45Squared was founded on a simple belief: businesses deserve a web team that actually knows what they’re doing.

Too many companies get stuck with cookie-cutter websites on unreliable hosting, supported by teams that disappear when something goes wrong. We built 45Squared to be the opposite of that.

What We Do

We design, build, and host websites — primarily on WordPress — backed by Amazon Web Services infrastructure. That means your site isn’t sitting on a shared server with thousands of other websites hoping nothing breaks. It’s running on the same cloud platform that powers Netflix, Airbnb, and NASA.

But we’re not just a hosting company. We’re a full-service web team:

• Web Design & Development — Custom WordPress sites built to convert visitors into customers. We also build on other platforms when the project calls for it.
• Managed AWS Hosting — Enterprise-grade infrastructure with hands-on management. Security patches, backups, SSL, CDN, monitoring — all handled.
• Ongoing Support & Analytics — We don’t launch and disappear. We monitor your site’s performance, provide actionable reports, and make improvements over time.

Why We’re Different

We’ve been doing this since 2016. In that time, we’ve seen hosting companies come and go, watched agencies overpromise and underdeliver, and helped businesses recover from both. Here’s what sets us apart:

• We’re engineers, not resellers. We manage the actual infrastructure on AWS. When something needs fixing, we fix it ourselves — no tickets to a third party, no waiting days for a response.
• WordPress is our specialty. We don’t just install themes. We understand the platform deeply — performance optimization, security hardening, plugin architecture, and scalable deployments.
• We build for the long term. Every website we create is designed to grow with your business. Clean code, maintainable architecture, and hosting that scales when you need it to.
• You talk to real people. No chatbots, no tier-1 support reading from a script. When you reach out, you get someone who understands your site and your business.

Our Technology Stack

We’re deliberate about the technology we use:

• Amazon Web Services (AWS) — Cloud infrastructure with 99.99% uptime SLA, global edge locations, and automatic scaling
• WordPress — The world’s most popular CMS, powering 43% of the web, with the flexibility to build anything from landing pages to complex e-commerce platforms
• Content Delivery Networks — Your site’s assets served from the closest server to each visitor, worldwide
• Security-First Architecture — SSL certificates, web application firewalls, automated backups, and proactive monitoring as standard

Who We Work With

Our clients are typically small to mid-sized businesses who understand that their website is a critical part of their operation — not just a digital brochure. They want a team they can trust to keep things running, and a partner who can help them grow online.

Whether you need a new website from scratch, a redesign of an outdated site, a migration to better hosting, or just a reliable team to manage what you already have — we’d love to talk.
