Managed WordPress Hosting
Own your own website without the hassle
WordPress gives you ownership over your website. That means you won’t lose all your content overnight if something happens to the hosting platform. It gives you full control and peace of mind that your website belongs to you, not an internet landlord.
But, with that ownership comes a lot of admin.
When Chunky Duck hosts your website, our tech wizards take care of all updates, maintenance and troubleshooting. They work their magic, so you can focus on smashing business goals.

We magic up the Tech Stuff…
Our tech wizards (Luke & Prince), monitor your website to make sure it always runs smoothly and securely. All the checks and updates go on in the background, so you don’t need to worry about keeping on top of it.
Security
Up-to-date attack prevention at all times
Incident Response
Fast recovery if something goes wrong
Customer Experience
A faster website making happy customers
… So you get the best of both worlds
Chunky Duck has partnered with WP Engine to give you full ownership over your website and all its contents. But you also get a single point of contact to sort out the technical side of things.
We use WP Engine because it’s specially built to host WordPress websites. That means you get the best tech, systems and expertise. If you need something changed or added, our quacktastic tech wizards will magic it up in no time.Every Chunky Duck WordPress website is fast, scalable and secure. You never have to worry about outgrowing your site, because we look after the tricky bits as your business grows.
Your dedicated technology account manager is always on hand to support you and translate tech jargon into normal language.
