We're going to ask you a question, and we want you to be honest with us.
Have you ever bought a WordPress package for your website, built it, pushed it out to production, and then...that's it? Did you forget to go in and maintain it, like updating your plugins and installing the latest versions of WordPress?
We're all friends here, so we're not going to judge you if the answer to that question is yes. In fact, many of us have done the exact same thing. When it comes to website maintenance, we'd rather just set it and forget it.
Well, good news! We designed our brand spankin' new Managed WordPress hosting package for this very reason.

Why would you want to make the switch to Managed WordPress? Here's a few reasons (hint: most of them use the word "automatic"):
Automatic Patches: We automate the security patching process to fix vulnerabilities and remove threatening malware in real-time. Say goodbye to those weird spammers that add random pharmaceutical links to your website (what's their deal? Seriously.)
Automatic Updates: As we mentioned above, it's easy to forget about updating your WordPress software. That's why we've now automated the process, so you won't ever have to worry about it. Consider it an extra layer of protection from those weird spammer guys.
Free SSL certificate: Have you heard? Google has made the decision to start marking any website that doesn't have a valid SSL certificate installed as "unsafe" later this year. An SSL certificate encrypts the data that is being sent to and from your website, like payment information. Anyway, Google really isn't cool with the fact that you don't have one. Thankfully, our Managed WordPress package includes one for free.
Automatic Backups: Let's say something bad happens and your website just disappears into the ether, or whatever it is that websites do. Not to worry, because Managed WordPress has automatic backups. Your site is safe with us!
There are many, many more reasons to start running your website on Managed WordPress, but by this point you are probably feeling a bit like Fry from Futurama, telling us to shut up and shoving his money into our faces.
