Colorado Web Hosting - Supporting Clients Around the Globe

Website Hosting & Maintenance Plans Available

All sites must live somewhere online, which is called Hosting. I can host your website under an established US-based WordPress technology providers (typically FlyWheel or WPMUDEV).

Not only can you be totally hands-off with your site, but choosing a maintenance plan with me is extra beneficial if your site has any customized plugins on it – it’s just hard for many non-tech savvy persons to understand the ins and outs of custom features, and edit these plugins. Having me right next to you for at least that first year is beneficial.

Why choose me over others? Glad you asked! Are you so over terribly slow and buggy hosting providers? Is your site taking way too long to the naked eye to load? Is GoDaddy telling you that you have exceeded your bandwith and they want an absurd amount to upgrade your site?
I’ve been over that too.
Having a reliable human, using solid server technology speed, a person networked in technical best practices, AND one that knows you and your business when you grow – is critical. It can ensure operations stay up, your leads keep coming in, and someone is available work on issues and growth!

What to look for in a website hosting service

There are three main reasons why I am really picky about website hosting providers:

High Page Speed is important for the user experience and avoiding lower bounce (abandon) rates. The longer a site takes to load - especially on a mobile device or cellular service - the more likely the reader will exit the site before reading about your product. Google also gives low priority to your site in search if its not scoring to their speed preference. Industry experts say that a google page speed score above 70% is passable. However, the higher the better to prevent that abandoning risk.
Website security is critical to keep your website up and running and not putting your customers at risk. Security can be stronger with certain website hosts that have a dedicated server for your website (typically on the pricy end but good for certain or large businesses/corporations). Or, hosts that use a 'containerized' structure operate in a safe silo and cannot be affected by other websites that might get infected with malware.
Client Support is extremely important for me and it directly impacts my client's experience too. Sometimes things break, sometimes there is a technology hiccup that needs to be remedied. This is where stellar customer service, highly informed and educated staff stands out and is your moneys worth.

If after checking out my website hosting service you don’t see a good fit – let’s talk more, as I usually can recommend hosting providers that are known in the industry to meet these elements that ensure a safe, fast and reliable web site.

Hosting FAQ's

Is there a Contract requirement for the hosting service, and how is the setup process handled?

When opting for our hosting service, there’s no need to worry about being locked into a contract. Payments renew month to month which keeps the site healthy and active month to month.

If you choose to migrate your site to your own hosting, or another service, you are welcome to do that. Just give me 30 days notice and the prior renewal payments are not refundable as I am always working behind the scenes and incurring expenses month to month to keep sites up and running.

As for getting started, the setup process couldn’t be more straightforward. Upon signing up, your account is activated, site is published, and you have an Admin user ID enabling you to dive in and edit the site as needed (or just use me for your editing needs).

What Technical Features and Supported Plugins are Included in these Hosting Plans?

I apply a paid image optimization tool, a paid speed optimization tool, a paid security plugin to exclude unwanted locations from even knowing your site exists, anti spam plugins, and email deliverability features. All of this runs behind the scenes and may not be ‘seen’ but after rescuing sites that did not have these features and comparing them side by side – the difference has been very obvious for my clients.

Depending on the site, some additional design tools such as lifetime paid licenses for Divi, or my paid Elementor Pro subscription, or Gravity Forms pro features, may be included on your site. These design tools offer seamless styling and User Experience features across the entire site, and takes care of a many front-end design elements for you (instead of hard-coded CSS or scripts, which can be extremely difficult for your average staff member to find and edit).

These advancements are expenses that I pay for to ensure my sites are performing better. Please know should you migrate your site elsewhere some of these licenses may expire. This may not be so bad, as your new host may also have their own licenses they prefer to apply.

How much disc space is available?

The Startup plan offering 10GB is perfect for your simpler service based informational site that does not have additional modules such as ECommerce, Events Modules, Booking Modules on it.

If your site has many pages/products, is an ECommerce or Membership site with many matierials, is an Events site or Directory site – all of these features run more processes at once and they store more data on your disk space. This means they are better suited for the Growth or Prime plans.

Most often small business sites are good for the Startup and Growth plans.

What eCommerce or Booking features are supported on the hosting plans?

All sites include an SSL certificate which is pretty much essential for all sites whether they have eCommerce or not, as it conveys a signal of trust to your customer. eCommerce must have SSL.

When selecting a hosting service for your e-commerce platform, it’s crucial to ensure that it supports a range of essential features to enhance your online store’s functionality and security. Here’s a breakdown of what you can expect:

SSL Certificates: Most hosting providers offer both shared and private SSL certificates. Shared SSL is included with the hosting plan, helping to encrypt data across your website, while private SSL provides a unique certificate for your domain, boosting customer trust and security.
Shopping Cart / Booking Software: You’ll have access to popular shopping cart options such as WooCommerce or Shopify, Amelia Booking, WPBooking. These platforms offer customizable solutions to manage products, inventory, email communications, and customer bookings/orders efficiently.

What Accesses are provided to the site owner?

You are provided with a WordPress Admin login. This lets you do any task I can also accomplish on your site (if you want to).

There is the ability for you to have Hosting-level access as well. I typically exclude this access to keep security stronger however if you have a technical resource that needs access I have no issue creating a user for Control Panel, Files access, Backups access, etc.

If you are ever migrating your site I can create a hosting-level user for your point of contact that is taking care of the migration effort.
