Hosting & Support

WordPress website hosting, by its very nature, requires a little more tender loving care than other types of website hosting. A content management system needs to be backed up daily: both the file system and the database. Plugins needs to be updated monthly, sometimes even on a weekly basis. The core software needs to be updated, too! And someone needs to be there to manage all of that so you don’t lose data, or worse: hand your clients’ data over to hackers. Plans from $75/month to do all of that for you!
