Managed Web Hosting & Maintenance Services

Hosting & Maintenance

Website hosting and maintenance can be hard to choose. Technical knowledge is generally required to do both, especially if something unforeseen happens. FireCask is a full-service digital marketing agency, covering everything from content marketing to web hosting – we can help you maintain your sites so that you don’t have to worry about downtime or decreased performance. We provide fully managed web hosting services powered by different CMSs but our core focus is WordPress.

As web hosting providers, we believe that keeping your site secure and up to date is one of the most crucial things you can do. This is so your site can be best protected against attacks and injections in WordPress. Through our business web hosting services, we help sites recover from major attacks, by following the best practices to keep your site up to date and secure.

We also offer the following with our web hosting packages:

Daily Backups

When we begin a maintenance package, we immediately set up backups on the site. These backups store a copy of your posts and pages on a daily basis, with 30 days worth of accessible backups readily able to be restored easily. Backups are stored off-site, so even if everything is lost, we still have a copy of the site available to restore.

Once a week we do a full backup of your system (including all files on the site), we keep those weekly backups for up to 30 days.

Weekly Updates

When we begin a maintenance package, we immediately set up backups on the site. These backups store a copy of your posts and pages on a daily basis, with over 4 weeks worth of backups readily able to be restored easily. Backups are stored off-site, so even if everything is lost, we still have a copy of the site available to restore.

Once a week we do a full backup of your system (including all files on the site), we keep those weekly backups for up to 30 days.

Hassle-Free Migration

Should you wish, you can migrate to our UK based servers. You’d be pleased to know that we have a 99.999% uptime guaranteed. We can help facilitate any migration from your current server to ours.

Our client testimonials

123-Reg Testimonial

When we knew we were ready to re-focus and re-launch our content offering, we knew exactly where to turn. The expertise and in-depth knowledge of WordPress shown by Alex and his team were second to none and that was important in making sure we went beyond more than just a change of theme.

- Tim Fuell, Blog Editor

Asemblr Testimonial

Alex and the team at FireCask exceeded our expectations when we underwent a rebrand. We spoke to a lot of branding agencies before we chose FireCask, and the main reason was their process and their ability to be able to understand what we wanted from the rebrand. I would not hesitate to recommend Alex and his team to anyone wanting to look at branding.

- David Lovett-Hume, CEO

AXYZ Testimonial

FireCask performed a quick turnaround, redesigning and redeveloping our site, migrating our outdated CMS to WordPress all in a 10 week period. Since the launch of the site in December 2016, they have maintained the site and it has felt like they are an extended arm of AXYZ rather than an external agency. FireCask far exceeded our expectations when it came to redesign, redevelop, maintain and advise us on best practices for our site as well as their level of service.

We’ve had a close working relationship with FireCask for a while now and we couldn’t be happier with the results! Big thanks to the team for moving our site to WordPress - it’s exactly what we needed to take more editorial control. They took the time to understand what it is that we wanted and the finished product is a true testament to the brilliant work that they do.
