What £25 a month pays for

Hosting is more than server space. It’s keeping your website safe and working.

  • Domain name

    Your web address registered and renewed.

  • SSL certificate

    The padlock in the browser, so visitors and Google trust your site.

  • Monthly backups

    A recent copy of your site if anything goes wrong.

  • Security

    Monitoring and hardening against hackers and malware.

  • Backend updates

    WordPress, theme and plugins kept up to date.

  • Professional email

    One 2GB email account at your own domain.

Why every site is hosted in-house

Because I host every website I build, I can keep it backed up, secure and updated myself, and fix problems quickly without waiting on a third-party hosting company.

Online shops are hosted for £250 to £600 a year depending on their size.
