Frequently Asked Questions

We've been building websites since 2007. In that time we've worked with a lot of folks. We've learned a lot along the way and we've answered a lot of questions. Here are some that we hear most frequently.

Website Design & Development

See our site packages

Your website is the heart of your online world. The hub. The mothership. The buck, quite literally, stops here. The web world has matured rapidly and user expectations are higher and more demanding than ever before. Your brand's credibility is significantly impacted by how well you present yourself online.

We build websites as a matter of course. Sure we build websites. We build beautiful and legit websites but the reason we build websites is to give your marketing efforts a fighting chance. What's the use of running marketing campaigns if your traffic doesn't convert to customers?

Managed WordPress Cloud Hosting

If only you could see what we've seen.
It's true: some people still believe that $7 hosting is good hosting. It's not. Many clients who come to us for website makeovers are hosting their site on shared environments at low cost. They know their sites are underperforming but don't know why their sites are underperforming. So much of that slowness and poor reliability comes from bad web hosts. Thankfully that's easily remedied.

how our hosting worksand why you should care!

As a managed WordPress host, Flywheel is going to take care of a bunch of the technical nitty-gritty stuff, so you can get back to doing what you love and growing your business.

Here are the main benefits of a true managed WordPress host like Flywheel:

Managed caching and performance: We handle caching for you at the server level, using super fast servers to begin with, and even work individually with our customers to further optimize their sites for the best performance. No plugins needed!

Managed security: We proactively scan and block malware and hacking attempts. We do all of this at the server level, without the need for any plugins or configuration on the part of the customer. And in the unlikely event that your site is hacked, we’ll fix it for you, free of charge.

Managed software updates: We’ll work with you to make sure your site is always running the latest and greatest WordPress software.

Expert WordPress support: Our team of WordPress experts goes above and beyond what nearly any other managed hosting company will help out with. From “hey, I need help, I have a serious problem!“, to “can you recommend a plugin for XYZ,” we’re here to help.

Those are the core pieces of what it means to be a true managed WordPress hosting provider. If you have any questions, let us know!

Yes, we'll handle this for you at no additional cost. We want your hosting business after all! Your migration will be hassle-free, though we will require access to your previous hosting company and we'll need admin access to your website in order to move it. You may also need to provide us with authorization keys to any premium themes or plugins you've purchased for your site, as those authorizations will often break when moved to a new server.

eCommerce & Pay Forms

Running eCommerce online once required learning difficult platforms which made for good shopping carts but weren't very good for much else. Now WooCommerce adds full store capabilities to your existing WordPress website while retaining the excellent WordPress features you've grown to rely on.

"Christopher's technical knowledge and capabilities are deep and always beyond current, and I know I can fully rely on him and his team to do great things — allowing me to focus on what *I* do best. What's really made working with him for over a decade such a great experience, though, is his emotional intelligence, his ability to really "get" me and the folks I want to reach. That's a rare experience anywhere, let alone in the world of tech, and it's what puts his work way over the top."

He has been the voice of reason and honest feedback that I've needed to assist my business in moving forward in a direction that I feel great about. He's a rare gem in the web space and I'm grateful for his first-class service. I give PXLPOD the highest recommendation!"
