WordFleet + Linode = Better WordPress

In the world of WordPress website hosting, admins must choose between costly premium host options, or cheaper alternatives that are difficult to use with less performance. 

Most low-cost managed WordPress hosting options pack users onto crowded servers with few guarantees for resources. As a result, one site becoming too busy may throttle the other sites on the same server, reducing their performance. 

At the other end of the spectrum, higher cost managed WordPress hosting options provide power and resources. But, they also charge premium prices on a per site basis while often imposing arbitrary limits on traffic.

WordFleet brings the best of both worlds while removing the arbitrary limits and excessive costs associated with managed hosting. As such, we provide a mix of great performance, ease-of-use, and cost-effectiveness.

About WordFleet

WordFleet is a privately-owned WordPress-as-a-Service cloud provider that has partnered with Linode to provide a modern approach to WordPress hosting.

Instead of billing on a per-server basis, we charge per server, meaning you can host and run multiple WordPress sites at no extra cost. We manage all aspects of server maintenance for you. Significantly, the number of sites that you can host is limited only by the size of your servers. And, we don’t impose arbitrary visitor limits. This makes running multiple sites via WordFleet more cost-effective than our competitors. 

By partnering with top-notch cloud providers like Linode, we can provide the power of the cloud with the simplicity of modern devops workflows. Linode’s premium servers provide excellent performance and uptime, while WordFleet’s easy to use interface makes spinning-up and managing multiple WordPress sites a snap. 

How we make WordPress better:

  • Per-server billing. No imposed site or visitor limits.
  • Standard servers start at $12/month. Dedicated servers start at $60/mo.
  • Create, delete, and resize servers on demand, just like you would a server via the Linode dashboard.
  • Import sites for free via our automatic WP import plugin.
  • Configurable development and staging workflows.
  • Easily install, copy, backup, and restore WordPress sites in just a few clicks.
  • Automated configuration of site URL, SEO, and other options.
  • Free automated site updates and backups.
  • Free automated server updates.
  • Streamlined dev to staging to live project workflow.
  • Deployment rollbacks and zero-downtime deployments.
  • Automatic TLS certificate management with support for Let’s Encrypt and CDNs.
  • Automated health checks and server and site repairs where possible.
  • Optional real-time health checks for mission-critical servers.
  • Platform support provided in-app.

How we save you money

For customers with multiple sites, WordFleet offers significant savings. With other managed hosts you might spend $30 to $150 (or even more) per month for each site. On the other hand, with WordFleet you can fit multiple sites on a private server in the cloud for as little as $12/month, and you can scale up as needed.

Take advantage of Linode’s 99.99% uptime SLA

By using Linode servers, your WordPress sites take advantage of Linode’s 99.99% uptime SLA commitment. WordFleet uses a fault-tolerant server management system which enables servers and the sites on them to operate normally even if our central service and web dashboard experience a moment of downtime.

Choose WordFleet for a better today

WordFleet servers start at $12/month for standard servers and $60/month for dedicated Linode servers. We don’t lock you in, and you can cancel any time for a prorated refund.
