While gathering information on how and where to host your WordPress website, you might have come across a hosting plan termed “Managed WordPress Hosting”. Managed WordPress Hosting is a hosting plan that is dedicated to WordPress specific hosting, which comes with loads of resources and environments that help WordPress run efficiently. Oftentimes, you find outrageous price tags on these plans and you start wondering if the plan is worth the price. The answer to this question lies in the package provided by each hosting provider. A2 Hosting’s Managed WordPress Plans cost between $12.97USD to $37.97USD monthly. Considering the features provided by the plan, it is for you to judge whether it is overpriced or underpriced.
Why is Managed Hosting always expensive?
If you’ve done your research well, you would have noticed that this type of hosting plan is always more expensive than the typical hosting plan, reason being that Managed Hosting as the name suggests is being managed by the hosting providers, you only have to work on your contents while most of the technical tasks such as installation, backup, upgrading etc. are handled for you. And someone has to pay resources used in performing these technical tasks on your web server. Furthermore, this type of hosting makes use of a dedicated server; a server where a single website is isolated with enough resources. Dedicated servers are known to be very fast. Thus, it tends to be more expensive than common hosting service.
In what way is Managed WordPress better than shared WordPress hosting?
• Speed: you should know how important the speed of a website is, it improves user experience, boost SEO and increase website popularity, thus, increases generated revenue.
• Security: hosting a website on a dedicated server is another layer of security on its own because the website is isolated makes it less to be vulnerable to virus or hackers attack.
• Resources: a Managed Hosting plan always has abundant resources at its disposal, while websites hosted on a shared server and a website hosted on a dedicated server has all the available resources to its self. Now you must have seen the reason why dedicated server will always perform better.
