FAQ

What is dedicated WordPress hosting?

A dedicated server is a hosting environment where all the resources are exclusively allocated to a single client. At Kinsta, our highly-tuned hosting stack powered by Google Cloud Platform (GCP) handles most sites efficiently. However, for very high-traffic sites that can’t effectively use page caching or need extremely high levels of CPU and RAM, dedicated servers offer the additional resources required to ensure optimal performance.

While this can be a more cost effective solution, it doesn’t offer the same level of performance, reliability, or customization.
