Free SSL Certificate (HTTPS)

Every website we host comes with a free SSL certificate, transforming your domain into a secure, encrypted environment (HTTPS). This not only protects your visitors’ data but also improves your Google rankings—security is now a key SEO factor. Learn how security impacts SEO.

Daily Backups

Your site is backed up every 24 hours automatically. In the event of a crash or mistake, we can restore your site to a previous version with minimal downtime. See how we protect your content.

Wordfence Malware Protection

Wordfence scans your site for known threats, malware signatures, and unauthorized file changes. Our managed hosting clients benefit from weekly scans and alerts. If something goes wrong, our team is automatically notified and responds quickly. See our WordPress security tools.

24/7 Uptime Monitoring

Downtime can cost you leads, traffic, and reputation. We use real-time monitoring tools to track site availability and respond immediately if your site goes down. Alerts are checked by real people, not just automated scripts. Learn about uptime tools.

Plugin Updates & Optimization Audits

Every month, we update WordPress core, themes, and plugins after testing in a staging environment. Post-update, we run speed, accessibility, and code audits to ensure your site isn’t bloated or broken. Explore our development process.
