Added a new dedicated plan

I added a new dedicated plan.

Basically, for $2900/month, we take a dedicated server with 64 GB RAM, 450 GB SSD Space (for the websites) and 1 Gbps uplink and host up to 10 WordPress installs for the customer.

It's great because it saves him the hassle of managing the dedicated server himself so we take care of everything related to the technical side of the server and the WordPress websites on hosted on it (that is Security, Updates and Performance). It also gives him the best option for faster websites.

The plan comes with unlimited bandwidth as always, great for websites receiving +1M visits per month. A similar plan with Kinsta or WPEngine would certainly cost +$2000 and I am sure they won't have a dedicated server for anyone at that price or even match our offer.

On top of that, we offer 5000 GB worth of CDN (split among the websites hosted) using KeyCDN. I am sure this plan will kickass but looking at the price, WPNoise has to build a reputation first.

What do you think?

      It's not the same thing. I've read a lot of reviews about Linode and from the price, I know that it isn't dedicated at all and they have limited bandwidth (which is common when the resources are not dedicated, like connection port).

      This is the pricing of the industry, Managed WordPress hosting is not cheap. As you can see on Kinsta, their $1500/m plan doesn't even come close to what we offer. $2900/m is to have someone set up the server and manage it for maximum speed and performance. This also includes maintaining the 10 WordPress websites that are going to be hosted on it.

      WPBuffs, for example, charges $197/m per website just to keep WordPress up to date, optimize speed, check for malware, make backups, etc...

      Also, taking the dedicated plan costs $2900/m ($2500/m when billed yearly) for 10 websites while if you took the normal plan 10 times it would cost around $3500/m ($2990/m when billed yearly).

        http://wpoven.com has unlimited WordPress install in $300/month. It's a fully managed service as you are offering. I think $2900 is too much.

          Yes, compared to what they offer it's expensive. But for someone with 10 websites, it costs less than taking 10 normal plans at $350/m.

          I think it's cheap shared hosting. How can they offer unlimited websites at that pricing while big players like Kinsta and WPEngine offer a limited number of installs at that price?

          For $2900, it's a dedicated server with 1Gbps uplink and 64 GB RAM that has a maximum of 10 websites hosted for the same client on CloudLinux and Nginx, everything is taken care of for maximum speed, security, and reliability. I doubt that their offer is really the same on the backend since it costs more than that just to hire a sysadmin to manage such a server.

          1. 1

            As far I know it's dedicated VPS hosting. For $2900 companies can hire two full-time developers wo can manage their service. What I am trying to say that $2900 seems very costly.
