Need help moving your WordPress site to our platform? No problem. Our UK-based WordPress specialists are on hand to help migrate your data and advise on the best practices to ensure a smooth transition. We’ll make sure you avoid downtime and sidestep the hassle.
Intuitive control panel
Take complete control of your hosting account through our powerful and intuitive control panel. Manage your websites, email accounts, databases and subdomains, add billing and tech contacts, review usage, login to your WordPress site directly, and much more. Managing multiple websites or multiple clients just got a whole lot easier.
Millions of page views
We don’t place restrictions on your website traffic. Unlike other managed WordPress providers, there’s no limit to the number of page views or the volume of traffic that your site can process each month. Grow your site at your pace, without the worry of hitting a wall.
Extensive security measures
On creating your account, we install the latest WordPress release, direct from WordPress.org. Next, we harden your account using industry best practices. From there, you’re protected around the clock with our customised web application firewall (WAF), providing a multi-layered approach to security.
Managed automated updates
Keeping your site, themes and plugins up-to-date is the single most important step you can take to keep your site secure. We alleviate the stress, managing the whole update process for you. We also run daily updates on your container to ensure every component of your server is running the latest security and stability patches.
Free SSL certificates
Let’s Encrypt is an automated and open certificate authority that offers free SSL/TLS certificates. Just like a paid for SSL certificate, a Let’s Encrypt certificate provides HTTPS protection for your websites, and it’s all bundled into your service.
Daily backups
We back up your website every single day, which means you can roll back quickly anytime you need. Plus, all your backups are 100% free on our hosting platform.
PCI compliance
Handle sensitive customer data and credit card information, with added fraud protection across the entire payment ecosystem. All our WordPress Hosting accounts are PCI compliant, with security and procedural standards created by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council.
One click snapshots
Take an instant snapshot of your WordPress site and store up to five copies on our servers. You can also download your snapshot at any time to ensure you have an offline copy of your site for testing or portability.
Best-in-class performance
Faster page loads, less downtime and tighter security equals happier end users, and that means more business for you.
With our custom-built WordPress Hosting stack, we’re able to take command of the very best web technologies,
for the fastest WordPress Hosting experience possible.
We ran a speed test on two identical WordPress websites, one running on 34SP.com WordPress Hosting, the other on an unoptimised server. The difference in average response times speaks for itself.
Unoptimised server
Average response time
8.72s
34SP.com WordPress Hosting server
Average response time
0.009s
NGINX
We install an optimised version of Nginx, a fast web server with lower resource usage than the more commonly used Apache, and also combine that with Fast-CGI cache to speed up sites. We also use ngx_pagespeed, designed by Google to provide a range of performance improvements to any site.
REDIS
Even though SSD disks are fast, RAM is quicker. We cache your database content directly in RAM, so page requests are accelerated even further.
PHP-FPM
Process management with independent worker pools, and tuned to provide lightning-quick response times.
SSD STORAGE
Some of our supreme performance comes from the use of SSD drives to power each and every managed WordPress server we run. SSD drives remove the traditional bottleneck of disk input and output speed.

WordPress Hosting FAQs
What Is Managed WordPress Hosting?
Managed hosting is where we take over a lot of the management issues you would normally handle for your website. This means we optimise our platform to run WordPress as fast as possible for you. We also lock down and secure the platform specifically for WordPress. Finally, we also automatically update WordPress and your plugins for you, so you don’t have to worry about the technology of your site falling behind. With traditional website hosts, a lot of these tasks can fall on your shoulders.
How Do I Get Started With WordPress?
We automate as much as we can for you. We install the latest version of WordPress the moment your account is activated. We setup your databases, optimize your container and configure the plan the moment you create an account. Other items like adding SSL or a CDN to your site, are as quick as one simple click in our control panel too. Speaking of which, once your WordPress site is live with us, you can login to it with a single click from our control panel too – streamlining and simplifying your site management.
How Many Websites Can I Host?
We offer three plans that host one, five and ten WordPress websites. The plans are priced at £9.95, £29.95 and £49.95 per month respectively. The bigger the plan, the slightly cheaper the per domain cost of hosting your WordPress site. You can upgrade and downgrade from one plan to the next at any time. Upgrades are made through our control panel and are instant. Downgrades need to be processed manually with our support team so we can ensure your site does not break during the downgrade e.g. we review items such as disk space usage before we downgrade your plan.
How Fast Will My Site Be On WordPress Hosting?
In a word, fast. In two words, very fast. Using nearly two decades of hosting experience we built our WordPress hosting stack from the ground up for ultra fast performance. Our facilities and IP space are 100% UK based, which means for UK websites your users will have a lightning fast experience. Website speed is also an increasing factor in SEO too, which means if you need your website to rank well online, you need to be hosting within the UK and on speedy hosting too.
What Are The Limits Of My Website
We don’t fix any arbitrary limits on your site’s growth except for storage and RAM. We don’t limit the number of page views your site can process, nor do we limit the amount of transfer either. We don’t limit the number of concurrent users who can access your site, the size of your database or anything else. If you do find yourself needing more than the standard 25GB storage, or your site needs more RAM and oomph, you can increase resources by 50% for just £5.00 more per month. Only our one domain name plan can be increased with resources.
Can I Transfer My Website To Managed WordPress Hosting?
If you’re hosting WordPress with a different company, you can move your site to us at any time. In fact, if you need our help, we also operate a free migration service. We’ll move everything for you: content, databases data, you name it.
How Do I Run Non WordPress Components On My Website?
Our WordPress hosting comes with proxy functionality as standard. This allows you to proxy anything from a given URL to a remote endpoint. This means you can happily mix and match non WordPress technologies using different solutions, but present them to your site visitors as a unified site.
For example, you could run WordPress on one plan for your website, Magento on another for your online store, but present your users one site as domain.com, domain.com/shop – all through our proxy system.
Our proxy service is available for free and you can even host different parts of your site on different hosts, not just 34SP.com. Simply get in touch with us and we’ll advise on how we can advise you on our WordPress proxy service.
Bonus points: proxied sites also gain all the benefits of our full page caching.
WordPress Multisite Hosting
Our platform is 100% multisite compatible and we don’t limit how many sites you can create within your container either. To get started with multisite you just need to let us know you intend to use multiste so we can optimise the account for you. This process takes just a couple of minutes. Remember, multisite has inherent limitations and should only be used in specific use cases, you can read more about this on our Multisite page.
