Website Hosting

Host your website with us.
Our hosting has been customised to work perfectly with our maintenance plans, and as a result, we can keep a close eye on performance and act very quickly to any issues. When you host elsewhere, we can not control what your host does or doesn't do in terms of security and performance, SSL certificates etc.

This does mean we will have to migrate your site from where it is now to our servers. It also means if you have business email accounts linked to your current hosting, you may lose them depending on how they are hosted, but we can help recreate them if you select the G suite business email addon.

Please note there is no requirement for you to host with us. We can still provide our full maintenance service regardless of where your site is hosted.

Google Business Email Add-on

Price is per email address/account. you can select quantity at checkout.

NOTE: If you are already using google business email or outlook business email do not select this addon!

We don't host email accounts but if you require a business email we will set this up for you and manage it for you via Google's business service.

This is google business-class email (gmail) service where you can have a business email linked to your domain like info@yourdomain.com but have the emails run through google servers. This means industry-leading spam protection while having your email delivered properly with top-notch deliverability rather than your email ending up in your customer's spam folders.

ThriveWP

Website Management Service Terms of Service

Introduction

Although there is also some unavoidable standardized legalese at various places in the document which our attorney required, in this document we try to write everything in plain English. To do this, we frequently use terms like “we” and “you.” “We,” “us,” “our,” and “the Company” means ThriveWP, a business registered in the United Kingdom. “You,” “your,” “Customer” or “Client” in this document is you, our Client.

Current Hourly Rate

Throughout this document, reference is made to our current hourly rate. This rate is defined as our hourly rate that is in place at the time a service is requested, not at the time this agreement is signed. We will provide you with our current hourly rate upon request.

Availability and Communication

We are available via email and phone Monday through Thursday from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm, Fridays from 8:00 am to 12:00 pm GMT time. Our normal response time is one business day, though our response time may vary. We do not work on weekends or holidays. Clients with current website management services receive priority response times.

Office phone and email are the primary means of communication accepted for our work together. We do not communicate via text message, social media, or instant/private messaging (like Facebook Messenger) to communicate since we cannot track these requests as a team.

Website Hosting

We offer hosting as part of our maintenance plans. If you elect not to host on our server that is no problem but we cannot be responsible for the speed of your website, the performance of any of your website features, security certificates for your website, the uptime of your website, or any other hosting related matter.

FIXING ANY PROBLEMS RELATED TO WEB HOSTING, OR PROJECT DELAYS RELATED TO WEB HOSTING ON A SERVER OTHER THAN OUR OWN IS BILLABLE AT OUR CURRENTLY HOURLY RATE.

We use commercially reasonable efforts to make sites that we host available 99.9% of the time during each monthly billing cycle. However, situations can arise, and we will endeavor to fix such issues in a timely fashion.

Website Management Service

Our Website Management includes website software updates, website backups, website security as well as several other added benefits outlined on our website.

Website Security
Our lockdown protocol hardens the WordPress system to make it more resistant to the actions of hackers. We employ industry leading security software that actively guards your website against hack attempts at multiple levels in the WordPress system. This includes an advanced firewall that in most cases can block malicious traffic before it even gets to your site.
Website Backups
Your website’s files and database will be backed up automatically each day in two different locations. This backup is stored in our cloud data vault where we typically retain the previous 90 backups for your site.
Software Updates
Each week, at our discretion, we will apply available updates for the WordPress core software, your theme files, and your plugin files. We perform these updates for the items that appear in the “Updates” area of your WordPress dashboard. We also watch WordPress industry security news and proactively perform these updates more frequently during times of enhanced threat levels. We also test major updates on a staging site before doing them live to prevent issues.

While it is impossible to guarantee that your site will never be hacked, all of these techniques make your website a more difficult target for hackers. In addition, it is well known that hackers tend to exploit easier targets first – sites without security measures in place. However, in the event that your site is hacked, we will restore it to pre-hack condition at no additional cost either by restoring a site backup or performing a malware cleanup at our discretion.

Restoring Backups
Should your site become compromised by a hack or if your site becomes inoperable because of user error, we will restore a backup for you.
If the restorations are the result of a hack, there is no limit to the number of restorations we will perform for you under this service.
If the restorations are due to user error, we will perform a maximum of 2 restorations in any 30-day period.
Additional user error-related restorations will be performed at our current hourly rate with a one-hour minimum.

Premium (Paid) Themes and Plugins
Many websites use themes and/or plugins that require the payment of a recurring license fee to maintain access to ongoing software updates.
If your website uses premium themes and/or plugins and we do not have appropriate licensing, the responsibility is yours for maintaining the appropriate licensing to ensure the availability of updates.
We will advise you of the themes and/or plugins for which you will need to maintain licensing and assist you as needed in the process of obtaining them.

WE CANNOT BE HELD LIABLE FOR PROBLEMS SUCH AS BUT NOT LIMITED TO HACKS, INOPERABILITY OR INTERCOMPATIBILITY THAT ARISE FROM PREMIUM PLUGINS WHICH YOU CHOOSE NOT TO LICENSE AND ARE OUT OF DATE.

THIS ALSO APPLIES TO CUSTOM BUILT THEMES THAT ANOTHER COMPANY HAS BUILT AND NOW DOES NOT SUPPORT. WE WILL NOT REWRITE OR EDIT OTHERS CODE.Plugin Compatibility

If an update to a plugin creates conflicts or causes issues with the functionality of your website, we will consult with you to determine the best course of action. Typically, we will remove the offending plugin and replace it with a similar plugin or other programming. If the time required to resolve a plugin compatibility issue exceeds 3 hours, additional time will be billable at our current hourly rate.

IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO INFORM US IF YOUR SITE IS EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS AND NEEDS ATTENTION.

IF YOU ELECT NOT TO PURCHASE OUR WEBSITE MANAGEMENT SERVICE, THE TOTAL RESPONSIBILITY IS YOURS FOR PERFORMING BACKUPS AND KEEPING WORDPRESS (AND ITS THEMES AND PLUGINS) UPDATED.

If you desire to migrate your website to another web host. We will at your discretion (1) provide you with an administrator login for your WordPress site so a backup can be performed and migrated to the new location, (2) provide to you a backup created using an industry standard WordPress backup system, or (3) perform the website migration for you at our current hourly rate.

Late Payment and Collections Policy

All invoices pertaining to web hosting, security, maintenance, or any other work on your website are payable on receipt. If an invoice goes unpaid for more than 30 days after the invoice was sent, WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO SUSPEND YOUR WEBSITE FROM PUBLIC VIEW UNTIL ALL OUTSTANDING BILLS ARE CURRENT.

Your Responsibilities in Website Security

Although we apply our advanced security to your site. Studies have shown that one of the most common ways that hackers gain access to your website is through keylogging programs installed on the infected computers of users. You agree to protect any computer that will log into the website by:

Installing and maintaining updated security software
Using the most up-to-date version of your preferred web browser
Keeping the operating system patched with recommended updates
Keeping versions of other installed software up to date if they are installed.

You also agree to use a strong password (as shown by the WordPress password indicator) for any account you use to log in and edit your website, and that this password will only be used on your website. We recommend the use of a password manager so that you have strong unique passwords for every site you access.

We can help with a couple of solutions to improve deliverability.
