2. Shed some light on what a lot of website
owners need to grow.
Bargain hosting plans don’t offer many
these options inherently.
Learn why you’ll need to befriend a
developer (or two).

Do You Really Need
Managed Hosting?
• Slow loading website?
• Is your website down often for periods of time
• Are you afraid/know how to make updates on your own?
• If your website crashed today, could you fix it on your own?
• You need security features to prevent hacks,
malicious injections, or real time monitoring?
• Questions monthly site traffic limits?

4. Would Your Visitors Appreciate
Your Website Loading Faster?
Does your website load in under 3 seconds?
Identify what is slowing down your website,
whether it’s images, plugins, javascript, jquery,
and other elements.

6. Could you manage if your
website crashed tomorrow?
Fail to plan, plan to fail. You’ve gotta
have a contingency plan. Quick
story about me, I had my client sites
hacked consistently for over a year
and I didn’t know what to do.

7. What Can You Handle
On Your Own?
There is a TON of information out there about
WordPress that is ready for you to read.
Problem is, searching for that exact answer could be
cumbersome. Managed Hosting professionals may
actually be able to help - for “free”.

8. You “Can”Manage
Your Own Updates
Of course you can manage your own updates.
But do you have the time? Are you researching
each update before applying them to your
website?

9. You Sure Can!

10. D E S I G N T H E O R Y
Who really has time to keep up with all the latest threats
to all things across the inter-webs?
There are plugins, some free, some premium. You can get
away with free, but eventually you’ll need to pay for some
kind of monthly subscription.
Did you know that your site can be taken offline for
violating a host’s terms of use due to malicious content?
Cyber Security is the
Furthest Thing in Your Mind
