Pricing
Clear starting points — not bait-and-switch “$5 hosting” that leaves you on your own. Most clients find managed cloud delivers better performance for less total cost than aging servers once you count hardware, licenses, power, and staff time.
Why cloud often beats legacy on cost and performance
The monthly invoice from an old server is only part of the story. Cloud shifts capital expense to predictable operations — and you pay for capacity you use, not idle hardware.
| Cost factor | Legacy on-prem / old dedicated | Managed cloud with Hosting Llama |
|---|---|---|
| Hardware & refresh | New servers every 3–5 years, unexpected drive failures | Included in hosting — no surprise capital purchases |
| Power, cooling, rack space | Ongoing facility or colo fees | Provider absorbs infrastructure overhead |
| Licensing & OS support | Windows/SQL licenses, extended support fees | Right-sized open-source or included platform licensing |
| Staff time | Nights/weekends patching, backup checks, firefighting | Managed patching, monitoring, and tested backups |
| Performance under load | Fixed CPU/RAM until you buy more iron | Scale resources up for campaigns, down when quiet |
| Downtime risk | Single box, slow recovery | Redundancy, snapshots, faster restore paths |
The performance-for-dollar advantage
A $200/month cloud environment with caching, a modern PHP/runtime stack, and CDN delivery often outperforms a $500/month aging dedicated server — because that dedicated box is years old, overloaded with plugins, and missing optimizations. WordPress on tuned cloud, or a static build, routinely scores better on Core Web Vitals than the same site on neglected shared hosting — at a lower total cost of ownership.
We review your current bills (hosting, colo, maintenance contracts, and IT hours) during assessment so you see apples-to-apples numbers before you commit.
