Is the managed WordPress hosting industry coming to an end? I mean, is WordPress easy-to-grasp enough so that we no longer need any companies helping us out setting up our web servers, and then taking care of those servers on a regular basis?
Well, if you’re a developer working with WordPress every day, then you might want to believe that it’s indeed the case. For people like that, setting up efficient servers with Linode or DigitalOcean is a breeze. But as Chris Lema very accurately pointed out, WordPress is far from simple, especially for your parents, your neighbors, or whoever else simply wants a website without getting their hands dirty.
What is managed WordPress?
Managed WordPress is a hosting package optimized for easily building and managing WordPress websites. The term “managed” for WordPress means that all the server-related responsibilities and tasks are handled for you by the web host.
This usually includes things like installing WordPress itself, handling backups, updates, plus security and performance checks.
Agreed. I would say the best I’ve used (and i’ve used siteground, InMotion, Pagely, WpEngine)
Lightning base support and performance fantastic!
Siteground were not bad but the CPU limits were painful
Yes, absolutely right! +1 for Lightning base!
You missed ecomlane, great managed super fast dedicated servers. Been with them for just over a year, and I’m extremely happy with them!
