Managed VPS and dedicated server support for WordPress and PHP sites

We manage the production stack that keeps PHP, WordPress and WooCommerce sites stable: Linux VPS or dedicated servers, Apache or Nginx, PHP, MySQL or MariaDB, SSL, DNS, backups, cron jobs, logs, cache and troubleshooting. Dedicated servers can also be supplied when the project needs more isolated or predictable resources.

Scope

What this includes

Manage Linux VPS and dedicated server stacks with Apache/Nginx, PHP and MySQL/MariaDB
Supply dedicated server capacity when the project needs more controlled resources
Handle SSL, DNS, backups, permissions, cron jobs, logs and monitoring
Support migrations, emergency troubleshooting and monthly server care
Tune PHP, MySQL, cache and security basics for real production traffic

Fit

Production hosting support for the stack your web project actually uses.

Most agency and SME sites do not need an enterprise operations team. They need clear ownership over the web stack, backups that can be trusted, logs that are reviewed, DNS and SSL handled correctly, and a technical person available when performance, permissions, cron or database issues affect production. Where shared VPS capacity is not enough, dedicated servers can be supplied and managed under the same practical support model.

Best used when

  • WordPress and WooCommerce sites that have outgrown basic shared hosting
  • PHP applications that need predictable Linux VPS or dedicated server ownership
  • Sites with unstable performance, permissions, cron jobs or database behaviour
  • Agencies that need migration, emergency support, dedicated server supply or monthly hosting care

Common situations

Use this when hosting has become part of the delivery risk.

Shared hosting is too limited for the site's traffic, cron jobs or database load
A VPS exists but nobody clearly owns backups, logs, DNS or SSL
Performance, permissions, cron or cache issues are blocking delivery
A migration or dedicated server move needs controlled production handling

These are representative monitoring and hosting signals from managed environments, not a universal guarantee or default SLA. Availability, backups, response expectations, recovery and exclusions depend on the contracted hosting/support scope.

FAQ

Before starting this work

Is this enterprise sysadmin work?

No. The focus is practical managed VPS and dedicated server support for PHP, WordPress and WooCommerce production sites, not enterprise infrastructure operations.

Can you handle migrations and emergencies?

Yes. Work can include planned migrations, emergency troubleshooting and monthly server support for environments prepared and controlled by Starter.pt.

Do you support both Apache and Nginx?

Yes. Typical stacks include Linux with Apache or Nginx, PHP and MySQL/MariaDB, plus SSL, DNS, backups, cron, logs and cache.

Can you supply dedicated servers?

Yes. Dedicated server supply can be included when the project needs isolated resources, predictable capacity or a more controlled production environment than shared hosting or a small VPS can provide.

Are backups guaranteed?

Backups can be configured, checked and reviewed under the agreed support scope. Recovery guarantees depend on the contract, infrastructure and backup design in place.

Do you provide 24/7 NOC monitoring?

No. The focus is practical monitoring and troubleshooting for managed web stacks, without presenting the service as a 24/7 enterprise NOC.
