Core & plugin maintenance
WordPress core and plugin updates are handled for you, included in every plan. Security fixes go on as soon as they’re released — no more update nags or surprise breakages.
Your WordPress site, looked after by a developer who has your back
GorillaWP is boutique WordPress hosting with a personal touch. An experienced web developer maintains your site — hosting, updates, security, backups and speed — so you never have to think about it. You manage the content. We take care of the tech side.
- Core & plugin updates included
- 24/7 uptime monitoring
- Free migrations
Hosting on Auto-Pilot
We take care of it all.
We’re a small team of web developers with years of WordPress experience. We keep our client list boutique on purpose, so we know your site and can give it real attention — while you put it to work attracting more amazing customers.
Every plan includes WordPress core and plugin maintenance, 24/7 uptime monitoring and reliable email delivery — no add-ons to buy and no surprise upgrades.
See Plans24/7 uptime monitoring
We watch your site around the clock. If it goes down, we’re alerted right away and get to work on it — often before you notice.
Email delivery & logging
Contact forms, password resets and store receipts are sent through Amazon SES, with every message logged so we can confirm it was delivered.
Backed up three ways
Local and off-site site backups with 30 days of history, plus whole-server snapshots for disaster recovery.
Security hardening
Server firewall, brute-force protection and vulnerability scanning, plus free SSL on every site.
High-frequency VMs
3 GHz+ CPUs and NVMe SSD storage make PHP, database queries and wp-admin noticeably faster.
A WordPress-tuned stack
A server stack built only for WordPress, with server-level page caching and Redis object caching.
Never over-utilized
We keep plenty of headroom on every server, so a busy neighbour never slows your site down.
Built for speed,
tuned for WordPress
We don’t cram hundreds of sites onto a shared box. Every server is sized with headroom and tuned specifically for WordPress, so pages load fast and wp-admin stays snappy.
- Faster WordPress pages: high-clock CPUs run PHP quicker, so pages build fast and wp-admin and the block editor stay responsive.
- Faster database: a tuned MySQL on NVMe storage speeds up queries, searches and WooCommerce checkouts.
- Cached at every layer: NGINX page caching for visitors and Redis object caching for logged-in users and stores.
- Room to grow: servers are sized with headroom and never over-utilized.
- Backed up three ways: local site backups, remote off-site backups and whole-server snapshots.
- Your choice of region: Canada, US East or US West.
