Managed WordPress Hosting + Care

Unlike shared hosting, Virtual Private Server (VPS) provides baseline resources that you’re guaranteed, as well as additional resources available at a moment’s notice should your site experience a traffic spike.

Brute force attacks are some of the most common ways that attackers gain access to a WordPress site. We protect against this both at the site and server level; multiple failed attempts means malicious users can never get inside.

FlyCache is Flywheel’s proprietary caching engine, specifically designed to make WordPress sites fly. It’s especially powerful because it works side-by-side with our CDN to serve up cached content from global points of presence (POP). When your users hit your site, they receive those files from the server that is geographically closest to them, which decreases load time, improves performance, and ensures all users have the same high-quality digital experience (no matter where they’re located)!

Get closer to your users with global availability. A Content Delivery Network (CDN) speeds up page loads for your site’s visitors, and you’re experiencing the absolute best version of it with Fastly! Unlike traditional CDNs that only cache site assets (*.css, *.js, etc.), our CDN offers full-page caching, which includes the full HTML of your pages. This vastly improves your time to first byte (which is super good for SEO)! Fastly is an industry leading CDN provider trusted by some of the biggest sites in the world: BuzzFeed, the New York Times, Yelp, Pinterest, Twitter, and more. Now, your site can leverage those resources!

With data centers around the world, you’ll be able to launch new sites close to your users no matter where you’re located. Choose from data centers in North America, Australia, United Kingdom, and the European Union, with new locations to come.

Each WordPress site on our platform will heal itself in the event of any service failure. As an example: If there are issues with PHP, your site won’t go down…it’ll just fix itself!

When you host your sites with us, you’ll not only enjoy the blazing-fast speeds and global availability that comes with our powerful cloud-based platform, you’ll also benefit from free SSL certification, too! No more bouncing between your host and a third-party provider. Just choose a plan and the rest is smooth sailing.

Your sites are backed up automatically every night. Catastrophe may never befall any of your sites (every developer just laughed), but at the very least you might want to roll back at some point. Our backups run every night, are stored for 30 days, and you can restore at any time.

If your site does get hacked, we’ll jump in right away and get to work cleaning up the infection. We’ll also notify you of our progress along the way. Again, that’s for free!

Intelligent IP blocking on our security systems detects intruders and blocks them across all sites within seconds. So your site’s protected from hackers before they even try to attack your site.

No doubt you want your WordPress software to always be running the most up-to-date and secure version. Admittedly keeping up-to-date can be a painful task. But you’re in luck — we handle all of the core WordPress updates for you.

Did you know that out-of-date plugins are one of the most common ways for hackers to gain access to your site?

Monthly plugin updates

Each month, our plugin updates team will manage each site enrolled in plugin updates. We’ll provide a report on each update we do.

No downtime, guaranteed

Never worry about a plugin update taking down your site again. Our Managed Plugin Updates guarantee that if a plugin update breaks your site, we’ll roll it back and help you understand why.

Stay secure without the work

Flywheel’s managed hosting platform keeps your site secure. However, when your plugins are out-of-date, your site is at risk. With Managed Plugin Updates, you’ll be able to rest easy knowing your site is using the latest plugins.

Your website doesn’t exist in a vacuum. Most likely, your website is connected in some manner to other apps that your business relies on. Perhaps you have a contact form that sends leads to your CRM. Maybe your e-commerce store sends orders to your shipping software for processing and fulfillment. These integrations are crucial for data continuity throughout your organization.

By monitoring these integrations and ensuring they are running without issues, you can rest easy knowing that critical business data isn’t being lost somewhere in the cloud.

Avoid privacy-related fines and lawsuits. If your website has a contact form, you need to have a Privacy Policy in place and keep it up to date as new disclosures become required by law.

By partnering with Iubenda, we can offer auto-updating legal pages (e.g., Privacy Policy, Terms of Service, EULA) written by actual lawyers that are experts in privacy law.

When new laws are passed that affect your business, your legal pages will automatically update behind the scenes without you having to lift a finger.

Several privacy laws already exist and protect the Personally Identifiable Information (PII) of its citizens. Over a dozen more states have proposed their own unique privacy laws, and several of them will enable citizens to sue businesses, of any size and location, simply for having a contact form without a compliant Privacy Policy.

Performance metrics

We’ll generate a report with the most important metrics such as load time, time to first byte, and the number of network requests, just to name a few! You’ll also see the overall caching performance and other performance metrics that only your host can provide.
