Hosting built for operations, not tickets
Generic hosting plans assume you have a sysadmin on staff. Many growing businesses do not — or that person is already stretched across desktop support, security, and application fixes. Managed cloud hosting from Hosting Llama fills that gap with proactive operations and documentation your organization can rely on.
What is included
- 24/7 infrastructure monitoring with alerting tuned to your applications
- Automated backups with tested restore procedures and retention policies
- OS and runtime patching on a schedule that balances security and stability
- Firewall configuration, TLS management, and SSH/RDP access controls
- Capacity planning and scaling for traffic growth or new product launches
- Staging environments that mirror production for safe releases
- Incident response with clear communication during outages
WordPress and static site hosting
After migration, we operate WordPress on tuned cloud stacks — caching, staging, PHP updates, plugin hygiene, and WooCommerce-aware monitoring when you sell online. For sites converted to static builds, we host on CDN-backed infrastructure with TLS, deploy pipelines, and form handling so you keep lead capture without running PHP on every page view.
From legacy VPS to managed cloud
A traditional VPS leaves patching, backup verification, and security hardening on your team. One missed update or full disk can take down customer-facing services. Moving to managed cloud hosting separates “the platform works” from “our developers ship features.”
If you are still on legacy on-prem or dedicated hardware, we typically migrate first, then operate under a managed plan so you are not juggling two vendors during cutover.
Security practices
Security is operational discipline, not a checkbox on a sales page. Our approach includes:
- Principle of least privilege for admin access and deployment keys
- Network segmentation between public web, application, and database tiers
- Regular review of exposed services and certificate expiry
- Logging suitable for troubleshooting and compliance questions
- Coordination with your IT policies (MFA, VPN, IP allow lists)
Performance and reliability
We baseline response times and resource usage after onboarding. Alerts fire on trends — disk growth, memory pressure, database slow queries — before users complain. Maintenance windows are scheduled with your business calendar in mind, not arbitrary weekend-only slots.
Backup and disaster recovery
Backups run automatically; restores are practiced. We document recovery time and recovery point objectives with you so leadership understands exposure. Off-site and cross-region options are available for workloads that require higher resilience.
Who benefits most
- Professional services firms with client portals and document workflows
- Regional businesses with e-commerce or booking systems
- Teams that outgrew shared hosting but lack full-time DevOps
- Companies post-migration that want a single partner for hosting and apps
Pricing — more performance, often less spend
Legacy servers hide costs in hardware refresh, power, licenses, and IT hours. Managed cloud bundles infrastructure, patching, backups, and monitoring into predictable monthly plans — and tuned WordPress or static stacks frequently outperform old dedicated boxes at a lower total cost of ownership.
Hosting starts at $39/month (static) and $79/month (WordPress cloud). See full tiers and migration project pricing on our pricing page, or contact us for a bill comparison against what you pay today.
