Fast, Secure, Managed WordPress Hosting

Why would you choose SixFive – and not a brand name Managed WordPress host like Kinsta, WP Engine or Flywheel?

We used to be Flywheel fans, still are to a degree for certain use cases, but here’s the thing – they are all black boxes. They are very opaque about what they provide, and whilst they provide great service and support for keeping your site up and the WordPress core, they can’t help with regards your site plugins, optimisation and development. They do have some maintenance services, but these are largely automated updates.

Their performance / caching systems largely only work for sites where the user does not login – and so e-commerce and membership sites need a much more expensive plan because of the need for more CPU.

They won’t tell you when your site has been hacked, this is up to you to work out. We migrated a site from one of these sites in 2022 and found it had a bitcoin miner on it (!), how long it had been there, we have no idea!

SixFive provides a technology stack as good as, if not better far better than any other big name Managed WordPress host. Our platform will outstrip the performance of large traffic sites and WooCommerce / Education /  Membership sites where users need to login, or the pages are different for just that one user.

We don’t have any hard limits on bandwidth, storage or traffic, and we can be very flexible when it comes to upgrades and keeping your site ticking over.

You can choose to host your site where your audience resides, great for speed and user experience, in over 20 countries! Very often these providers lock you in to hosting everything in one country, not great if your audience is international.

Not confident in the regular management, or updating of your site? Our WordPress Care Plans give you the peace of mind that we’re actively looking at your site, and can help you update it as required. We also provide premium plugins at no cost to you!

Absolutely!

We know how painful it can be to move a WordPress site from one server to another, and that’s why we help our customers move their sites – FOR FREE. Whether you’re moving 1 or 100 sites, our migration team will move your site(s) as quickly and efficiently as possible.

All we need is a WordPress Administrator account, and we’ll get your site transferred and set up as a demo site under your account. You can then review it to see how everything performs, and make sure everything is in place!

We’ll even take a walk through it and recommend any changes or updates that may be required to take full advantage of our platform.

The location of your site can have a negative impact on your visitor experience and Google rankings. There are lots of privacy implications about your data location as well, for example if you collect data from EU Citizens you need to ensure that data does not leave the EU, this isn’t just a Privacy Policy issue that can be fixed with legal jargon – it’s a geographical issue.

We can host your site in any of these locations, just let us know where you would like to be!

We’ve spent years architecting our platform to be the speediest option available for Managed WordPress Hosting. In fact, we’re more than happy to move a copy of your site so you can compare it with your current host! If you’re thrilled with the performance, then we can help you choose a plan. 🙂

Here are stats of two sites we moved:

Site: professionalplanner.com.au
Before: 11.32s (Internal managed VPS)
After : 526ms

Site: medic52.com
Before: 907ms (Well known Managed WordPress Hosting provider)
After: 183ms

Oh, and did we mention that your site comes with much, much more than just great speed?

I’ll point you to two pages to explain why this company should not be one you consider doing business with:

1. GoDaddy – ProductReview.com.au reviews
2. GoDaddy: Hackers stole source code, installed malware in multi-year breach – Bleeping Computer Feb 2023

Warm failover is a high availability setup that keeps a copy of your site on a completely separate location and keeps both up to date on a regular basis.

This is then linked with automatic DNS failover that will switch your DNS records to your backup server if your primary server goes down in a few moments.

You will be required to have your DNS on Cloudflare, and a paid Cloudflare account.

Warm failover is suitable for clients with sites that cannot afford more than a few minutes of outage. This may be because you are implementing significant ad campaign, email marketing and lead generation – any outage will result in loss of a potential client.

Think of it as an insurance policy for catastrophic failure of internet connectivity or server outage.

Note this is not suitable for Ecommerce sites as the time to replicate the data may result in customer and order data being out of sync between the two locations in the event of a failover.
