Hosting and updates

Every website or system runs on a server somewhere, and that server costs money every month for as long as it runs. Doktahoo moves it to hosting that suits its size and keeps a private test copy where changes are tried first. Updates are checked automatically and go live with one button, which anyone on your team can press.

What is included

  • A review of your current hosting against how the system is really used
  • A move away from old or expensive hosting, with a way back if anything goes wrong
  • Updates that are checked automatically before they go live
  • A private test copy of every project, kept separate from the live one
  • The server setup written down as files, so it can be rebuilt if it is ever lost
  • Alerts when the site goes down, and a monthly look at the hosting bill

A good fit when

  • Only one person knows how to update the website, and it takes them a free afternoon
  • Your hosting bill keeps growing and nobody can explain why
  • Changes are tried on the live site because there is no test copy

Have work that needs a developer?

Send it as it is: a rough idea, a system that half works, or a deadline with nothing built yet. You will get a plain answer on whether Doktahoo is the right developer for it.
