POWERFUL WEBSITE BUILDER
What Is Soholaunch Pro?
Soholaunch Pro is a cPanel-native website builder that's been helping small businesses, solopreneurs, and non-profits get online without writing code since 2001. You pick a template, drag and drop your content onto each page, and publish. No HTML editor, no local software to install, and no design skills required.
The Pro edition adds features the free version doesn't:
- A built-in eCommerce shopping cart.
- Event calendars.
- Database tables.
- Member log-in with access levels.
- eNewsletter campaigns.
- A blog module.
If you've used Soholaunch before, you'll recognize the same Quickstart Wizard and the same Page Editor. Nothing's changed on the builder side.
For a deeper walkthrough of the tool, see our knowledge base article about Soholaunch.

Why Host Soholaunch Pro With HostPapa
HostPapa makes installing Soholaunch Pro a breeze with our 1-click install process and our expert support services. When your Soholaunch site needs help, you shouldn't have to argue with a chatbot or dig through docs alone. Our support team is made up of trained hosting experts who pick up the phone, join the chat, and answer your emails, day or night, weekends and holidays included.
Here are a few more reasons why you should choose HostPapa:
Enterprise-Grade NVMe Storage
Soholaunch Pro reads and writes to a MySQL database every time someone loads a page, adds a product to their cart, or updates their blog. NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) storage is the fastest commercial storage technology available, and we pair it with servers tuned for cPanel workloads. The result is faster database queries, quicker page loads, and a smoother checkout.
Switch to HostPapa Without Lifting a Finger
Moving a Soholaunch site can feel risky. Databases, uploaded images, and template files all have to travel together. Our dedicated migration team moves your Soholaunch Pro site for Free, handling every file, database, and setting so you don't have to touch a thing.
Secure Your Site From Day One, at No Extra Cost
Every HostPapa plan includes a Free SSL certificate, so your Soholaunch site is protected from the moment it goes live. For additional security, upgrade to Protection Power, which adds automated malware detection, a Web Application Firewall, real-time alerts, and a public security trust seal for your visitors.
Powerful Soholaunch Pro Hosting
If for any reason you’re not satisfied with our services, you can cancel at any time in the first 30 days of signup to receive a full refund for the service.
Domain fees are non-refundable.

STAY UP-TO-DATE WITH THE LATEST NEWS
The Future of Soholaunch Pro
If you've been reading Soholaunch forums lately, you've seen the news: the original Soholaunch project wound down its day-to-day operations in 2025 after 20 years. Your existing Soholaunch Pro site keeps working. The latest Pro and Ultra builds are designed to run without phoning home to a licensing server.
We've applied the official licensing bypass update to every HostPapa shared server, so no site goes dark when the old license server goes offline. Our support team keeps a library of Soholaunch troubleshooting notes, so if you hit a template or database issue, we can help you work through it.
Soholaunch Pro is a mature, stable platform, but it hasn't added major new features in several years. If you need modern SEO tools, Core Web Vitals tuning, AI content help, or a large theme marketplace, you'll get more out of our HostPapa Website Builder or WordPress Hosting. Either way, our migration team handles the move for Free.

Still have questions?
Click below and directly reach one of our awesome support people.
Is Soholaunch Still Supported in 2026?
Yes. The original Soholaunch company wound down day-to-day operations in 2025, but HostPapa continues to host Soholaunch Pro sites on every shared plan. We've applied the official licensing bypass update to our servers, so your site keeps working even when the original license server goes offline.
Is Soholaunch Pro Free on HostPapa?
Yes. Soholaunch Pro is available as a Free 1-click install through Softaculous on every HostPapa shared plan. You pay only for your hosting plan and your domain name.
How Do I Install Soholaunch Pro on HostPapa?
Sign in to your HostPapa dashboard, open cPanel, click Softaculous Apps Installer, select Soholaunch under the Others category, and click Install. The whole process takes under two minutes. Full step-by-step instructions are in our install guide.
What's the Difference Between Soholaunch Pro and Soholaunch Ultra?
Soholaunch Pro is the long-standing classic edition with a built-in Shopping Cart, event calendars, database tables, and blog modules. Soholaunch Ultra was a newer version with responsive templates and a redesigned admin. Both are stable, but neither has added major features since the 2025 sunset. HostPapa installs the Pro edition by default.
Can I Migrate My Existing Soholaunch Site to HostPapa?
Yes. Our migration team moves your Soholaunch site, your database, your images, and your email for Free. Your site stays live during the move. Start at our website migration page.
What PHP and MySQL Versions Does Soholaunch Pro Need?
Soholaunch Pro runs on PHP 5.6, 7.0, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 8.0, or 8.1, with MySQL for the database. You can pick your PHP version from cPanel. Most Soholaunch sites run well on PHP 7.4 or 8.0.
Does Soholaunch Pro Support eCommerce?
Yes. Soholaunch Pro includes a built-in Shopping Cart with PayPal, WorldPay, and Verisign support, tax and shipping rules, related-item recommendations, and restricted pricing for VIP customers. No extra plugin required.
What Are the Best Soholaunch Alternatives?
If you're ready for a more modern toolkit, HostPapa's own Website Builder is a strong fit for first-time owners, and WordPress is our pick for bloggers and content sites. We'll migrate your Soholaunch content to either platform for Free.
Can I Add Email Accounts to My Soholaunch Pro Plan?
Yes. Every HostPapa plan includes a professional email on your domain. You can also upgrade to Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 from inside your dashboard.
