What managed hosting actually means.

“Hosting” got commoditized to the point where $4/mo and $200/mo plans both call themselves “WordPress hosting.” They aren’t the same product. Managed hosting means:

  • Performance tuned for WordPress specifically (not generic LAMP)
  • Daily backups taken AND tested for restore integrity
  • Security hardening + WAF + automatic patching for critical CVEs
  • 24/7 monitoring with a human on escalation
  • Direct response from the person who knows your stack

Our hosting stack.

Six layers. Every one tuned for WordPress.

1

LiteSpeed / NGINX edge

HTTP/3, Brotli, edge caching tuned for WordPress. Faster TTFB than shared-hosting baseline by a measurable margin.

2

PHP 8.x + opcache

Latest stable PHP, opcache configured, Redis object cache for WP backends that benefit.

3

Daily encrypted backups

Off-site daily backups, 30-day retention. Restore on demand. Test-restores quarterly.

4

Security hardening + WAF

File permissions, login throttling, WAF rules, plugin-vulnerability monitoring, auto-patches for critical CVEs.

5

24/7 monitoring + alerting

Uptime checks, Core Web Vitals tracking, error logging. We know when something goes wrong before you do.

6

Human escalation

Text or call Joel directly. Not a ticket-system black hole. Care-plan clients get direct-line access.

Performance baselines.

What we target on every hosted site — not what we hope for, what we measure.

  • TTFB < 400 ms on cached requests
  • Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) < 2.5 s
  • Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) < 0.1
  • Interaction to Next Paint (INP) < 200 ms
  • 99.9% uptime target (measured, not promised)

If your site can't hit these on our stack, we tell you why and what the trade-offs are — not blame your theme.

Hosting FAQ.

Why managed hosting instead of cheap shared hosting?

Shared hosting is fine until your site is the one whose performance matters. The cost difference between $4/mo shared and $99/mo managed is genuinely meaningful — but for a business where your website earns or loses money, the math almost always favors managed. We'll model the ROI for you, not push tiers you don't need.

Do you host on your own infrastructure or somewhere else?

Curated infrastructure. CloudPanel-managed VPS, dedicated LiteSpeed nodes for performance-critical sites. We have opinions about which hosts are reliable for Memphis-area sites and which we will not manage.

Can you migrate my site from GoDaddy / Bluehost / SiteGround / WP Engine?

Yes — for free as part of onboarding. Standard process: clone, test on staging, DNS cutover during low-traffic window, monitor 48 hours post-cutover. Zero-downtime for most sites.

What happens during a security incident or outage?

24/7 monitoring catches most issues before they're customer-visible. Standard SLA: triage within 30 minutes for site-down, 2 hours for site-degraded, next business day for site-issue. Care-plan tier includes after-hours direct escalation to Joel.

Do you handle SSL and domain renewals?

SSL: yes, included (Let's Encrypt auto-renewal). Domain renewals stay with your registrar — we'll remind you when they're coming up but won't control your domain (security best practice).

What's the difference between hosting and a Care Plan?

Hosting is the infrastructure. Care Plan is the human work on top — WP updates, plugin work, editorial time, security audits, response to issues. Most clients pair both. Some buy hosting standalone (they have in-house dev).
