7 main advantages of managed WordPress hosting

The speed of the site

The loading speed of a web site affects search engine rankings, which have a direct impact on customer satisfaction and loyalty. Shorter loading times mean higher conversion rate, higher user return traffic, better image for the brand for web content. With a managed WordPress host, it is available to have better uptime, load faster.

Automatic updates

Users don’t have to update themes, plugins manually… etc. The WordPress platform automatically updates the new version of the software, the core WordPress application, and needed plugins. Updating the software keeps more secure the site.

Specific security

Managed WordPress hosting services’ security is managing by professionals with a deep understanding of platform firewall creation and administration. With secure WordPress hosting, the security strengthens against possible attacks like malicious software.

Expert support

Managed WordPress hosting has 24-hour technical support to resolve issues faster. They have a professional team that specialized in WordPress hosting.

Developer-Friendly

Compare to shared hosts, managed WordPress hosting provides access to additional developer-friendly, including features such as SSH access, Composer, HeidiSQL, Sequel Pro, and Git.

Automatic Backup

For to be prepared worst-case scenarios like losing everything on your site, having backups of your WordPress site is critical. A managed WordPress hosting includes automatic backups for no additional charge. It takes the backup of data or the technical requirements to run it regularly.

Scalability

Managed WordPress hosting also means to scale your business as needed. It has a configuration to keep up with the increase in database requests caused by sudden traffic increases.

7 key points to choose managed WordPress hosting

Consumers looking for a hosting service have many choices. WordPress Managed Hosting is a good option but there are some important points while choosing a company for WordPress Managed Hosting.

WordPress is one of the most popular CMS with more than 60% of the market share. That means, almost 1/3 of the websites online are powered by WordPress. While the developers are adding new features to the popular CMS, the demand for managed WordPress hosting is also increasing continuously. There are some key points that you have to be careful while choosing a WordPress Managed Hosting. Here are 7 important issues for hosting customers.

Life span of the company

Hosting your WordPress website is a daunting process. It needs highly experienced staff and long life span of the web hosting services. If a host brand existed less than a year, you should tread with caution. But you have to consider that there are many bad firms that have been in the sector for long years. If you have things like an independent backup of your website, it will be easy to move on should they shut up shop unexpectedly.

Migrating WordPress sites

The chosen web host should migrate your sites across to their platform for free. They should have deep knowledge about their platform inside out and should manage the moving process flawlessly on their infrastructure. During the migration, they must operate your site at an optimal level on their platform for ensuring zero downtime for your site.

Backup service

Be careful about backup service while choosing a WordPress hosting company. They will advertise that they backup their websites. It is important to choose a hosting company that offers two types of backup Instant Backup and daily offsite backups. Instant Backups allow you to take a snapshot of your website or restore the site in case of a corrupted plugin update. They should also take daily offsite backups that are stored away from our central infrastructure for safekeeping. In case of data loss on the central infrastructure, your website can be restored quickly. Also, it allows downloading a full copy of your website with full details like images, etc. whenever you want by using the control panel.

Reliability of the system

It is an opportunity to have information about what kind of system the web host is running and how much protection this gives your website, and which type of server is used. This information is essential because if your website traffic augments suddenly, you have to be sure that the system behind your website has the capacity to handle the traffic increase. You can prefer hosting services that use N-tier enterprise HA architecture that has been built from the ground up.

Protection for cyberattacks and malware

Managed WordPress hosting service must handle ‘good’ traffic and also handle brute force/hacking attempts. It should have preventative measures that harden your website from getting infected with Malware. Most of the managed hosting services also have built-in WAF and periodic vulnerability assessment tools. Server hardening and web security counter-measures are taken by the service provider, which allows you to focus directly on your business instead of struggling with cyber attacks.

Overage’s price

Many WordPress hosts get much more revenue from overage visit billing. The hosting company should advise you on the best plan based on your current website traffic and should demand extra money only after a significant amount of time if your site’s traffic is much over your plan’s limits. In this case, the company should suggest a suitable cost-effectiveness upgrade.

Extra advantages

They should provide you a user-friendly control panel and additional tools, assignments for login to third parties, etc. Also, the hosting firm offers easy update options for site plugins or other elements in the system. It should make your life easier while managing your websites.
