What's Included in Managed WordPress Hosting
Get the full breakdown of what services and features are typically included in managed WordPress hosting plans.
Everything You Get With Managed Hosting
One monthly price. No hidden extras. No upsells for essential features.
Daily Automated Backups
Your entire WordPress site - files and database - is backed up automatically every day. Backups are stored in secure off-site cloud storage with 30-day retention. If anything goes wrong, we restore your site to a clean working state within the hour.
Backups are tested regularly to ensure they can actually be restored. A backup you can't restore isn't a backup.
Security Monitoring & Malware Protection
Continuous security scanning monitors your site for malware, suspicious file changes, brute-force login attempts, and known plugin vulnerabilities. Threats are identified and dealt with proactively.
Includes file integrity monitoring, firewall configuration, and login attempt rate limiting. Malware removal is included at no extra cost if an infection occurs.
WordPress Core, Plugin & Theme Updates
We apply WordPress core, plugin, and theme updates carefully - reviewing compatibility before pushing them live. You never need to log into your WordPress dashboard to run updates.
Outdated software is the #1 cause of WordPress security incidents. Our process ensures updates are never missed but never applied blindly.
Performance Optimisation
Server-level caching, database query optimisation, image compression, and minification of CSS and JavaScript are all configured and maintained. Your site loads fast for visitors.
We monitor page load times and Core Web Vitals. If performance degrades, we investigate and fix the root cause.
SSL Certificates
SSL certificates are provisioned, automatically renewed, and monitored. Your site will never show the 'Not Secure' browser warning. Visitor data is encrypted in transit.
Includes automatic redirect from HTTP to HTTPS and monitoring for certificate expiry. We handle the entire SSL lifecycle.
Content Delivery Network (CDN)
A CDN distributes your site's static assets across multiple global servers, delivering them from the location nearest to each visitor. This dramatically improves load times for visitors outside your local area.
CDN is configured and managed for you. Images, CSS, and JavaScript files are served from edge locations worldwide.
Uptime Monitoring - 99.9% Commitment
Your site is checked every minute from multiple monitoring locations worldwide. If your site goes down, we know before you do - and we start working on it immediately.
We commit to 99.9% uptime. That's less than 9 hours of unplanned downtime per year. Any extended downtime is credited back.
Expert WordPress Support
When something looks wrong or you have a question, you talk to someone who knows your site. Not a generic support ticketing system - a real person who understands WordPress and your specific setup.
Support covers WordPress-specific issues, plugin questions, and site troubleshooting. No scripted responses, no transfer to another department.
Staging Environments
A staging copy of your site lets you test design changes, plugin updates, or new features in a private environment before pushing them live. Zero risk to your live site.
Staging environments are one-click to create and one-click to push live. Safe testing without technical complexity.
Free Site Migration
Moving from your current host? We handle the complete migration process - files, database, email accounts, and DNS - with zero downtime. Migration is always included free.
We assess your current setup, plan the migration to avoid any disruption, and verify everything works before switching DNS.
