Solved before you arrive
The four problems this solves.
Each one costs time or sales on ordinary hosting. Here each one has an owner, and it is not you.
-
Staging that matches production
Run staging beside production on the same platform: same PHP, same cache, same behavior, no surprise diffs on launch day.
-
The ops tax on side projects
Every unmanaged box quietly bills you hours: updates, hardening, monitoring. Here that tax is gone and root remains.
-
Fear-driven deploys
Daily snapshots, plus on-demand ones before risky changes, make every deploy reversible in minutes.
-
Support that reads scripts
When you hit something weird, you talk to engineers who SSH in and look, not a chat window reciting a knowledge base.
What managed means here
We set it up once, then run it every day.
You keep your code, content and settings. The server work, and the 2 AM pager, are ours.
Day one, we set up
- Your server, your OSUbuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux and more, with full root
- SSH keys and GitDeploy straight from your repository
- The runtimes you usePHP, Node and Python, per site or per app
- Snapshots before risky changesOn demand, on top of the daily ones
- Firewall, IDS and patchingHandled by us, so you only ship
Every day after, we run
- Server and security updatesWith daily snapshots to roll back to
- Monitoring every minuteAn engineer acts when a check trips, any hour
- Firewall, IDS and malware scanningKept current, with DDoS protection in front
- Restores when you need oneHuman-assisted, in minutes
- Room to growIn-place upgrades without downtime

Apps for this job
On your own server: the tools around it.
On a managed VPS, add the apps this job runs on. We install, secure and update each one, and size one server for all of them.

FAQ
Developer hosting, answered.
How much does developer hosting cost?
Managed VPS, the best fit here, starts at $5/mo on 12 months ($6 month to month). Also a fit: Shared Hosting from $1.97/mo and Cloud Hosting from $14.25/mo. All three are fully managed.
Do I really get root on a managed VPS?
Yes: full root over KVM, your own kernel, your packages. Managed means we run the platform underneath, not that we take your keys.
Can I automate against the server?
Everything speaks standard tooling: SSH keys, Git, rsync, cron, and APIs where panels provide them. Your CI can deploy here like anywhere else.
What Linux distributions are available?
Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux and CloudLinux, plus Windows Server for the other side of the fence; cPanel needs the RHEL family, and we advise on pairings.
What happens when I break something at 3 AM?
Snapshots roll you back in minutes, and if it goes deeper than that, our engineers are awake and already have context from monitoring.
You write the code. We patch the server.
