What's Included
Everything your site needs to run smoothly.
Managed Hosting
Your site lives on managed infrastructure we run, monitor, and stand behind. WordPress sites are hosted with WP Engine, and Astro sites deploy through our managed Netlify setup.
Daily Backups
We back up your site every single day with one-click restore points. If anything ever goes sideways, we push a button and you're back up, usually before you've noticed.
Platform & Plugin Updates
Your platform, themes, and plugins stay current with regular updates, keeping your site secure and running smoothly no matter what it was built on.
Security Monitoring
We keep an eye on your site around the clock, with proactive monitoring that catches problems before they become emergencies.
Dev Hours
Pro and Enterprise plans include dedicated dev hours each month for content updates, small fixes, and anything else your site needs.
Monthly Reporting
Pro and Enterprise plans include a plain-English monthly report covering your site's health, any updates we made, and anything you should know about.

Managed WordPress hosting
Hosting that actually stays managed
Sproutbox offers managed WordPress hosting through WP Engine for businesses that want a fast, secure website without managing the technical side. We handle server performance, security patches, plugin updates, and daily backups. Most of our hosting clients are businesses whose websites we designed and built, though we also take on standalone hosting for existing WordPress sites that need a more reliable home.
Most hosting problems we inherit are not actually hosting problems. They are neglected sites running outdated plugins, slow from unoptimized images, and exposed from years of skipped security updates. We have taken over WordPress sites loading in 8 seconds and cut load time under 2 by doing nothing more than proper cleanup and optimization. Fast, secure hosting is the baseline. Getting there is what most managed hosting providers skip.
Our Process
How we get you set up.
Before we touch anything, we document exactly what you have: plugins, theme, custom functionality, DNS setup, and any performance or security issues. We build a migration plan that accounts for every dependency so nothing breaks in the move. Most migrations are zero-downtime, meaning your site stays live the entire time.
We move your site files and database to WP Engine, configure the environment for your specific setup, and verify everything works before updating DNS. We also do a baseline performance and security pass as part of setup: image optimization, caching configuration, firewall rules, and plugin cleanup. Most sites come out of migration faster than they went in.
After launch, we take over the maintenance. Monthly plugin and theme updates tested on staging before going to production, weekly security scans, daily backup verification, and uptime monitoring. You'll hear from us if something needs your attention. Otherwise, you don't have to think about it.
Hosting clients get priority access to our development team for site edits and updates. New page, a form change, a content update, we handle it without the overhead of a new project engagement. As your business grows, we scale your hosting environment with it.
What is managed WordPress hosting?
Managed WordPress hosting means someone else handles the technical upkeep of your WordPress site, server performance, security patches, plugin updates, backups, and uptime monitoring. With Sproutbox, that also includes access to our development team for edits and fixes. You get a site that stays fast, secure, and online without managing any of it yourself.
How is Sproutbox hosting different from GoDaddy or Bluehost?
GoDaddy and Bluehost are shared hosting environments where your site competes for server resources with thousands of others. We host on WP Engine, which is purpose-built for WordPress and includes daily backups, staging environments, and security infrastructure shared hosts don't offer. We also handle monthly maintenance and give you direct access to our development team, which you don't get from a shared host.
Can you migrate my existing WordPress site to your hosting?
Yes. We handle the full migration, site files, database, DNS, with a zero-downtime process in most cases. Before we move anything, we audit your current setup and build a plan that accounts for every dependency. We also do a performance and security pass during setup, so most sites come out faster than they went in.
What's included in monthly maintenance?
Monthly plugin and theme updates tested on staging before going live, weekly security scans, daily backup verification, and uptime monitoring. If something needs your attention, you hear from us. If everything is running clean, you don't have to think about it.
What happens if my site goes down or gets hacked?
We monitor uptime continuously and respond quickly to outages. If there's a security incident, we have daily backups to restore from and the experience to isolate and resolve it fast. We've handled malware cleanups, hack recoveries, and plugin conflicts. It's part of what managed hosting covers.
Do I have to be a current Sproutbox web design client to use your hosting?
No. We take on standalone hosting for existing WordPress sites that need a more reliable home. We audit your current setup before quoting anything so we can give you an honest picture of what migration involves and what, if anything, needs to be cleaned up first.
