Why do WordPress updates matter?
Out-of-date plugins are the most common way WordPress sites get hacked. The official WordPress hardening guide puts keeping software updated near the top of its list. The catch is that updates sometimes break things. That’s why we check the site after every update instead of just clicking “update all”.
Why your own server?
Cheap shared hosting puts hundreds of sites on one machine. When a neighbor gets busy or hacked, your site slows down or goes with it. With us, your site runs on its own server. That makes it faster and keeps other people’s problems away from your business.
What isn’t included?
Hosting covers keeping the site running, secure and current. New pages, redesigns and new features are separate work. So is writing new content or building a new plugin feature. We quote those before we start, so you’re never billed for something you didn’t approve. Small fixes caused by an update we applied are part of hosting. If an update breaks something, putting it right is our job.
Common questions
What does managed WordPress hosting mean?
Managed WordPress hosting means the host handles the technical upkeep for you, not just the server. That includes core, plugin and theme updates, daily backups, security and uptime monitoring. With plain hosting, those jobs are yours. With ours, you only think about your content, and we check the site still works after every update.
Can I leave if I want to?
Yes. It’s your site, and there’s no long contract. If you’d rather host it yourself or somewhere else, we hand it over cleanly with a full backup of the files and database. We can also help your new host get it running. Your domain stays registered in your name the whole time.
Do you host sites you didn't build?
Yes. We can move an existing WordPress site onto our hosting and take over its care. We check its health first, including outdated plugins, broken forms and backup status, so there are no surprises. If anything needs fixing before the move, we tell you and quote it before doing any work.
