We’ve tried more than 5 different companies over the past 6 years and were struggling with our scalability until we found Kinsta. Our CTO researched hosting companies and he was impressed with Kinsta’s infrastructure. After moving we saw at least 20% faster page load speeds, better caching, 99.9% uptime, and the team is just there for you.
The feeling that a company deeply understands WordPress and is there to help is an intangible benefit that you can’t measure but know it matters… As business owners, we are all about how we can make things faster and more efficient. Kinsta gets this and we will stay put as long as they keep that spirit!
As we’ve grown to more than 400,000 visitors per month, we needed this to be handled by professionals. We needed someone whose sole business is hosting, and we were only going to settle with the best. We also needed to pick someone that we comfortably could stay with for a long time as we continue to grow. Our choice was Kinsta.
When it came to looking for a new hosting provider, Kinsta has simply positioned itself as the obvious option. Security, speed, and great customer support were all factors, but the biggest one of all was the team and warm company culture I felt interacting with Brian and Tom.
Our customers named Kinsta one of G2’s top-rated small business hosting services of Winter 2020.
Enterprise-grade architecture, high availability, state of the art security, server-level caching, auto-scaling, six types of backups, real-time expert support, free migrations… These are must-haves every SMB needs to succeed — and you can have right now with Kinsta.
The internet of the 90s moved about as quickly as a sloth running the Boston Marathon with a hangover. Fast forward 20 years and the landscape has changed beyond recognition. Users expect lightning-fast load times and a frictionless online experience. What’s more, these expectations only keep rising as more people work and do their shopping online.
For every millisecond you shave off your site’s load time, you boost customer trust and confidence in your small business. When your brand is everything, it’s critical you show customers that you’re fast, trustworthy, and you mean business. And it helps if your web host is these things too.
Many SMBs opt for hosting that’s $5 a month or less. We get it. Businesses have tight budgets. But when you choose cheap small business hosting, you inevitably get what you pay for — low quality shared hosting and all the problems associated with it. Issues like downtime, slow page speeds, poor customer service, increased security risks, and a lack of backups.
When you invest in quality SMB hosting with Kinsta, you are investing in your business — and saving yourself a lot of time from all the trouble that comes with shared hosting. Because every minute saved is a minute you can focus on growing your business and boosting your brand.
You’re ready to take your business to the next level — you just need SMB hosting solutions that won’t crack under the pressure. Trust Kinsta to get it done with small business web hosting optimized for WordPress.
A slow website will impact your online success in three key ways:
If your site is slow, don’t be surprised if it hits your bottom line, because 47% of customers expect a site to load in 2 seconds and 40% will abandon it if it takes longer than 3 seconds.
Your page load speed and responsiveness to user requests directly impact customer loyalty. It’s simple: better site performance means greater user satisfaction, which in turn means increased sales and brand strength.
Site speed is a search ranking factor. So the faster your site, the more likely it is Google will rank your small business higher in search engine results pages (SERPs).
Successfully scaling a business, whether it’s an ecommerce site, an agency, or a SaaS, is all about doing the fundamentals and having the stamina to see it through. We’ve designed every aspect of our platform to provide the solid footing you need, no matter what kind of business you run.
Many of our customers report huge decreases in load times after switching to Kinsta. We only use state-of-the-art web hosting technologies, so your site will enjoy complete resource isolation, auto-scaling, and high availability. Choose from Google Cloud Platform’s 24 strategically placed global data centers and serve your site closest to where your users are located. Traffic spikes, sudden surges, Black Friday sales — our platform is ready for anything.
We use Google Cloud Platform so you’ll reap the benefits of a security model that protects the likes of Gmail and Google Search. We use Linux containers (LXC)—and LXD to orchestrate them—to completely isolate not just each SMB hosting account, but each instance of WordPress. We also have active and passive security measures in place to stop malicious intent, DDoS attack detection, as well as software-based restrictions, SSL support, and hardware firewalls.
Our auto-scaling infrastructure, built on Google Compute Engine servers, is ready to handle sudden surges in traffic and load so your site is always online, 24/7. With our isolated software container technology, our virtual machines automatically allocate hardware resources to each site container as-needed. That means you’ll get a highly available SMB hosting configuration for WordPress that’s secure and private by design while simultaneously allowing resources to be scaled up or down as your site demands.
When you make the switch to Kinsta, we’re here to help. All our plans include free website migrations so you won’t need to hire a developer. Simply fill out our migration request form in the MyKinsta dashboard and our migration team will do the rest. We move sites from popular hosting services to our platform around the clock, so chances are we’ve dealt with your existing host before.
In addition to time-saving features that empower business owners and developers alike, we offer a 30-day money back guarantee. We stand behind our services here at Kinsta but want to make sure you’re happy with your hosting. So if you cancel your account within the first 30 days of services we will issue a full refund.
