You can continue using your current hosting provider, but if you’re using shared hosting, we may not be able to achieve your website goals. Shared hosting is more affordable upfront, but it comes at a cost when it comes to speed and security.

We recommend that you sign up for hosting through us. We only use the best WordPress managed hosting providers on the market: Anchor, Kinsta, and Rocket.net.

Yes, absolutely!

There is an additional cost for e-commerce websites or websites with advanced functionality. You can use the standard sign-up process above. We’ll provide a custom quote after reviewing your website setup.
