Hosting & Infrastructure

Web Hosting

Hosting is the foundation everything else sits on. We host and manage sites with Skyrack, a 100% Australian-owned provider we trust for performance, security and genuinely local support, so your site stays fast, online and protected.

Australian infrastructure

Servers in Australia on ISO 27001 certified infrastructure, your data subject to the Australian Privacy Principles, and a low accounts-per-server policy for consistent performance.

Speed & stability

CloudLinux resource isolation and an optimised stack keep sites quick under load, with the Core Web Vitals headroom that search and conversion both reward.

Security & backups

Daily patching, real-time malware and virus scanning, hardened firewalls and regular backups, so problems are caught and reversible.

Migration & support

Free migration from your current host with minimal downtime, and a local support team of experienced WordPress people available around the clock.

What's included
  • Hosting recommendation & setup
  • Migration from current host
  • SSL, email & DNS configuration
  • Backups & monitoring
  • Ongoing performance & security checks

Our approach to Hosting

We match the plan to the site rather than overselling capacity, set it up properly, and keep an eye on it. Because we host and maintain in one place, performance and security issues get found and fixed before they cost you visitors.

Hosting is the foundation everything else sits on

Every part of your marketing eventually points back to your website, and your website only performs as well as the server it runs on. Slow hosting drags down Core Web Vitals, which affects both search rankings and conversion. Unreliable hosting means downtime you often hear about from customers before you hear about it from anyone else. Weak hosting security is how most small-business sites get hacked in the first place. Good hosting is quiet and unglamorous, and that is exactly the point: you should never have to think about it.

Because we build and maintain sites, we care a great deal about where they live. We host with a provider we trust rather than whatever was cheapest at signup, and we manage the setup so the foundation is solid from day one.

Why we use Skyrack

Our preferred hosting supplier is Skyrack, an Australian web host we use because their priorities match ours: performance, security and genuinely local support. They describe themselves as "mission critical web hosting, for everyone", and in our experience that holds up.

What makes them our default recommendation:

  • 100% Australian owned and operated, running since 2012, with support handled locally rather than offshore.
  • Servers located in Australia on ISO 27001 certified infrastructure, so your data stays onshore and subject to the Australian Privacy Principles.
  • A low accounts-per-server policy, which keeps resources available and sites fast instead of cramming thousands of accounts onto one box.
  • CloudLinux and a hardened firewall, isolating each account so one busy or compromised site cannot drag down its neighbours.
  • Daily patching with real-time malware and virus scanning, so threats are caught early rather than discovered after the damage is done.
  • Free migrations from your existing host with minimal downtime.
  • Support around the clock from a team that includes experienced WordPress developers, and no hidden fees.

We are not reselling a black box. We use Skyrack ourselves, we know how their stack behaves, and we know who to talk to when something needs attention.

What good hosting actually gives you

The practical benefits are simple. Pages load quickly, which keeps visitors and search engines happy. The site stays online, so campaigns you are paying to drive traffic are not sending people to an error. Backups mean a mistake or an attack is recoverable rather than catastrophic. And local support means that when you do need help, you are talking to someone in your time zone who understands the platform.

How we set it up and look after it

We match the plan to the site rather than overselling capacity you will never use. We handle the migration from your current host, configure SSL, email and DNS correctly, and set up backups and monitoring. Because hosting and maintenance sit with the same team, performance and security issues tend to get noticed and fixed before they ever reach you.

If you would rather keep your existing host, that is fine too. We can work with most providers. We simply find that recommending hosting we trust saves everyone time and avoids the finger-pointing that happens when the host and the web team are different companies who have never spoken.

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to host with Skyrack to work with you?

No. Skyrack is our preferred supplier because we trust their performance and support, and it is what we recommend, but we can build and maintain your site on most reputable hosts. If you are already somewhere reliable, we will work with what you have.

Will moving hosts take my site offline?

Migrations are planned to keep downtime to a minimum, and Skyrack offers free migrations from your existing host. We copy the site across, test it on the new server before switching, then change the DNS so the cutover is smooth. In most cases visitors notice nothing.

Is my data kept in Australia?

Yes. Skyrack's servers are located in Australia on ISO 27001 certified infrastructure, and your data is subject to the Australian Privacy Principles. For many Australian businesses, onshore data is either a requirement or simply a preference, and it also helps local load times.

What happens if my site goes down or gets attacked?

With monitoring and regular backups in place, downtime is flagged quickly and the site can be restored to a clean state. Hosting on a well-managed, secure platform also makes attacks far less likely in the first place. If you have been hacked, our hacked WordPress recovery service can clean and restore the site.

How much does hosting cost?

Plans start at a few dollars a month and scale with the size and traffic of the site. We recommend the right level for your needs rather than the biggest plan, and there are no hidden fees. We are happy to talk through the options based on what your site actually requires.
