Services · Hosting & Care

Hosting that someone actually looks after.

Most businesses get let down by hosting: inadequate backups, no one who cares when something breaks. We run our own Australian hosting so we can tune each site, fix problems ourselves and answer the phone.

What’s included

Hosting & Care, in detail

  • Managed Australian hosting

    Physical Australian data centres plus Amazon and Vultr cloud where it fits. WordPress, static and PHP packages, with DNS managed for you.

  • Backups and recovery

    Managed daily backups you never have to think about, and a person who restores them when you need it.

  • Security

    Two-factor login, VPN access where required, firewalling and monitoring. Built for always-on business with 99.9% uptime.

  • WordPress maintenance

    Core, plugin and theme updates done carefully, performance tuning, and small changes handled as they come up.

  • Business email

    Branded mailboxes with webmail and support, plus spam filtering with a quarantine you can check yourself.

  • SpamForms

    Our own product. Stops bot and junk submissions before they reach your inbox, keeps every real lead in a searchable dashboard, and works with any form.

  3. 03

    Tuned and monitored

    Caching, resources and security set for your site, then watched.

    One phone number

    Hosting, email, spam and WordPress questions all go to the same team.

FAQ

Questions we get asked

Why host with a web developer instead of a hosting company?

Because when something breaks, the people who built the site are the people fixing the server. No ticket queue between two vendors blaming each other.

Where is my data stored?

In Australian data centres. Cloud resources from Amazon and Vultr are used where a site needs them, also in Australian regions.

Can you migrate my existing site?

Yes, and the review and migration are free. We copy the site, test it on our hosting, then switch DNS at a quiet time.

What does WordPress maintenance actually include?

Updates applied and checked, security scanning, performance tuning, uptime monitoring, and a sensible amount of small changes each quarter.

Client stories

From clients who started with this

  • “We couldn’t imagine being in business without them.”

    For over a decade, George and the team at Intellecta have been in our corner. We’ve seen them execute the most complicated projects, simplify our ideas, and deliver on time with exceptional results. They’ve guided our business strategically, stopped us from shooting ourselves in the foot, and helped us formulate our direction. Calling them “web developers” doesn’t do them justice. They’re in a class all of their own.

    Louise BedfordOwner, The Trading Game
  • “They listen, they understand, they add to the vision and they do.”

    In the early days of our business we concluded that the only way to create a website that required constant development, improvement and flexibility was to learn to do it ourselves. Then we found Intellecta. Your service is fantastic. I’m so glad I chose Intellecta!

    Marcus PadleyDirector and Owner, Marcus Today
  • “How patient they are with us, even as a small start-up.”

    They’ve worked with our company since 2015, and ever since they’ve always made us feel like we are fresh clients. They are very responsive to every email and query, they are also very good at what they do and we will not hesitate to recommend them to our friends and colleagues.

    Marimi T.Owner, Bridges Immigration Support
  • “They have helped our online business grow from strength to strength.”

    I have worked with George and his team of web experts for many years now and they have helped our online business grow from strength to strength. They were always there to support us and provide guidance, and there have been many times when George and his team have gone above and beyond to help us through many situations.
