Managed Hosting

Hosting that just works — because someone is actually looking after it.

Australian infrastructure, daily backups, SSL, and monitoring. Set up right, kept running.

Most hosting problems aren't server problems — they're configuration problems. A misconfigured SSL certificate. A domain left to expire. A backup that ran but was never tested. An uptime alert that nobody receives because the email was set up incorrectly. I've seen all of these happen to businesses that thought their hosting was "handled."

Every site I host is deployed on Australian infrastructure through PHAS — a specialist Australian web hosting company with local support and servers in Australia. That means fast load times for Australian visitors and your data staying in the country.

What managed hosting actually means

Managed hosting means I take responsibility for the server environment, not just the code. SSL configured and renewing automatically. DNS set up correctly so email doesn't bounce and the site resolves consistently. Daily backups with a tested restore process. Uptime monitoring that alerts me before you hear about a problem from a customer.

Hosting as part of a complete setup

Most clients have their site built and hosted through me as part of a single engagement. Everything is configured at launch — hosting, domain, SSL, email, backups, monitoring — so there's no scrambling after go-live to sort out the infrastructure. For clients moving from an existing provider, I manage the migration and DNS transfer to ensure there's no downtime during the switch.

Managed Hosting FAQ

Common questions,
straight answers.

Don't see what you're looking for? Send me a message and I'll get back to you personally — usually within a few hours.

Do you work with businesses across all of Tasmania?

Yes. I work with businesses statewide — from Burnie and Devonport on the northwest coast through to Launceston, Hobart, and regional areas. Local SEO works the same way everywhere — it is about matching your business signals to the searches happening in your specific area.

What is included in managed hosting?

Managed hosting includes server setup and configuration, SSL certificate provisioning and renewal, daily backups, uptime monitoring, security patching, PHP and server software updates, and ongoing performance tuning. You get a fast, secure, maintained server without needing to think about any of it.

Where are the servers located?

All hosting is on Australian-based infrastructure through PHAS. Australian hosting means faster load times for your Australian visitors, data sovereignty compliance, and no concerns about overseas data handling. For most Tasmanian businesses this makes a measurable difference to page speed.

Can you migrate my existing site to managed hosting?

Yes. I handle the full migration — files, databases, DNS cutover, and SSL — with zero downtime in most cases. Once the migration is complete and verified, your old hosting can be cancelled. The process is transparent and I will keep you updated at each step.

How often are backups taken and can I restore from them?

Backups run daily and are stored offsite — separate from your hosting server — so a server failure cannot take your backup with it. Restores can be performed quickly when needed. If you accidentally delete content or something goes wrong after an update, a clean restore is straightforward.

Do I own my domain and can I leave if I want to?

Yes to both. Your domain is registered in your name and you retain full ownership regardless of who hosts your site. If you ever want to move to a different host, I will provide everything you need — files, database exports, DNS records — to make that transition straightforward. There is no lock-in.
