Count the sites and resources
Growth plans allow up to three live websites and Professional plans up to ten. Review the storage, mailbox and database allowances for the chosen web or WordPress service.
Hosting for agencies
Room for the websites you look after.
Compare multi-site hosting and managed cloud options for the business websites your agency or small team maintains.
The practical picture
A portfolio needs more than a site count.
Agency hosting needs to fit the number of sites, their individual workloads and the way your team supports customers. Defined’s listed plans offer defined live website allowances, with managed cloud options for more specialised requirements.
Keep responsibilities clear
Agree who owns hosting, application maintenance, domain registrations and customer access. Document the route for support and changes.
Plan each move carefully
Group sites by their software, email and trading requirements. Test each one and agree the order of migration rather than changing every service at once.
The details that matter
Make the handover as clear as the build.
Keep ownership visible
Record who owns each domain, account and website, and who can authorise changes. Individual access and a clear offboarding process help avoid confusion when a client or supplier changes.
Separate hosting from your service agreement
Explain maintenance, backups, support availability and renewal responsibilities in the arrangement with each client. Do not assume that an infrastructure feature covers every service an agency promises.
Made for the working day
Build the hosting around the application.
A portfolio can include a quiet brochure site, a busy shop and a site with specialist integrations. They do not all need the same setup. We can help you compare the listed multi-site plans with a managed cloud configuration and decide how to organise the services around your customers and team.
Talk through your requirements
A little clarity
Hosting for agencies, explained.
Useful answers before you decide. For anything specific to your website, let’s talk it through.
Is this an unlimited reseller hosting account?
The listed Defined plans have stated website and resource allowances. They are not the same product as 20i’s direct reseller account. Talk to us about a portfolio that needs a different arrangement.
Can I use WordPress staging?
Our listed WordPress plans include staging and cloning. Review the live site allowance and choose the plan that fits the portfolio.
Can you help plan several migrations?
Yes. Start with a list of the sites, software, domains and email services so we can work through the requirements and agree the scope.
