If there’s anyone who has plenty of time to spare at work these days, we’d like to ask them how they do it. It seems like everyone is as busy and preoccupied with a thousand tasks at a time.

Many larger ones are going to have VPS hosting so that their site can handle traffic spikes, along with other advantages. But for many smaller business with a WordPress site they more practical choice is often to go with Managed WordPress hosting.

Many people will tell you that this is best for Vancouver WordPress hosting services because it is get-it and forget-it hosting as the Managed part means everything is taken care of for you and you’re free to just look forward to checking in and track the number of new visitors and how many visits to the site have resulted in sales or interactions of other types with the website.

Maximized Site Performance
The difference between WordPress hosting and Linux is that with Managed WordPress hosting the service provides resources optimized for WordPress websites. This is in comparison to general web hosting services and offered to accommodate a variety of content management systems. With WordPress hosting it is designed solely for WordPress sites. The servers used to host the sites are configured to be best for WordPress plugins and themes, and site performance and reliability is so much better when it’s WordPress hosting.
WordPress hosting services also usually come with simplified setup processes, like one-click WordPress installation and this makes it even better for beginners who have put together a website for the first time. This type of hosting tends to be very budget friendly too, but there’s still the same level of needed security measure built into it too. Something is that especially important if any types of transactions are being made through your site. With Vancouver WordPress hosting services it’s standard to also offer SSL Certs and other things the new business website might need.
Start with enhanced speed and optimized performance and made possible by having resources allocated specifically for WordPress web hosting. Every business with a website will understand the need to rank high on search pages and how SEO is integral to whether that happens or not. If you have your site with WordPress hosting it is almost certainly going have the home page load faster for visitors, and that is a big positive contributor and having those visitors be pleased with your site. Most WordPress hosting providers in Canada also offer access to CDNs (content delivery networks) and server-level caching, and this promotes faster load times too.
Better Defenses
Improved security is definitely at the front alongside performance when it comes to the advantages here, and customer support for WordPress hosting is a good way for people to be reassured of how their website and data are protected from any threat online. WordPress hosting services provide robust security features, such as DDoS protection, automatic backups and malware scanning so that data is kept private and only available to you. And the SSL certificates we talked about earlier there will protect data transmission between your site and visitors. For sites that handle personal information or transactions this is always going to something that is very much needed.
If a website needs to be changed to accommodate web traffic then what needs to happen is scaling on the site. WordPress hosting plans can be scaled to handle traffic surges as more people start to come to the site, and in some instances a lot of them at the same time. That’s something you’ll want to have happen, and of course it means your website is giving your business the visibility it was hoping for.
More simplicity with site management is something you can also have with this type of web hosting. It lines up nicely as ease of construction is what made WordPress a big hit with people in the first place and building a unique site quickly with themes and plugins is what allowed them to becomes such a success. With Managed WordPress hosting you can get automatic updates for both core files and WordPress plugins, enhancing security and reducing maintenance.
Superior Support
We will circle back on more time to the topic of customer support for WordPress hosting and mention how most WordPress hosting providers will have assembled a dedicated support team that has expertise on-tap with anything related to the basic overview and management of a WordPress website, along troubleshooting WordPress plugins or guiding users through their WordPress installation. Then once everything is up and running this same support can be relied upon for ensuring that the site’s performance remains optimal.
Customers are always going to expect a 99% uptime guarantee for web hosting these days too, and the reason they need to have that from their provider is any amount of website downtime can end up resulting in visitor loss and lower search rankings. We have customer support for WordPress hosting and can address platform-specific issues like WordPress installation problems or plugin conflicts. For other types of sites it will usually be that Linux OS web hosting is best, and for small businesses it will usually be best to go with a standard shared hosting arrangement.
Shared hosting is an economical solution where several websites share server resources, and many managed web hosting customers will have their sites on shared hosting with other WordPress websites. There will be enough bandwidth to go around for all based on the fact the different sites are all smaller and none of them are likely to be experiencing traffic spikes. And don’t think because it’s shared hosting that you’ll be getting less with customer support for WordPress hosting – that’s never how it’s going to go.
Consider VPS
If it becomes a situation where that is not the case for your website anymore then you may want to move over to VPS hosting. Virtual Private Server (VPS) hosting provides dedicated resources within a shared environment, and it’s always going to be the most ideal fit for higher traffic and improved control. VPS can be advisable for medium-sized WordPress websites that need a balance of affordability and performance. It’s unlikely a WordPress site would need what comes with a fully dedicated server, but if they are then going with dedicated web hosting is something that business can be looking into. More realistic is that Cloud web hosting may start making sense and here at 4GoodHostig we have personal, business, and advanced cloud options.
Cloud hosting is the best use of resources, as with it they are spread across multiple servers and this equates to huge gains with flexibility and scalability. These aspects of Vancouver WordPress hosting services are the ones they will speak of first when recommending the service to others they know, and they’ll be taking about enhancing the site’s performance, security, and the ease with which they can be managing the website through the cPanel controls.
