Secure, Reliable Hosting Made Simple
Everyone knows what a website is, but did you know your site needs to be hosted on a server to be seen online? Many companies, both local and national, provide hosting—but not all plans are created equal.
In October, we shared an article titled “The Hidden Power of Good Website Hosting” where we explored different types of hosting and what to look for. We highlighted the “Traverse Web Difference”—our thoughtfully managed servers, high-level security, daily backups, and top-notch customer service.
Why Traverse Web Hosting Stands Out
Our servers are secure, backed up daily, and guaranteed 99.9% uptime. We manage updates, monitor for malware, and provide ongoing support. And with full-service hosting starting at just $25 per month, you get exceptional value without breaking the bank.
National Hosting Companies
Some big-name hosting companies advertise plans as low as $10 per month. But these low-cost options often come with limits on visitors, bandwidth, and storage. Many don’t include SSL certificates for secure browsing, and you’re usually responsible for updating software and plugins. While affordable upfront, the hidden costs and potential downtime can outweigh the savings.
Choosing a Local Hosting Provider
Local hosting companies provide faster support and a personal touch. Plans typically range from $35 to $140 per month, but not all include essential features like SSL security, software updates, or backup services. Traverse Web’s base plan starts at $25/month and includes:
- Website hosting
- Up to 10 email addresses with 10GB combined storage
- SSL Security/HTTPS encryption
- Monitored firewall and security
- Daily malware scans and virus protection
- Manual and automatic software updates
- Daily, weekly, and monthly backups
- Up to 1 hour/month of basic website updates (content, images, etc.)
Shared Hosting Done Right
Shared hosting means multiple websites share the same physical server. Many companies overload their servers, which can slow performance or compromise security. At Traverse Web, we thoughtfully manage server capacity to ensure your website has the resources it needs, with extra security measures to prevent hacking and protect other sites.
