The problem

Does hosting actually affect my website?

More than most people expect. Hosting decides how fast your pages load, whether your site is online when someone searches for you, and whether there is a recent backup when something goes wrong.

Cheap hosting is slow hosting
Budget plans pack hundreds of sites onto one machine. Your pages get whatever is left over, and speed is something Google measures.
Out-of-date sites get broken into
Most WordPress sites are compromised through an old plugin, not a clever attack. Updates left undone are the opening.
No backup, no way back
The moment you need a backup is the moment you find out whether one exists. Finding out days later is the expensive version.
What you get

What is included in managed hosting?

The server your site runs on and what protects it. Backups, updates and monitoring are the job of a care plan, so hosting can be taken on its own if somebody already looks after the site.

Tuned for WordPress
Configured for WordPress and WooCommerce specifically, on LiteSpeed servers, rather than a general-purpose plan your site has to fit into.
Imunify360 firewall
A server firewall that blocks malicious traffic and scans for malware before it ever reaches your website.
Room to grow
Unlimited bandwidth, plus storage, email and FTP accounts that scale from 1GB on Starter up to 10GB and 200 mailboxes on Business.

Every package, side by side.

Hosting is the server your site runs on. A care plan is the work done on the site after launch. You can take hosting on its own, or add care when you want someone watching it. No VAT is charged on either.

Hosting and care

Do I need a care plan as well as hosting?

Hosting is where your website lives. A care plan is the person looking after it. You can take hosting on its own.

Already have someone looking after the site?
Then hosting alone is enough.
Nobody watching it?
A care plan covers updates, backups, security and content changes, from R350 a month.
Optional, and worth it
A care plan is what stops a site quietly rotting once the launch excitement fades.
Moving over

How do I move my site to your hosting?

We move it for you, and your current site stays online the whole time. Visitors never meet a broken or half-migrated website.

01
Check
We check the size of the site, what it runs on and anything unusual, then tell you what moving it involves.
Free of charge
02
Copy
A full copy is set up on the new server and tested while your live site carries on as normal.
Live site untouched
03
Switch
Once the copy works, the domain is pointed across. Email and anything else on the domain is checked too.

Questions we get asked

Questions about hosting.

What is the difference between hosting and a care plan?

Hosting is the space your website occupies: storage, email accounts, bandwidth and the server it runs on. A care plan is the human work done on the site: updates, backups, security and content changes.

Why not just use cheap shared hosting?

For a simple brochure site it may be fine. The difference is who does the work and who carries the risk. On budget hosting, updates, backups, security and speed are your problem. Managed means those are ours.

Will my website go offline when you move it?

No. We copy it to the new server and test it there while your live site keeps running. Only once the copy is confirmed working do we point the domain across.

Is there a contract?

No. Hosting is month to month, and paying annually gives you one month free.

What does hosting not include?

Backups, updates and monitoring belong to a care plan, so hosting can be taken on its own if somebody already looks after the site.
