Managed WordPress hosting with built-in caching, staging environments and automated core updates.
The rankings are warming up.
Managed WordPress hosting (Kinsta, WP Engine, o2switch, Pressable) ships specialised caching (Object Cache, Edge Cache), automatic core and plugin updates, staging environments, daily backups included and WordPress-aware support. Performance is 2-5x better than classic shared hosting. Ideal for business-critical sites, WooCommerce e-commerce, high-traffic blogs. Pricing: 15-100 €/month for 1 site.
Shared hosting works fine up to ~10,000 visitors/month. Beyond that, or with heavy plugins, a managed VPS brings performance and stability. For e-commerce shops, a dedicated VPS is recommended from day one.
Managed WordPress (Kinsta, WP Engine, o2switch) costs more but bundles optimised caching, automatic updates, staging and backups - you save time and reduce risk. Worth it as soon as the site is business-critical.
WordPress is the most flexible with a huge ecosystem. Webflow excels at design with integrated hosting. Wix and Squarespace are the simplest but most limited. Pick based on the flexibility/simplicity trade-off you need.
