Why Cheap WordPress Hosting Costs You More in the Long Run

We Don’t Just Host Your Website. We Keep Your Business Running.

Most WordPress hosting companies sell you cheap monthly plans, then disappear when you need help. Want to update a page? That’s extra. Site broken after a plugin update? That’ll be $150 per hour. Need your site to load faster? You’ll need to upgrade to a more expensive plan. That’s not hosting. That’s a trap.

Four Stripes takes a completely different approach. We don’t just keep your WordPress website online—we actively manage, maintain, and support it so you never face unexpected bills or downtime that costs you customers.

WordPress Website Hosting Packages for New Zealand Businesses

Most WordPress hosting companies lure you in with cheap monthly rates, then hit you with setup fees, transfer costs, domain renewals, and hourly charges for every update or fix. We do the opposite. Pay upfront and save hundreds. Get full-service WordPress website hosting with ongoing management, expert support, and no surprise bills—all included in one transparent price.

(5/5)
Step 1: Grant Access

We need two things from you: access to your current WordPress site and your domain login credentials. That’s it. No complicated technical requirements or server configurations on your end.

What happens:

  • We audit your current site and hosting setup
  • Check for compatibility issues or plugins that need updating
  • Create a complete backup before we begin
  • Provide you with a migration timeline
Step 2: We Migrate Everything

Our team handles the complete WordPress website transfer—files, database, emails (if required), everything. We test thoroughly on our servers before making your site live to ensure zero downtime.

What happens:

  • Full site migration to Four Stripes servers
  • Database transfer and configuration
  • Email setup and DNS configuration
  • SSL certificate installation
  • Performance optimisation and speed testing
Step 3: Go Live & Ongoing Support

Once testing is complete, we point your domain to our servers and your site goes live. From that moment, you’re covered with ongoing maintenance, security monitoring, and expert NZ-based support.

What happens:

  • DNS updated (usually takes 24-48 hours to fully propagate)
  • Daily backups begin automatically
  • Performance monitoring activated
  • You gain access to your hosting dashboard
  • Ongoing maintenance and support starts immediately

FAQ’s

What's the difference between Four Stripes hosting and cheap hosting providers?

Cheap WordPress hosting companies give you server space and basic support—everything else costs extra. Need a content update? That’s $150/hour. Site broken after a plugin update? You’ll wait days for support. Four Stripes includes ongoing website management, content updates, performance monitoring, and expert NZ-based support in every hosting plan. We don’t just keep your site online—we actively manage it so you never face surprise bills or downtime.

How long does it take to migrate my WordPress website to Four Stripes?

Most WordPress website migrations are completed within 3-5 business days. We handle everything—you just provide access to your current site and domain. There’s minimal downtime during the transfer. We migrate your files, database, and emails to our servers, test everything thoroughly, then point your domain to us once we’re confident it’s working perfectly. You’ll be notified at every step of the process.

What's included in "General Maintenance" and what costs extra?

General Maintenance includes text updates, image changes, and content edits—resolved within 24-72 hours with no additional charges. This covers the day-to-day updates that keep your WordPress site current. Structural changes like adding new pages, new functionality, additional sections, or design modifications are quoted separately. We’re transparent about what’s included so you never get surprise invoices.

Why should I pay upfront for 12 months instead of monthly?

The 12-month plan saves you $494 compared to paying monthly. You’ll avoid the $106 setup & transfer fee, get your $64 annual domain renewal included free, and pay just $67/month instead of $94/month. That’s nearly $500 in savings—plus you’ll never have to worry about renewals or price increases for an entire year. Most of our clients choose the 12-month plan because it’s the best value for professional WordPress website hosting in New Zealand.

Can you host any website or just WordPress sites?

Four Stripes only hosts WordPress websites. This allows us to specialise in WordPress-specific optimisation, security, and support. If your site is built on another platform (Wix, Squarespace, Shopify, custom HTML), we can rebuild it on WordPress first, then host it with our managed service. Our WordPress website development service can help with that.

What happens if my WordPress site gets hacked or breaks?

We monitor your site 24/7 for security threats and suspicious activity. If something goes wrong, we fix it immediately—that’s included in your hosting. We also take monthly automated backups of your entire WordPress website, so if anything catastrophic happens, we can restore your site within hours. Unlike cheap hosting providers that leave you stranded, you’ll have expert NZ-based support handling the issue right away.

Do you provide hosting for websites outside of New Zealand?

Yes, we can host WordPress websites for businesses anywhere, but our servers are optimized for New Zealand audiences. If most of your customers are in NZ, you’ll get faster load times and better performance with our hosting. We also provide NZ-based support during business hours, which means faster response times compared to offshore hosting companies.

Can I cancel my hosting plan anytime?

The monthly plan ($94/month) can be cancelled anytime with 30 days’ notice. The 6-month and 12-month plans are paid upfront and non-refundable, but there’s no auto-renewal—you simply choose whether to continue at the end of your term. Most clients renew because our WordPress website hosting and ongoing management saves them time and money compared to dealing with technical issues themselves.
