Managed hosting for a fast website

Moving your website should not cause unexpected changes to email or other services on your domain. We first map where your domain, DNS, website, and mailboxes are managed. Forms, certificates, and stored data belong in that inventory, too. Email hosting does not move automatically; we preserve the relevant records when your mailboxes stay with their current provider during the migration.

We prepare the website in its new environment and check important pages and features. Then we plan the switch, including a rollback option. If your site stores orders or inquiries in a database, we agree on how changes made during migration will be carried over before retiring the old environment.

Your web server's location does not tell you where all website data ends up. A form may store inquiries with another service, while backups and logs sit somewhere else. We map those locations before configuring hosting. We separate public pages and images from information that visitors entrust to your business. Not every part of the website holds the same kind of data.

If you require storage in a particular region, we check the available settings and documentation from the providers involved. We explain what you can choose and what the platform controls, including any processing outside the selected storage region. A European server alone does not prove that your entire website meets privacy requirements. This overview gives you specific technical choices and agreements to review.

You get a defined publishing process so an incomplete version does not accidentally replace the public website. We keep preview and production separate and check how an approved change goes live. For a Storyblok website, for example, we test whether publishing in the editor updates the website. We also check that drafts stay off the public pages until they are approved.

We document who has access, which settings belong to the hosting environment, and how to restore a previous site version. A successful deployment does not prove every form works. After a release, we also check the features visitors need, within the scope we agree with you beforehand.

Managed hosting establishes where we investigate when a site becomes slow or unavailable. We check availability, HTTPS, and the services a page needs. Is the problem in the hosting, an external integration, or the website code? A faster server will not fix an unnecessarily large image. We identify the cause before changing the infrastructure rather than treating every slowdown the same way.

For static files, a CDN can help serve visitors in different regions. Dynamic features have separate limits, such as concurrent requests. We discuss which signals we monitor and how alerts are handled. Response times and support are defined in the management agreement; we do not promise unlimited team availability.

A backup is useful only when you know what it can restore. We distinguish website code, uploaded files, CMS content, and databases. Version control preserves code changes, but it does not replace backups of orders or content managed elsewhere. For each part, we agree on what is stored, how long it remains available, and who can access the recovery process.

We also define how to verify recovery: does the website start, are recent records present, and do forms reach the right destination? Restoring older data can lose newer changes, so it needs a different decision from restoring a code version. Where needed, we coordinate this with website maintenance and whoever manages your CMS.

A static marketing website has different hosting needs from an online store or web app that processes data for each visitor. We review traffic, forms, the CMS, data, visitor regions, and recovery requirements. A site made mostly of fixed pages can run on a platform with a CDN. Seven of the twelve sites in our case studies, including Verhuurwinkel and ZET, run on Vercel, mostly as static pages. A traditional CMS also needs database care, updates, and security management for its server software.

Separate features matter, too. A fast static page might still rely on an external form service. We identify those dependencies and assess whether your current hosting can stay. You get a setup that fits the actual website, with explicit responsibilities for its different parts. If you also need a new site, our website development work plans hosting from the start.
