Sevalla

Sevalla is a Kinsta platform purpose-built for Application, Database, and Static Site Hosting. Designed with developers in mind, Sevalla offers the flexibility and scalability needed for modern web projects. It supports a wide range of use cases, from lightweight static sites to complex, API-driven applications, and includes powerful features such as Object Storage, prebuilt Templates, Git-based deployments, custom domains, and automated scaling.

MyKinsta, on the other hand, is tailored specifically for Managed WordPress Hosting. If your focus is on hosting WordPress websites, MyKinsta provides a streamlined, performance-optimized environment backed by a suite of WordPress-specific tools. These include automatic daily backups, staging environments, built-in caching, free CDN and SSL, and expert WordPress support.

While it’s technically possible to host a WordPress site as a custom application on Sevalla, Managed WordPress Hosting is only available through MyKinsta. Managed hosting offloads much of the technical maintenance, such as updates, security patches, and server optimization, so you can concentrate on content, marketing, and growing your business.

In short:

  • Choose Sevalla for apps, databases, and static sites with maximum control and modern tooling.
  • Choose MyKinsta for dedicated, worry-free WordPress hosting.
