as I have without any issues in terms of space and speed.
Also Does the gb allocated to Vps not limit a lot of things?
Sorry for the questions I am not that tech savvy.
Thanks a lot for this, where can I find your post?1. VPS are always cheaper than Shared Hosting because they are self managed
2. Yes, you have to be tech savyy to use them but you can also hire someone at an average rate to install your stuff for you on the VPS and keep it updated.
3. I use digital ocean and I like them pretty well, it wont be $5 but will come around $7
4. Shared hosting is not unlimited , they just lie to you. On the other side, when buying a VPS they directly tell you what you own and how much you can use.
5. You can use oracle cloud vps free tier which lasts forever if you want to try VPS out, I have written a nice post on it on BHW
