Managed hosting and domains

We look after your website’s hosting, domain, SSL certificate and backups. Everything registered in your name, one point of contact, and no need to ever open a control panel full of acronyms.

It is for you if any of this sounds familiar

  • You do not know whose name your domain is in or when it expires
  • Your site is slow and the hosting was the cheapest you could find
  • Browsers flag your website as "Not secure"
  • You have never checked whether you have backups
  • Every problem ends up as a ticket with support that does not know your site
  • You want to switch providers without the website or email going down

What is included

Your website’s infrastructure sorted, monitored and documented.

01

Domain registration or transfer

We register your domain in your name or transfer it from your current provider with no downtime.

02

The right hosting

Servers chosen for the technology: WordPress-optimised hosting, or static infrastructure with a CDN for custom sites.

03

SSL certificate

HTTPS on every page, renewed automatically.

04

Backups

Automatic backups stored off the server, and restores if anything goes wrong.

05

Email on your domain

Accounts like [email protected] with the provider you prefer, plus SPF, DKIM and DMARC so messages stay out of spam.

06

Monitoring

Alerts if the site goes down, the certificate is about to expire or the domain renewal is coming up.

07

Zero-downtime migration

Moving your site from your current host, planned so there is no time offline.

How we manage it

  1. 1

    We review what you have

    Where the domain is, whose name it is in, which hosting you use, where email lives and when each item expires.

  2. 2

    We choose the hosting

    Based on your site’s technology, its traffic and where your customers are.

  3. 3

    We migrate without downtime

    We copy the site, test it on the new server and switch DNS only once everything works.

  4. 4

    We monitor and renew

    Backups, certificates, renewals and alerts, without you having to remember a thing.

How much do hosting and a domain cost?

Some costs apply to every website and others depend on the project:

You get a fixed written quote with the scope and timescales spelled out. Free and with no obligation.

How much a website costs, explained
  • Domain

    Renewed every year, priced by extension: .com, .es, .net…

  • Type of hosting

    A static custom site can be hosted very cheaply; a busy WooCommerce shop needs a server with more resources.

  • Business email

    Google Workspace, Microsoft 365 and similar providers charge per user.

  • Management

    Our management, backups and monitoring can be taken on their own or as part of website maintenance.

Common hosting and domain mistakes

Domain in someone else’s name

If an agency or a former employee registered it in their name, getting it back can be a serious problem. It must be in yours.

Letting the domain expire

One expired card is enough for the website and email to stop working overnight.

Backups on the same server

If the server fails, the backups stored on it fail too.

Choosing hosting on price alone

An overloaded server makes the site slow, and you pay for that in customers and rankings.

Hosting and domain FAQs

The usual questions about servers, domains, SSL and email, minus the acronym soup.

What is the difference between hosting and a domain?

The domain is your website’s address, for example yourcompany.com, and hosting is the server where its files are stored. They are bought separately, although often from the same provider, and a website needs both to work.

Whose name should my domain be registered in?

Always your company’s or yours as the registrant. Whoever handles the technical side can have access, but ownership must belong to the client. With us, it always does.

What is an SSL certificate and do I need one?

It lets your website run on HTTPS and show the padlock in the browser, because it encrypts data between the visitor and the site. Without it, browsers warn that the site is not secure, so today it is essential.

Can I change hosting without losing my website or email?

Yes, if it is planned: the site is copied to the new server, tested, email is checked, and only then is DNS switched. Done that way, visitors never notice.

What hosting does a WordPress website need?

One with an up-to-date PHP version, a database, caching and backups. For WooCommerce shops or busy sites, a plan with more resources than the entry level is advisable, because the cheapest shared hosting often falls short.

Can I have email on my own domain?

Yes. We set up accounts like [email protected] with the provider you prefer, along with the SPF, DKIM and DMARC records that keep your emails out of spam folders.

What happens if I want to move to another provider?

We give you the domain transfer code, a full copy of the website and the logins. The website and domain are yours to take whenever you like.
