HostPapa launches Managed WordPress Hosting for agencies and businesses, with sites that respond up to 44% faster

HostPapa, a Managed.com company, has launched Managed WordPress Hosting, a service built for agencies, developers and growing businesses that run WordPress sites. In live production, sites on the new platform respond up to 44% faster at the server. As a fully managed service, HostPapa takes care of performance, security and routine upkeep, so agencies can spend their hours on billable client work. For an agency, every client WordPress website is a standing commitment. Plugins and themes update weekly, a small team often looks after dozens of client sites, and when one breaks, the agency gets the call. Much of that upkeep is never billed. HostPapa built Managed WordPress Hosting to take this off agencies' plates.

Faster pages, more revenue

Most web hosts speed up the pages they can cache. The pages that earn money usually cannot be cached: checkout, login, the WordPress admin and logged-in member areas. Managed WordPress Hosting speeds up those pages too. Every site runs in its own self-healing container with dedicated central processing unit (CPU) and memory, so a traffic spike on another site cannot slow a client's site down. Cloudflare's global enterprise edge network serves cached pages close to visitors, server-side caching speeds up the rest, and Brotli compression and HTTP/3 come built in.

Fewer emergencies, faster recovery

Every plan pairs the Cloudflare Enterprise Web Application Firewall (WAF) with a local website firewall, and adds distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) protection, bot and brute-force mitigation, SQL injection prevention, and continuous threat detection and blocking. Each WordPress site keeps its own container, database, storage and network rules, so a problem on one client's site stays on that site. Security logs show what the edge blocked, ready to share with clients. If something does go wrong, daily backups encrypted with AES-256, disaster-recovery backups and one-click restore bring a client's site back quickly.

Less upkeep, more billable work

Agencies can switch on automatic WordPress core, plugin and theme updates, and the platform keeps itself current without scheduled downtime. Teams test changes in staging and sync them to production from the HostPapa Dashboard, instead of editing live client sites. New sites are ready in minutes with automatic HTTPS. Developers work the way they already do, with SSH, SFTP, WP-CLI, Git and Composer access, and agencies can provision sites, group them into client projects and automate any dashboard task through the public application programming interface (API).

One plan instead of a stack of tools

Plans grow with an agency's client list. Every plan has staging, backups, security, caching and content delivery built in, so agencies don't have to add a separate plugin or service for each one, then keep them updated across every client site. "Agencies spend too much time maintaining WordPress websites and tuning them for performance. We want agencies to spend that time growing their business, in front of their clients and driving revenue," said Jamie Opalchuk, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Managed.com.”
