A faster, more secure, fully managed alternative to GoDaddy and other cheap WordPress hosting — run by a New England team, not an overseas queue. We work with small businesses across the region and handle the updates, backups, security, and speed so you can run yours.
Cheap hosting is cheap for a reason — you do the work, on servers packed with thousands of other sites. Here’s the difference, line by line.
| GoDaddy & cheap hosts | Site Schema | |
|---|---|---|
| Updates, backups & security | Mostly your job | We handle it for you |
| Server performance | Oversold shared servers | Right-sized, monitored 24/7 |
| Support | Tickets + constant upsells | Real human help, based in New England |
| Backups | Often a paid add-on | Nightly · 30-day retention |
| Uptime monitoring | Off until you activate it · 5-min default | On from day one · every minute |
| Catches a break behind a “200 OK” | Only if you set a keyword yourself | Yes — we read the page itself |
| Migration | Do it yourself | Free, done for you |
| Plain-language reports | No | Yes |
Want the long version? What “managed” actually covers.
Most hosts will tell you they monitor your site. What they usually mean is that something asks your server whether it’s awake. That misses the way WordPress actually breaks: the page still answers, it just isn’t your website any more.
A Manchester retailer can lose a whole weekend of orders to a checkout that broke on Friday night, with the site online the entire time. That’s the exact failure these checks exist to catch.
Not every five. From more than one region, with confirmation re-checks so a blip never becomes a false alarm — confirmed downtime reaches you by email in about two minutes.
A WordPress site with a database error answers a monitor with a normal “200 OK”. We recognise those failure screens by name, so a site that came back broken counts as down — and the alert says what we found.
How the checks workCatalogue, products from the database, the cart and whether a payment method is still being offered, and the checkout page — every five minutes, read-only, with no test orders.
What we check on a storeFree auto-renewing SSL, malware protection, and a hardened WordPress setup — managed for you.
Encrypted nightly backups with one-click restore and 30-day history. Hourly available for stores.
Server-level caching and tuned PHP keep your site quick — without you installing a single plugin.
A readable weekly summary of what’s healthy and what needs a look. No jargon, no dashboards to learn.
Talk to the people who actually run the platform — a New England company, not an overseas queue.
We move your site off GoDaddy (or any host) for free, with no downtime — usually within a day.
We’re a New England company based in Rhode Island, and we work with businesses throughout the region — including across the Granite State, from the Seacoast to the Lakes Region. Everything is done remotely and quickly; a phone call or video meeting is all it takes to get started.
Not on the list? We serve all of New Hampshire — and the rest of New England. Also serving Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Vermont, Maine.
New Hampshire’s small-business mix leans toward retail, trades, and hospitality — the tax-free retail corridor along the border, the trades serving a growing housing stock, and the lodging and outfitters of the White Mountains and Lakes Region.
These are businesses where the website’s job is concrete: get found, show what you do, and let someone call or book. That works only if the site is fast, secure, and up. We handle hosting, updates, backups, and monitoring so it keeps doing that job without anyone thinking about it.
For a shop, a contractor, or an inn, the site’s job usually ends in a phone call or a booking — which means the failure that costs you money is the quiet one. A WordPress site with a database error still answers a monitor with a cheerful “200 OK”, so we read the page a visitor would actually see and call those screens down by name.
Seasonal businesses also get seasonal traffic, and cheap shared hosting is at its worst precisely when a Lakes Region or White Mountains site is at its busiest. Server-level caching absorbs most of that spike, and you don’t have to install or configure anything to get it.
It is free, we do it for you, and your site stays up the whole time. Here is the whole process, so “no downtime” is something you can check rather than something you have to take our word for.
We take a full copy of the site — files, database, uploads, plugins, themes — and rebuild it on our servers. Nothing changes on your live site while this happens, and it keeps serving from your old host exactly as it did before.
The copy runs on a private address first. We walk the pages that matter — the homepage, contact form, and on a store the catalogue, cart and checkout — and fix anything the move disturbed. Most sites need nothing; older ones sometimes need a plugin updated to work on a current PHP version.
You get the private link and check it yourself. This is the point to say “the fonts look wrong” or “that form goes to the wrong inbox”, and nothing is switched over until you are happy.
One DNS change points your domain at the new copy. Both copies are live and identical through the changeover, so visitors reach a working site whichever one they land on — that is what “no downtime” actually means. SSL is issued and renewing before the switch, so no one meets a certificate warning.
Monitoring, nightly backups and updates start immediately. We keep an eye on the first days closely, because that is when anything the move missed shows up — and if something does, the backup from before the switch is one click away.
Most moves finish inside a day. A large store, or a site with something unusual bolted to it, can take longer — we will tell you which one you are before we start rather than after.
One site, fully looked after. Every plan includes free migration from GoDaddy, nightly backups, free SSL, security, and support.
