PressyPress: Managed WordPress Hosting as a Service

Hey everyone! I'm Jaime and this is my first product launch 🚀

I made PressyPress with a simple goal. Make WordPress hosting simple and approachable, with a transparent, modern and customer-friendly experience with zero upsells, price hikes or fineprint renewal prices.

Building websites over the past 15 years, I’ve been a customer at dozens of hosts and have served as CSM and Product Lead at a US-based web hosting and domain registrar company.

Many hosts start affordable with intro pricing and price hike you on the renewal, have monthly prices at 3x the advertised price, gate basic features behind addons, and then you still have to deal with cPanel or DirectAdmin anyway. Some charge you for the most basic things like SSL or backups.

Over my career, I've found this to be a common complaint people have with their web hosts. Most customers just want to have a simple website that works. 40%. have a short term project or don’t know if things will work out. They sell you a better plans to make unlimited websites just to have that one extra thing you need for one website. It’s not a great customer experience.

PressyPress is a web hosting solution that breaks tradition with those practices. By focusing on user experience and bringing the managed hosting features into our own UX and UI, we can offer a great Managed WordPress hosting product that’s easier to use for both beginners and advanced users.

Here's how it works:

There’s no cPanel or intermediate server control panel to deal with. There’s only the PressyPress dashboard and your /wp-admin.

You deploy a Pressy, a containerised WordPress instance with allocated resources and settings, that you manage individually. Change vCPU, Memory and Storage anytime.

Paying homage to the opensource nature of WordPress, all features are included on every plan.

Theme and plugins auto-updates, One-click staging, Backups, SSL, SFTP/SSH, Node for Headless, Redis, Custom domains, Firewall, Easy PHP, Malware Protection, and more - everything is just one or two clicks away in your dashboard and can be activated very quickly.

It's a traditional service in a modern and feature-rich package, specifically for WordPress, that hopes to be a better experience for individuals, small business owners, freelancers and agencies managing their WordPress websites. You can have a WordPress running on your own domain in just a few minutes.

This project has been years in the making, and I really appreciate you checking out the platform. I'm super excited to launch and would love to have some feedback on the service! There's a lot more features coming and improvements to our product as we grow over our first year.

Thank you everyone! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or want a free migration :)
