Managed Hosting
We offer shared hosting on our own private AWS Lightsail VPS servers we manage exclusively for our clients. You never share a server with websites that could affect your performance or security. The result is VPS-grade performance at shared hosting prices. We can also set up and manage your own private VPS server on the AWS Lightsail infrastructure.
Our managed hosting includes:
- Regular testing and deployment of WordPress updates
- High-performance server-based page caching
- Full-stack caching
- Custom cache clearing and cache warming solutions
- Comprehensive layered security and bot protection
- Image optimization
- Amazon’s Content Delivery Network (CDN)
