[ vps ]  managed virtual private serversstarting at $25 / month

Your own server.
Without the 2 a.m. pages.

A real Linux box with a real IP. We harden it, monitor it, patch it, and host your sites on it. You get the dashboard. We get the alerts.

All plans include dedicated IPv4, SMTP, daily backups, and a human.

ii— What's actually managed

The list, in detail.

Provisioning

Debian 12 LTS, hardened. Firewall, fail2ban, automatic security updates, sane SSH config — done before you log in.

Backups

Nightly snapshots, 14-day retention. Off-site copy weekly. Restores are a button (or an email to us).

Monitoring

CPU, memory, disk, response time, certificate expiry, mail queue. Pages us, not you.

Email (SMTP)

Postfix + DKIM + SPF + DMARC, configured against your dedicated IP. Warmed up. Reputation maintained.

Patching

OS, nginx, PHP, MySQL, Postgres. Patched on a schedule we publish in advance. Zero-day patches go same day.

WordPress

Optional. We'll install, configure, harden, and update WP, plugins, and themes. Or stay out of it — your call.

DNS

Hosted with us or BYO. We help you sort the records either way.

The human bit

A specific engineer owns your server. You'll have their email. They reply.

Running WordPress?
We do that — properly.

Multi-site on one VPS, no per-site fees. Hardened, patched, backed up. We handle plugin updates if you want, or stay out of it. Same flat VPS price.
