Managed hosting

Web hosting for small business

You need website hosting that stays online, loads fast, and does not require you to become a sysadmin. I provide managed hosting for Australian small businesses on SiteGround or cloud, with setup and support handled for you.

The problem

Stop wrestling with hosting

Most small business owners do not want to compare VPS plans or debug DNS at midnight. They want a site that works.

Common gaps

  • You bought hosting but have no idea if it is set up correctly.
  • Your site is slow, offline, or SSL warnings scare customers away.
  • You are paying for a cheap plan with no real support when something breaks.

What we fix

  • Hosting on reliable SiteGround or cloud infrastructure, configured properly from day one.
  • One person to contact when something goes wrong, not a ticket queue.
  • SSL and the hosting environment kept running, configured properly from day one.

What small business hosting actually needs

You do not need a dedicated server or AWS for a typical tradie, clinic, or local service website. You need shared or managed hosting that is fast enough, secure (HTTPS), and stays online.

Domain registration is separate from hosting. If you still need a domain, see our domain guides. If you already have a site and only need hosting moved or managed, that is what this service is for.

Managed hosting is typically $20/month for a standard small business site. SiteSubs custom builds include the same hosting as part of the package. If your requirements are unusual (large migration, multiple sites, heavy traffic), I will quote before we start.

What's included

What managed hosting includes

Straightforward hosting for business owners who want it handled, not explained for the tenth time.

  • SiteGround or cloud hosting

    WordPress and brochure sites run on SiteGround. Custom SiteSubs builds run on modern cloud hosting. Mainstream platforms either way, no cheap or experimental infrastructure.

  • Setup and migration

    I configure hosting, point your domain, and move an existing site if you are switching from another provider.

  • SSL and basics

    HTTPS enabled and the hosting environment kept running. Core hosting settings handled so visitors see a professional, secure site.

  • Direct support

    When hosting issues hit, you email Charlie. No wading through offshore chat bots for something urgent.

Who builds your site

One professional. No middlemen.

I'm Charlie - a web developer-designer with over 10 years of experience building high-performance websites for businesses of all sizes. When you work with me, you work with me. No account managers, no outsourced teams, no playing telephone with your feedback.

I started SiteSubs because I saw too many business owners getting burned - paying agencies thousands for slow, bloated sites, or trying to do it themselves and looking unprofessional online. There's a better way: transparent pricing, custom design, and sites that actually convert traffic. I offer hosting the same way I build sites: one person accountable, honest scope, no lock-in games.
