WORDPRESS HOSTING
Your hosting matters. The adage “you pay for what you get” has never been more true as it is with your WordPress hosting. We go a step further, because just hosting a website will not help you create your vision. Our 10+ years experience in dealing with hosting companies, big & small, cheap and pricey, has helped us design awesome MANAGED hosting programs for our clients.

WORDPRESS HOSTING OVERVIEW
There are thousands of choices when it comes to choosing a hosting platform for your WordPress site. Prices range from FREE – $1000 per year or more. The range of prices is the main indicator of the differences in choices.
What many people (especially entrepreneurs, startups, and home-based warriors) don’t understand about hosting is how to make a decision about their hosting service.
To fully understand the differences between hosts you have to understand the components of hosting, the nuances of WordPress, and the trade-off between your resources, meaning your time and money. The general rule of thumb is this:
The less you pay for DIY hosting, the more you will pay in time (and money) to maintain your site. When it breaks, you will have to fix, or hire someone to do so. Either way, running a successful business platform costs time and resources.
STANDARD HOSTING VS MANAGED SOLUTIONS
Hosting is not one size fits all. Every client is different. Every business owner has different skills, different employees, time challenges, and of course budget plays a role.
The web hosting industry is always targeting business owners, site operators, bloggers, and anyone who will click an advertisement with the “lowest cost” plan and the “feature rich” plan for slightly more. Most people have no idea what they are purchasing, and while hosting companies have commoditized the actual service of web hosting, it has not made the consumer more diligent when choosing a web hosting company.
Running a website is more complicated than most companies lead you to believe. 99.99% of hosting companies are merely renting hard drive space to you for $X per month. They have no interest in your business, your operations, whether you are profitable or not, how fast your site loads, the plugins you use, where you rank in search, or any other “aspect” of your business that is directly or indirectly impacted by the performance of your website.
Our solutions address these hidden issues and are crafted to help you choose where to start, knowing you can always scale up with us.
We offer two types of solutions for your hosting needs, ranging from economy, do-it-yourself WordPress hosting to our Managed Hosting plans that are assembled to provide you with maximum efficiency and value with world-class hosting and professional plugins.
And, all of our hosting plans include managed email. This often overlooked service can be a handful for your admin staff so we include email services (with a few exceptions) to all of our hosting clients.
We are sure you will find the perfect fit your business in one of these solutions.
