One plan per site, not one plan for everything.

Each site runs on its own tier, billed by the day: a $5 brochure beside a $25 store. Scale any site up or down any day, and pay only for what it is.

Real hosting features, explained.

Every InstaWP site is full WordPress on a real server. Here's what actually runs it, in detail.

01 · Performance · InstaCDN

Served from the edge, in milliseconds.

Every page and asset is delivered from the nearest global edge location. CSS and JS are Brotli-compressed, and static responses are cached at the edge. Purge a site's cache in one click or from the API, and watch hit-rate per site.

origin · hub Global edge

02 · Security · InstaShield

Attacks blocked before they reach WordPress.

A managed firewall with maintained OWASP rules sits in front of every site, with DDoS mitigation, bot filtering and rate limiting. SSL is issued and renewed automatically for every domain. You see exactly what was stopped in the firewall log. No security plugin, no premium add-on.

03 · Recovery · Backups

Break something? Roll back in seconds.

Automatic off-site backups, daily on Plus plans and up, plus on-demand backups you can create any time before a risky change, all saved as restore points you can browse and restore in seconds. Restore the whole site, and download any restore point whenever you want it.

04 · Workflow · Staging to production

Build on a sandbox, go live in one click.

Start on a $2 sandbox, then promote the same site to a live tier with one click. Same URL, same data, no export, no import, no migration plugin. Push only the changes you want from staging without clobbering live content.

05 · Control · Developer access

A real server, not a locked-down panel.

Full, unrestricted WordPress with SSH on every plan, from the browser terminal or your own. Run WP-CLI, deploy with Git, tail logs, edit over SFTP, switch PHP versions and tune limits. Install anything you like. The guardrails other managed hosts put up simply aren't here.

Also on InstaWP

Persistent object cache Plus plans and up

A Valkey object cache holds queries and transients, so logged-in and WooCommerce pages stay fast under load.

Domains & SSL

Buy a domain in-platform or map your own. DNS and certificates handled and auto-renewed. Resell white-label.

Uptime & SSL monitoring Included with InstaWP site management

Multi-region checks with response-time history, plus email and Slack alerts.

Per-site daily billing

Each site on its own $5 to $45 tier, billed by the day. Change any tier any day, prorated. No annual contract.

Fleet management

Run every client site from one dashboard: bulk plugin and theme updates, health checks, white-label reports.

InstaOptimize Pro plans and up

Media is compressed and reformatted automatically, with no quality drop you'll notice and no plugin to manage. Available on Pro plans and up.

Object cache dropped after I moved this site to Production.

That tier includes object cache, it just needs re-enabling. You can toggle it in Cache settings. I checked your site, it's connected again now ✓
