Common questions

Server management FAQs

What hosting providers do you manage servers on?

We manage servers on DigitalOcean, Vultr, Linode/Akamai, AWS (EC2 and Lightsail), Google Cloud, Cloudways, and dedicated servers at any data center. If it runs Linux, we can manage it.

Do you set up new servers from scratch?

Yes. Server setup is a one-time project (97–97 depending on complexity) that includes full OS installation, web server stack, PHP, MySQL, security hardening, backups, and WordPress deployment. Ongoing management is then handled under a monthly plan.

How quickly do you respond to server emergencies?

Essential plan: best-effort, usually within 4 hours. Professional plan: 2-hour response. Enterprise plan: 30-minute response SLA guaranteed. All plans include emergency contact information for after-hours incidents.

Can you manage my server if I use cPanel or Plesk?

Yes. We manage both cPanel/WHM and Plesk environments, including multi-account reseller setups. We can also migrate you off cPanel to a leaner, faster custom server stack if that's better for your needs.
