Hundreds of Daily Five-Star Ratings
If you have problematic high traffic sites like us, you’ll love their migration service — they took care of everything and even identified some problem plugins that had been installed by former members of our team. I would have spent hours on the migration due to the size without their help.
We needed to migrate our hosting to an enterprise-ready platform but lacked the internal developer resources to execute the migration ourselves. Kinsta’s migration team was excellent; they were extremely proactive and communication was incredible. Our migration went as smooth as possible and we are now happy Kinsta customers.
The free migration I received was the first time a host migrated a site and got all the little details correct, not forgetting things, etc. and they were incredibly friendly and patient.
I tried it… and loved it! I was still setting up my local environment using XAMPP, like a caveman! It’s a game-changer for me.
We’ve now been using Kinsta for 2 years. There have been some small issues down the road (spoiler alert: no hosting company is perfect), however, the best testimonial is that we are still a customer, and not planning to move out. Kinsta is a great solution for WordPress websites on the rise that want to be able to handle any volume of traffic.

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.
Do I need dedicated WordPress hosting?
If your website receives a lot of visitors or temporary surges in traffic; has complex and high CPU or RAM demands; or if you have strict security or conformity requirements, then a dedicated server could be a good solution for you. Dedicated servers provide the client with a server that is solely assigned to their use, providing efficiency and dependability to sites that need it most.

Dedicated hosting is the opposite of shared hosting. With dedicated hosting, you have the whole server to yourself, making it perfect for sites that receive heavy traffic and require full control over their server environment.

What is the difference between VPS hosting and dedicated hosting?
With Dedicated hosting, you to have the whole server to yourself, making it perfect for sites that receive heavy traffic and require control over their server.

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