Managed Hosting
Managed Hosting Plus provides secure, high-performance WordPress hosting that removes the technical burden from your business. Your site is hosted on optimized servers with proactive monitoring, uptime protection, and performance tuning so your website loads fast, stays online, and works reliably as the foundation of your digital marketing funnel.
Updates & Maintenance
Your website is actively maintained with regular WordPress core, theme, and plugin updates to prevent compatibility issues and security risks. This service ensures your site remains stable, functional, and current—eliminating the risk of outdated software quietly breaking forms, layouts, or lead capture tools.
Security & Malware Protection
Subscription includes layered security protections designed to prevent hacks, malware injections, and unauthorized access. Firewalls, malware scanning, and threat mitigation work continuously in the background to protect your brand reputation, customer trust, and business continuity.
Daily Backups & Recovery
Automatic daily backups ensure your website can be quickly restored in the event of a failure, hack, or accidental content deletion. This safety net protects your investment and minimizes downtime, allowing your business to recover fast without costly rebuilds or lost data.
On-Page SEO
Your site is structured with proper SEO fundamentals, including metadata setup, indexing controls, and performance considerations that help search engines understand and rank your content. While not a full SEO campaign, this ensures your website is not a visibility liability and is positioned to support future growth efforts.
Analytics & Performance Monitoring
Integrated analytics provide insight into how visitors find and use your website. This data helps identify what’s working, where users drop off, and how your site supports broader marketing goals—giving you clarity instead of guesswork when making future marketing decisions.
Technical Support & Guidance
You gain access to knowledgeable support that understands both WordPress and marketing strategy. Instead of generic hosting tickets, you receive guidance aligned with your business goals—whether troubleshooting issues, improving performance, or advising on next-step upgrades within your digital ecosystem.
Funnel-First Website Philosophy

F.A.Q.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Managed Hosting Plus enough if I’m on a tight marketing budget?
There are cheaper options—and plenty of DIY solutions. The real question isn’t price; it’s value versus time, risk, and opportunity cost.
You’ll need to decide:
-
How much of your own time you’re willing to spend maintaining your site
-
How much risk you’re willing to accept from missed updates, security gaps, or performance issues
-
What level of investment is required to gain and protect market share in your industry
Managed Hosting Plus is designed for professionals who understand that a website is a business asset, not a hobby. It removes technical friction, reduces risk, and ensures your site is marketing-ready when opportunities arise—without requiring a full marketing spend.
If your goal is to grow visibility and credibility while staying lean, Managed Hosting Plus represents a measured, strategic investment, not an all-or-nothing commitment.
What exactly is Managed Hosting Plus—and how is it different from basic web hosting?
Managed Hosting Plus is not just a server—it’s active website stewardship.
Instead of simply “keeping your site online,” we manage, protect, optimize, and update your website every month. This includes hosting, ongoing WordPress core/theme/plugin updates, dual-layer security, daily backups, SEO fundamentals, image and page optimization, and CDN delivery for speed and reliability .
The result: your website stays secure, fast, current, and professional—not stale or vulnerable.
How does Managed Hosting Plus support SEO and performance?
Search engines reward speed, security, and structure. Managed Hosting Plus includes on-page SEO fundamentals, image compression, page optimization, and a Content Delivery Network (CDN) to improve load times across devices and locations .
This gives your site a technical SEO advantage—even before content marketing or paid ads are added.
Why does my website need monthly updates if nothing looks broken?
Because most website problems aren’t visible until they cost you money.
Outdated plugins and themes are the #1 cause of hacks, slow load times, broken forms, and SEO penalties. Managed Hosting Plus proactively updates and tests your site every month, ensuring compatibility, security, and performance—before issues impact your credibility, rankings, or leads .
Who is Managed Hosting Plus best suited for?
Managed Hosting Plus is designed for independent life insurance agents and small agencies of 10 or fewer producers, especially those not captive to a single national insurance carrier.
It’s an ideal fit for agencies that:
-
Represent multiple carriers and need a neutral, professional web presence
-
Compete locally against larger, brand-heavy firms
-
Rely on credibility, education, and relationships to earn trust
-
Generate business through referrals, networking, community involvement, and organic search
-
Want a stable, compliant website that won’t require constant technical oversight
For independent agencies building their own brand—not borrowing one—Managed Hosting Plus provides a secure, scalable foundation that supports growth today and allows for easy expansion into marketing automation, social media, and lead generation as the agency grows.
What if I don’t have a website—or my current site is useless?
As part of our on-boarding process, we evaluate the effectiveness of your current website (if one exists). This includes reviewing structure, performance, security, SEO basics, messaging clarity, and whether the site actually supports lead generation and credibility.
If you don’t have a website, or if your existing site is outdated or ineffective, we’ll outline clear, practical recommendations—ranging from cleanup and optimization to replacement—based on your goals, timeline, and budget.
The purpose of Managed Hosting Plus isn’t to force a redesign; it’s to ensure you’re starting with a functional, professional foundation that won’t hold your business back as you grow.
