Hosting & Care Plans
WordPress hosting and care, handled by the people who build sites
A WordPress site is never really finished. It needs updates, backups, security checks and the occasional fix. Our care plans take all of that off your plate, on fast Australian servers we provision and watch over ourselves, with support from developers who know WordPress properly.
Australian servers, set up properly
Your site is hosted on servers in Sydney, close to your Australian visitors, which keeps pages quick to load. We provision and configure every server ourselves rather than dropping your site onto a crowded shared host alongside thousands of others.
Each server is tuned for WordPress, with modern PHP, server-level caching, security certificates and a firewall in place from day one. We monitor uptime and performance around the clock, so if something goes wrong we usually know about it before you do.
Because we control the whole setup, we can make changes quickly when your site needs them. There is no waiting on a third-party hosting company or being passed between support departments.
Updates, backups and security, done with care
WordPress core, themes and plugins all need regular updates. Clicking update and hoping for the best is how sites break. We review updates before applying them, keep a fresh backup in place and check your site afterwards, so problems are caught and rolled back quickly.
Your site is backed up every day and the backups are stored separately from the server. If something goes wrong, whether it is a bad update, an accidental deletion or a security issue, we can restore a working copy.
We also keep an eye on security. That includes malware scanning, login protection, sensible user permissions and removing plugins that are no longer maintained. Prevention is far cheaper than cleaning up after a hacked site.
Real support and ongoing improvement
When you need help, you talk to the developers who build and maintain WordPress sites every day, not a call centre reading from a script. Whether it is a broken form, a layout that looks wrong or a question about how to do something, we sort it out.
Care plans also include time for speed tuning and small improvements. We look for slow pages, heavy images and plugins that are dragging things down, and fix them as part of looking after your site.
We are happy to take on sites we did not build. If yours needs some work first, we will tell you honestly, and our WordPress consulting can help map out a plan. If your site rarely changes and you would rather skip WordPress altogether, a Rapid Site might be a better fit.

Hosting & Care Plans in action
Can you host a site you did not build?
Yes. We review it first to make sure it is in a reasonable state. If it needs some work before we can look after it properly, we will explain what and why.
Will moving my site cause downtime?
We plan migrations carefully, test the site on our servers before switching and make the change at a quiet time. Most visitors will not notice anything at all.
What happens if my site gets hacked?
Our security measures make that far less likely. If something does happen, we restore a clean backup, close the gap that was used and let you know what we found.
Do you look after email as well?
We focus on hosting and caring for your website. For email, we recommend a dedicated provider and are happy to help you set it up so it works smoothly with your domain.
Is there a lock-in contract?
We will run through the plan terms with you before you sign up. Your site and content are always yours, and if you ever want to move on, we help you take your site and backups with you.
How quickly do you respond to support requests?
We respond as quickly as we can, and urgent issues like a site being down jump to the front of the queue. Because you deal directly with developers, there is no being passed around between departments.
