Hosted by us. Picked for you.
We've already tasted every wine. Tell us what you're building, and we'll tell you where it should live — then provision it, monitor it, patch it, and answer the phone when something breaks.
When to hand us your hosting
Everythingshipswithevery plan.
The list below is the floor, not the ceiling. We'll add what your stack needs and tell you straight when something isn't worth paying for.
Stack-matched host selection
We don't sell you a host — we pick the one that fits the platform, traffic profile, and compliance needs. WP Engine for WordPress at scale. Pantheon or Acquia for Drupal. Vercel for Next. Shopify for commerce. No affiliate spin.
Provisioning + DNS + SSL
Fresh environments stood up with sane defaults: HTTPS everywhere, HTTP/3, modern TLS, www/apex normalization, email DNS (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), and a CDN tuned for your asset profile.
Daily backups, fast restores
Automated daily backups with 30-day retention, off-site replication, and tested restore drills. We've actually pulled the trigger — your backup is real, not theoretical.
24/7 uptime + performance monitoring
Synthetic checks every 60 seconds from multiple regions. Real-user monitoring on Core Web Vitals. Alerts page an on-call human, not a black hole inbox.
Security patching + WAF
Plugin, theme, and core updates with QA before they hit production. WAF rules tuned for your stack. Brute-force throttling, bot mitigation, and quarterly access reviews.
One invoice, one human
You pay us, we pay the host. No reseller markup games. One Slack channel, one email thread, one named engineer who knows your environment.
Sixsteps,zerodowntime.
Boring on purpose. Predictable migrations are how we sleep at night and how you keep your traffic.
Assess
Audit current hosting, traffic, integrations, and compliance needs. Document the gap between what you have and what you should have.
Recommend
Written recommendation: which host, which plan, which region, which CDN, and why. Pricing is laid out before you commit.
Provision
New environment, staging clone, DNS pre-warm, SSL, CDN, monitoring, and backup pipeline. All before traffic moves.
Migrate
Zero-downtime cut-over during a low-traffic window. Smoke tests against the new environment. 7-day rollback window kept warm.
Operate
Daily backups, security patching, performance tuning, incident response, and monthly health reports.
Optimize
Quarterly review of cost, performance, and capacity. We right-size before the bill grows or the site slows.
Hosts we deploy on, picked for fit (not commission).
Fourplans,one quality bar.
Pick the plan that fits today. We'll tell you honestly if a different tier is a better fit — or if you don't need us at all.

Q&A
Frequently asked questions
- Does DoodleWeb host the websites it builds?
- We pick and manage hosting on your behalf — WP Engine, Pantheon, Acquia, Kinsta, Cloudways, Vercel, Shopify, Webflow Cloud, or Cloudflare — depending on the platform, traffic profile, and compliance needs. One invoice, one point of contact.
- What is included in DoodleWeb managed hosting?
- Stack selection, provisioning, CDN, SSL, daily backups, uptime and performance monitoring, security patching, WAF rules, log review, and a single point of contact when something breaks. Response under one business hour for incidents.
- Can you migrate my site to a new host without downtime?
- Yes. Standard process: staging clone, DNS pre-warm with low TTL, traffic cut-over during a low-traffic window, smoke tests, and a 7-day rollback window if anything regresses. We have run hundreds of zero-downtime migrations.
- How much does managed hosting cost?
- Hosting plans start at $99/month for a single WordPress or Webflow site and scale to $1,500+/month for enterprise Drupal multisite or high-traffic Shopify Plus. You pay one invoice that covers infra cost plus our management fee — no markup games.
- Do you handle compliance hosting (HIPAA, FedRAMP, SOC 2)?
- Yes. We deploy into HIPAA-eligible (Acquia Cloud, AWS), FedRAMP-authorized (Pantheon Government, Acquia Cloud Site Factory), and SOC 2-aligned environments and provide BAAs and documentation for your audit.
- What happens if my site goes down at 2am?
- Our monitoring pages an on-call engineer within 60 seconds of an outage. You get a status update within 15 minutes and a written post-mortem within 48 hours of resolution. Your team does not have to wake up.
