Managing everything that is associated with your web hosting account can be a pain especially when you don’t have a background in web development. A WordPress Managed Hosting plan will help to alleviate the headache associated with these tasks. Not all hosting providers deliver the same level of service, below are features to look for when picking out your next hosting plan.
Uptime:Â Your website needs to be accessible 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Look for a service that provides at least 99% uptime.
Speed:Â Your website needs to load quickly, or you will lose potential customers, look for a service that provides an optimized server setup that will translate into a speedy user experience.
Security:Â Your website should be protected by top notch security policies and procedures, be sure to pick a service that is transparent in their protocols and look for features like malware protection, DDoS detection and the ability to scan for malware.
Backups: You should store at least 30 days’ worth of daily backups so you can easily restore to a previous version should your site break or get hacked. Look for a service that provides automated backups.
Support:Â Even though the service will be managing many aspects of your hosting plan you will want to choose a service that provides quality support 24/7 365 days a year in the event of an emergency.
There are multiple companies providing managed hosting services, when making a choice on which you will go with, please do your research, and choose the plan best fitted for your needs while taking into thought the features I listed above.
