Don’t Get Punished with Surprise Charges When Your Site Succeeds

There’s nothing that crushes the sweet success of generating website traffic more than surprise overage charges. You’ve exceeded the plan limits of your traditional WordPress host for bandwidth, storage, CPUs, or RAM … and now it’s time to get out your wallet.

That won’t happen to you with StudioPress Sites

The reason you’re safe is the unique hybrid approach StudioPress takes to server infrastructure. It’s not your typical WordPress hosting environment.

The primary difference between a website builder and self-hosted WordPress is that with the former, you’re dealing with software as a service (SaaS), while the latter is … well, hosting. Not only is self-hosted WordPress a pain to deal with, it can also lead to unexpected surprises if you actually succeed.

In this sense, StudioPress Sites is more like SaaS than hosting. You can set up your new site in just minutes on our server infrastructure that’s specifically optimized for peak WordPress performance.

Site speed and page load times are too important to be jammed on a box with hundreds of generic WordPress installs, which is what you get with traditional hosting. More importantly, you’ll never face the experience of your site crashing just because you succeed in getting big traffic.

That’s why we have three simple plans:

The Content plan

You want a powerful personal or small business website. All the good stuff, with no unnecessary bells, whistles, or inconvenience. Perfect for bloggers, podcasters, and affiliate marketers.

The Commerce plan

Your business and website needs are growing, and you want online sales to be smooth sailing. Perfect if you’re selling physical products, digital downloads, membership programs, and courses.

The Synthesis plan

You want a managed WordPress hosting solution that can easily handle your already successful site, but still don’t want to break the bank. With this plan you get superior speed, scale, and stability.

But here’s the thing … not only do you enjoy superior speed and performance with either StudioPress Site plan, you also avoid the financial hassle of self-hosted WordPress, like those surprise expenses for bandwidth upcharges, storage, CPUs, and RAM.

Even as your StudioPress Site remains solid during surprise traffic spikes, you won’t pay extra for short-term success on the way to sustained higher traffic. It’s just one low, predictable price until you’re ready to move up.
