Why Shared Hosting Is Holding Your Site Back
Most WordPress sites run on shared hosting — GoDaddy, Bluehost, SiteGround, or similar. Shared hosting puts thousands of websites on the same physical server. The problems are predictable.
Noisy Neighbor Problem
When another site on your shared server gets a traffic spike, your site slows down. You have no visibility and no control. It happens constantly.
Load Times Kill SEO
Google uses Core Web Vitals as a ranking factor. Shared hosting sites routinely fail Time to First Byte (TTFB) benchmarks. 45Squared sites load in under 1 second from any location via CloudFront CDN.
Security Exposure
A compromised neighbor on shared hosting can affect your site. 45Squared uses isolated EC2 instances — your server is your server. Security groups, hardened AMIs, and no cross-contamination risk.
No Real Monitoring
Shared hosts notify you after your site goes down — sometimes hours later. 45Squared integrates CloudWatch monitoring on every site with automated alerting. We know before you do.
Shared Hosting vs. 45Squared Managed Hosting
Frequently Asked Questions
What is managed WordPress hosting?
Managed WordPress hosting means your provider handles all the technical infrastructure — server setup, SSL, CDN, security updates, and monitoring — so you focus on your website. 45Squared manages WordPress on AWS EC2 with CloudFront CDN, giving you enterprise performance without managing a server yourself.
How is this different from shared WordPress hosting?
Shared hosting puts thousands of websites on the same physical server. Your performance is affected by your neighbors. 45Squared provisions a dedicated AWS EC2 instance for your site — your resources are never shared, and load times are consistently under 1 second.
How much does managed WordPress hosting cost?
Managed WordPress hosting starts at $29/month. This includes a dedicated AWS EC2 instance, CloudFront CDN, SSL, and CloudWatch monitoring. No setup fees and no long-term contracts.
Can I migrate my existing WordPress site to 45Squared?
Yes. If you’re already on WordPress and want to move to better infrastructure, 45Squared migrates your files and database to AWS. Your domain, content, and SEO rankings stay intact. Most WordPress-to-WordPress migrations complete in under a week.
What AWS services are included?
Every 45Squared WordPress hosting plan runs on AWS EC2 (dedicated compute), CloudFront (global CDN for sub-1s load times), Route 53 (DNS management), and Let’s Encrypt SSL (auto-renewing). CloudWatch monitoring provides 24/7 alerting on site health, performance, and uptime.
