Managed Hosting

Hosting that actually
works for your business

Most business websites are sitting on slow shared hosting with no backups, expired SSL certificates and zero monitoring. W3IT provides fully managed hosting where everything is handled — so your site stays fast, secure and online.

99.9% uptime SLA
Daily automated backups
UK support real people, fast response

We host our own client sites on the same infrastructure. W3IT.com runs on Cloudflare Pages — a serverless, CDN-first stack with no origin server to go down. For WordPress and CMS sites, we use the same hardened hosting we manage for clients.

The Problem

Budget hosting costs more than you think

The monthly saving on cheap shared hosting is quickly erased by downtime, slow load times, security incidents and the hours spent managing it yourself.

  • Shared hosting is slow Your site shares a server with hundreds of others. One busy neighbour and your pages slow to a crawl — costing you search rankings and potential customers.
  • Backups aren't automatic Most budget hosts either don't back up, back up infrequently, or charge extra to restore. When something goes wrong, you discover the gap too late.
  • SSL certificates expire Browser "Not Secure" warnings kill visitor trust immediately. Without managed SSL renewal, this happens to every site eventually.
  • Nobody watching your site Without monitoring, a site that goes down at 2am stays down until a client calls to tell you — often hours later.

What's Included

Everything managed, nothing hidden

Every W3IT hosting plan includes the following as standard — not as paid add-ons.

01

Performance-Optimised Stack

CDN Caching PHP 8.x

Dedicated or VPS resources — never shared hosting. Full-page caching, CDN delivery via Cloudflare and server-side optimisation so your site loads fast regardless of traffic spikes. We configure the hosting stack to match your CMS.

02

Daily Automated Backups

Off-site 30-day retention One-click restore

Full-site backups run daily and are stored off-site in a separate data centre. 30-day retention as standard — 90-day available on request. Restores are tested quarterly so you know they actually work when you need them.

03

SSL Certificate Management

Auto-renewal HSTS HTTPS redirect

SSL certificates are provisioned, configured and renewed automatically — you will never see an expired certificate warning. HTTPS enforcement and HSTS headers are configured from day one.

04

Uptime Monitoring

60-second checks Instant alerts Status page

Your site is checked every 60 seconds from multiple locations. If it goes down, we're alerted immediately and begin investigating — often before you even notice. Monthly uptime reports are provided as standard.

05

Security Hardening

Firewall Malware Scan Login Protection

Web application firewall, automated malware scanning, login rate limiting and file integrity monitoring. For WordPress sites, we disable file editing, restrict admin access by IP and enforce strong password policies.

06

UK-Based Support

Email & Phone Same-day response

Support from real people who know your site — not a first-line ticket queue. Same-day response for non-urgent requests. Emergency response for hosting incidents. You deal directly with the engineer managing your hosting, not a call centre.
