Your website should help your business—not become another technical problem
Website hosting is often treated as a commodity until something goes wrong. A slow website, failed update, compromised plugin or missing backup can quickly turn into lost enquiries, damaged trust and hours spent trying to reach support.
DotServer provides hosting as a managed service. We monitor the website, manage the infrastructure, maintain the essential components and give you a real person to contact when you need help.
Three ways to stop worrying about hosting
Managed WordPress Hosting
You like your website and want to continue using WordPress—but you do not want to manage updates, security, backups and performance yourself. We host it, protect it and keep it maintained.
Explore Managed WordPressWebsite Freedom
Your website depends on WordPress, but you are tired of plugin updates, security warnings, maintenance costs or an increasingly complicated administration area. We rebuild it on a faster, simpler and more secure foundation while preserving the design, content, search visibility and essential functionality.
Discover Website FreedomBusiness and Cloud Hosting
Applications, busy e-commerce sites and specialist platforms need more than a basic hosting account. We design and manage infrastructure around the website, its traffic, its security requirements and the importance it has to your business.
Discuss Your RequirementsHosting managed properly
We handle the migration
Moving a website should not become your project. We assess the current setup, prepare the new environment, transfer the website, test it and coordinate the launch.
Security comes as standard
Security is not an optional extra. We configure protection, access controls, SSL, monitoring and backups according to the type of website being hosted.
Backups you can depend on
Backups are taken automatically and stored separately from the live website. Where appropriate, we test recovery rather than simply assuming that a backup exists.
Performance is continuously reviewed
We monitor availability and investigate performance problems instead of waiting for customers to report that something feels slow.
Support from someone who understands your website
You are not passed between sales staff, first-line scripts and anonymous departments. You speak to someone who can understand the problem and take responsibility for resolving it.
Stuck with WordPress?
WordPress may have been the right choice when your website was built. That does not mean you need to remain tied to it forever.
Many business websites use WordPress simply to display services, information, photographs, news and contact forms. Yet the owner is still responsible for a live database, an administration login, themes, plugins, updates and security maintenance. Website Freedom removes that unnecessary complexity.
You keep your domain, content, branding and search visibility. We replace the complicated machinery behind them.

Talk to DotServerFrequently asked
Can you move my existing website?
Yes. We migrate WordPress websites and many other common website platforms. We first assess the current website, email configuration, domain and any specialist functionality.
Will my website go offline during migration?
Most of the migration is completed before any live changes are made. There may be a short transition while domain settings update, but migrations are planned to minimise disruption.
Do you provide email hosting?
Email can be reviewed as part of the migration, but website hosting and business email are normally managed separately. We can recommend or manage an appropriate business email service.
Can I keep WordPress?
Yes. DotServer provides fully managed WordPress hosting for customers who want to retain their current website and editing system.
Do I have to keep WordPress?
No. Website Freedom is designed for businesses that want to preserve their website while removing the WordPress platform behind it.
Will I still be able to change my website?
Yes. DotServer can make changes for you, or we can provide an easier editing system where regular self-editing is required.
Who is behind DotServer?
DotServer is a specialist managed hosting service operated by W3IT, a technology company providing websites, cloud infrastructure, cybersecurity and managed IT services.
