Overview

What is Managed WordPress VPS?

A virtual private server (VPS) gives your website its own allocated share of server resources, rather than competing for them with many other sites on a shared server.

With a managed WordPress VPS, HostJockeys takes care of the server side for you. We prepare the environment with WordPress in mind, configure it around what your site needs, and look after the ongoing server management.

The result is hosting that has been thought through for your website, with a team you can talk to when you need help.

Questions

Managed WordPress VPS FAQs

How is a VPS different from shared hosting?

On shared hosting, many websites share the same server resources. A VPS provides your website with its own virtual server and allocated resources, which gives more control over how the environment is configured.

What does "managed" mean?

It means our team looks after the server environment on your behalf, rather than leaving the server administration to you. We'll explain exactly what is included for your setup when we discuss your requirements.

Can you help move my existing WordPress site?

Let us know where your site is currently hosted when you enquire. Moving your website can be discussed as part of planning your hosting.

Why isn't there pricing on the website?

Because each configuration is planned around the individual website, we discuss your requirements first and then provide details that reflect the setup you actually need. The exception is our Website + Hosting Package, which starts from $795.

I'm an existing client. Where do I log in?

Existing clients can access their account through the Client Login page.
