That's for a managed WP host. I agree that the $50/mo price comes out of nowhere, but you're still not going to find one for $20/mo as you would with Ghost. Gh

Ghost is 20 times faster. And once you add a single WP plugin, it's 100 times faster.

- oddevan 8y agoI imagine there's a difference between "managed hosting" (host handles OS/package updates and maintains your LAMP stack) and "managed WordPress hosting" (host handles all of the above AND core WordPress updates, basic security, etc).
- extra88 8y agoDreampress's non-shared hosting plans include "Wordpress Service Updates" which surely includes core Wordpress updates and updates to plugins they include, like Jetpack. It might also cover updating a list of the most popular plugins. For security beyond running updated software, it includes a Wordpress-tuned web application firewall and the $24.95/month tier includes "Malware Scanning & Repair."
- wolco 8y agoCan't find 20 dollars a month for a managed wp? For 4 dollars a month you can. https://www.siteground.com/wpbeginner-managed https://www.siteground.com/wpbeginner-managed 50 dollars a month seems extremely costly. For that amount $600 a year it would be cheaper to hire someone to self host for you.
