WordPress Hosting for Business

Wordpress Hosting

If you have a WordPress website and having issues, this is the article for you.

 

We will go through the various issues that we come across with Hosting providers for WordPress and help answer any questions you have around WordPress Hosting for Business.

One area that you should always consider when choosing a hosting provider, is making sure it’s the right one. Too many times we have been speaking to prospects, turning them in to customers as their current supplier cant provide a decent level of service.

The hosting is the foundation to your website. Although there are services out there which are cheap, they may not come with all of the services that a business hosting service provides, or provide a level of service that you would expect.

When we talk about foundations, your site is based on it, but it’s the converging factor for everything to do with the sites security, compatibility and speed. All of these factors affect your SEO and getting you to the top of Search Engines, so its critical that you get it right for the business.

Reasons can vary, here are some examples

  • Website is slow
  • Website is affected by Malware and the provider has taken it offline (with no assistance on getting back up and running again)
  • If I have a problem, its hard to get a resolve
  • Support is fast to respond, but hard to get a resolution quickly
  • Changes that you need, delays happen
  • Updates to WordPress cause issues
  • Security worries, making the site secure
  • Backups to the site don’t work

Responsibility

That’s the key word there. We take responsibility to make sure that your site is secure, backed up, fast, up to date, reporting well and online

Hosting designed for WordPress

We’ve developed our own hosting platform just for WordPress websites, ensuring you get a robust, secure hosting environment that caters to the content management system’s every need. Advanced load-balancing, SSD storage as standard, superfast StackCache caching, clever database handling, automatic updates, and high quality hardware throughout means you get consistently excellent speeds your visitors will love.  Our hosting is designed to scale as your website grows, meaning the same great performance no matter how popular you get.

Not Just for Blogs

WordPress is often pigeonholed as being ‘for blogs’, when the reality is that you can create any kind of website. Ecommerce sites, galleries, business websites and much more can all be built quickly and easily using WordPress. With tens of thousands of free easily editable themes and feature-adding plugins, you can create a website that stands out from the crowd even if you can’t code.

If you run WordPress, you’ll want to take advantage of our bespoke WordPress platform. We don’t repackage standard shared hosting as ‘WordPress Hosting’; we’ve gone above and beyond to create a completely separate managed platform. It’s optimised specifically for WordPress speed and security with lightning fast StackCache caching, MySQL resource handling, and automatic WordPress core updates all backed by fantastic hardware and support.

Automatic WordPress updates: always forget to update WordPress or simply have too many installs? Don’t worry, we automatically update your core WordPress installs with the latest security fixes and new features as soon as they’re released.

Built-in plugin monitoring: our systems are always running checks to identify any potentially abusive plugins and automatically block any that may put your website at risk or have a significant impact on performance. Any plugins that need updating, we take care of that as part of your monthly plan

Our Platform

Unlike with other web hosts, your website isn’t tied to one single server but makes use of a whole platform, meaning that you get incredible reliability and speed at an unbelievably low price.

Traditional shared hosting performance is subject to how much traffic you get and what other users are doing, but our platforms are load-balanced and automatically scale to meet resource demands at no extra cost to you. Your website stays online and runs fast so you can concentrate on your business.

Our advanced UK data centre is kitted out with premium hardware and the latest and greatest security and environmental technologies. With technicians onsite 24/7 every day of the year and a resilient national network for ultimate reliability, you can rest assured that your websites are safe with us.

We’ve invested heavily in our hardware to ensure optimal performance and a faultless design with no single point of failure. Each server has Dual Intel Xeon Scalable 12-core processors with hyper-threading, presenting 48 logical cores and 64GB DDR4 RAM.  All MySQL and MSSQL databases are hosted on the same type of Intel Xeon servers, but with 192GB RAM and SSD storage.

We’ve developed an incredibly resilient high performance storage platform utilising 100% SSD storage arrays in a RAID 10 configuration, with battery-backed hardware RAID cards. Storage arrays are then replicated across multiple servers so in the highly unlikely event that disks, arrays or entire servers fail there will be no downtime or impact to your site. We take daily data backups, which are stored at a secured offsite facility. We also run our own bespoke Web Application Firewall that continually monitors and filters out threatening requests before they can even target your website.
