Nginx Reverse Proxy
Nginx, pronounced “engine-ex,” is an open-source web server used as a reverse proxy, HTTP cache, and load balancer.
It’s built to offer low memory usage and high concurrency. Rather than creating new processes for each web request, Nginx uses an asynchronous, event-driven approach where requests are handled in a single thread.
Nginx supports the ability to load WordPress from a subdirectory while a separate website (WordPress or otherwise) loads at the root domain.
With Nginx, one primary process can control multiple worker processes.
Pricing: $50 / month / per site
Redis
Redis is an open-source, in-memory data structure store, used as a database, cache, and message broker.
At Kinsta, page caching is already built-in for all sites running on our platform. However, some more dynamic sites do not make the best use of page caching.
Ecommerce sites, membership sites, forums, discussion boards, blogs with extremely active comment sections, and other types of highly dynamic websites will benefit greatly by using Redis.
Redis cache allows for the reuse of cached objects rather than requiring the MySQL database to be queried a second time for the same object.
This reduces the load on a website’s MySQL database, while simultaneously decreasing the response time of the site and increasing the site’s ability to scale and handle additional traffic.
Pricing: $100 / month / site
Automatic External Backups
Save the hours spent performing individual manual external backups. Instead, automatically back up your WordPress site once per week or per month to either Amazon S3 or Google Cloud Storage.
External backups can be configured for either a weekly or monthly frequency. You also have a choice between backing up your files only, WordPress database only, or both.
The Kinsta external backups add-on feature gives you the ability to build off-site backups into your disaster recovery strategy without having to configure complex WordPress plugins and connect to an external storage provider.
Pricing:
$2 per month for each site plus $1/GB for external bandwidth
Automatic Hourly and 6-Hour Backups
Do you have an ecommerce site, membership site, a news publication with an army of editors, or another type of continuously changing site?
Our hourly and 6-hour backup options could be a perfect fit.
Rest assured that you can upgrade or downgrade this add-on at any time.
These are additional restore points. When you have the hourly backups add-on enabled, automatic daily backups are still taken and available to restore.
Pricing:
6-Hour Backups – $50 / Site / Month
Hourly Backups – $100 / Site / Month
Scale Visits and Disk Space
A peak in traffic shouldn’t have you scrambling to change your plan. Our transparent overage pricing lets you calculate in advance.
For large sites with a lot of files or images, increase your plan’s disk space with our monthly add-on.
For additional flexibility, you can increase the storage space of your hosting plan with a few clicks inside the MyKinsta dashboard.
Pricing: 20 GB increments at $20/month per hosting plan
Multiple Environments (Coming Soon!)
Every Kinsta account comes with a staging site. Need more? Want to create templates for future sites? Customers will be able to install plugins, configure them, add content, and much more with add-on environments. Work and scale based on the type of environment in use. Choose from:
- Production Environments
- Non-Production Environments
- Additional Environments
- Template Environments
The purchase of an environment will not automatically create an environment. It will be similar to the current site slot setup. When you buy environments you buy the option of creating more environments.

FAQ
How do I set up the Nginx Reverse Proxy?
Please contact support with the inquiry and they will help you with the reverse proxy setup.
Is there a discount on the Reverse Proxy for multiple sites?
This depends on the situation and the number of Reverse Proxies needed. Please contact support with the inquiry.
Do I have to use your External Backups or can I use a plugin to offload backups?
External Backups are built into MyKinsta. All you have to do is add credentials and the system will handle the rest.
What are the best use cases for adding Redis to a site?
Ecommerce sites, membership sites, forums, discussion boards, blogs with extremely active comment sections, and other types of highly dynamic websites will benefit greatly by using Redis.
If I pay annually, does the disk space add-on get charged for the whole year also?
As with all addons (Unless you reach out and ASK for it to be billed annually), it will be billed monthly and the plan you are on will stay annual.
If a plugin update fails, can I also roll back the plugin from the MyKinsta Dashboard?
Yes and no. We will not provide a button or other facility within the plugins/themes page to do this. If users must revert a change because something unexpected happened or their site broke they can restore a backup, we create a backup when an update is performed.
24,400+ Companies Can’t Be Wrong
We truly cannot say enough about the level of customer service that Kinsta provides – it’s always a great experience, with very personable and helpful support.
Switching to Kinsta hosting was one of the best moves I made for my business. Their customer support is incredible! As a beginning user, I had no idea what any of the technical jargon meant. In every interaction, the Kinsta support team was patient and supported me until I had the issue fixed. Unlike other hosting platforms, they don’t just share an article or link and leave you to figure things out on your own. They stay with you until your problem is solved. The service itself is incredible as well. Since moving my WordPress site to Kinsta, I have had no downtime, no unexplained white-outs leaving me to scramble to fix an issue that was non-existent. Their affordable plans allowed me to start small and upgrade as my number of enrolled students grew. With Kinsta, I never worry about the hosting for my site.
Since upgrading from shared hosting to Kinsta we’ve been able to satisfy startup job seekers with lightning fast page loads and a service that doesn’t crack under the traffic every time we send our weekly jobs newsletter.
Their online chat team responds immediately every time I have tried to make contact. Each time they were able to fix any issues promptly – even in our timezone.
We’re a hybrid agency offering membership websites as a platform service. Kinsta is an integral part of our stack and offering to clients. Their servers and back-end tools allow us to quickly spin up new membership site builds with the performance and resources needed to scale. Some of our clients do millions in revenue, so the decision to host with Kinsta was not a light one.
As a technologist and seasoned WP hosting customer, I can tell you that there are very few companies that compare to Kinsta for membership site hosting. Save yourself A LOT of time and energy and just host with Kinsta. I’ve been nothing short of pleased for the last 3+ years as a customer. Everything from tools to support is top notch, which is exactly what you need when managing high performance membership sites.
