[Sponsored Post] Introducing Web Hosting Canada’s Managed WordPress: Fast, Secure & Canadian.

Web Hosting Canada (WHC) is proud to be sponsoring WordCamp Montreal’s 2018 incarnation, and we’re even prouder to be announcing the launch of our Managed WordPress Hosting, in its first public Beta just in time for the conference!

Managed WordPress Lets You Focus on Your Content

WordPress is the most popular Content Management System out there because, well… it’s awesome! Fully open-source, with a community-driven plugin and theme-based approach that allows for near limitless creativity.

To keep the creative process flowing, it’s important to be able to focus on content and goals without getting bogged down in technicalities. Managed WordPress Hosting was designed with this in mind.

Blazing Performance –  With multiple levels of caching, built in compression, hyper-fast SSD storage, CDN support, PHP 7.2 & MariaDB optimizations and redundant networks, your WordPress will be as fast as it can be.

Built-in Security.  SSL, daily backups, automatic threat detection and mitigation, embedded malware scanning, and DDOS protection are just some of the hands-free security features included for peace of mind. No plugins required!

Near-Instant Activation. Working in seconds, not minutes, allowing users to jump into their project right away with WordPress already installed. A starter theme and pre-selected plugins streamline the process so that the user can focus on rapid publishing.

Power Features – WP-CLI, GIT, SFTP, Staging (coming soon) and SSH are just some of the extra features included and providing you with even more benefits.

Managed WordPress that’s Proudly Canadian (and Green!)

As with all of WHC’s hosting services, Managed WordPress Hosting is 100% Canadian. Hosted on Canadian servers and pre-configured for multilingual audiences, you’ll be able to get your message across effectively to both English and French visitors.

WHC is also proud to be a Green Hosting Provider. With power-efficient SSD storage, datacenters that rely almost exclusively on hydroelectricity and energy-efficient cooling with natural outdoor air and water cooling systems, we generate substantially lower emissions than traditional hosters.
