1. High Availability and Uptime

Website availability and server uptime are essential for online businesses. Downtime can lead to lost revenue, tarnish your brand’s reputation, and lower your site’s search engine visibility. While web hosts often promise 99% uptime, actual performance may vary.

High traffic to a WordPress site can strain server resources due to its dynamic functionality. An optimized WordPress host utilizes intelligent caching and robust database solutions to keep your site functional and responsive during peak times.

At Pagely, we offer dual-layer uptime monitoring to maintain high availability. Our support team promptly addresses any potential downtime triggers. By proactively resolving issues, we prevent disruptions, setting us apart as a top hosting provider. We proactively monitor resource usage and send notifications when limits are nearing. Our system checks sites post-updates to ensure they are functioning properly.

2. Expert Support

A hosting company without WordPress specialization may struggle with resolving WordPress-specific issues efficiently. Opting for Managed WordPress Hosting ensures immediate assistance from experts with the necessary experience. 

Quality WordPress technical support is crucial. Seek a host with dedicated and skilled engineers who can effectively troubleshoot complex issues. Visit the company’s About Us page to learn more about their support team.

4. Automatic Updates

Managed WordPress Hosting simplifies updating WordPress and plugins, essential for site security, performance, and compatibility.

A quality WordPress host will handle WordPress updates and monitor their impact on your site through automated tests. If an issue arises, updates can be rolled back to restore site function.

5. WordPress Specific Security

Shared hosting may leave your website vulnerable to cyber attacks and malware. Managed WordPress Hosting offers a more secure option with routine software updates and specialized security features to protect against hackers and malware. Choosing a managed WordPress host means your site will receive regular security checks and prompt malware removal.

To enhance security, your host should implement a dynamic WAF to block code injection attacks, known exploits, and limit access attempts. Additionally, real-time malware scanning of every WordPress installation should be conducted to detect trojans, viruses, worms, and other threats.

In the event that security defenses fail, your host should have a daily backup of your site to restore from. These automatic backups become invaluable should your site become compromised.

6. Premium DNS

The Domain Name System (DNS) is, essentially, the phone book of the internet. When you enter a domain name like pagely.com into a web browser, the browser uses DNS to translate the domain name into an Internet Protocol (IP) address, which tells the browser where to get the desired webpage.

Investing in a premium DNS provider is crucial to ensure your domain names stay online. Unlike standard hosting packages, premium DNS, like Amazon’s Route53 service, offers faster DNS query responses and enhanced availability through redundant infrastructure.

7. Developer-Friendly Tool 

With Managed WordPress Hosting we offer advanced developer tools like SSH, staging, GIT, and WP-CLI, along with essentials such as SFTP, database access, and error/access logs. It also supports custom PHP extensions like New Relic and provides system crontab access.

The ability to quickly clone your live site and test your changes is hugely beneficial so you can also push updates back to your production site using your own workflows.

8 Scalability

WordPress scalability is crucial for online businesses to handle sudden traffic increases effectively. A surge in pageviews due to factors like celebrity endorsements requires a hosting platform that can accommodate the additional database requests. WordPress is highly scalable when the hosting configuration is optimized for high traffic demands.

As your business grows and your site gains more traction, you’ll require additional website resources to keep things running smoothly as any unexpected downtime could lead to lost sales and damage to your brand reputation.

We recommend choosing a host who has built its hosting stack and solutions-oriented services specifically to address the complex scaling, security, and performance needs of the world’s biggest brands.

9. Fast Page Loads Around The World

Small businesses using shared hosting typically use caching plugins and Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) to optimize page speed. 

For example, PressCACHE technology is a global WordPress acceleration system. It works much like a CDN, but was designed specifically for WordPress page output. It handles the server-level caching of your site content to speed up the delivery of your pages. All you need to do is turn it on, then sit back and enjoy the speed.

PressCACHE is also responsible for globally serving your content from one of Amazon’s data centers in the United States, Asia, and Europe. It routes the requests for your website to the global Point of Presence (PoPs) servers closest to the user. This shortens the distance between visitors and your website, speeding the load time of your site to a global audience.
