Hi. Has anybody here used or looked into https://www.wphost.nz/ previously / currently?

Any feedback or comments you are willing to share? Publicly or privately?

I like what they are offering at the price they are asking. What's offputting is they mention their NZBN multiple times, yet there is no current or historic record on the Companies Register that I can find. Their T&C's also don't mention a jurisdiction area that they operate under.

I'm searching for an interim hosting provider because I ran out of time wanting to do things my way.

Thx Dan, I already know about Prodigi & you've got an email.

They're owned/run by this lot About Us - Cheeky Monkey Hosting

I'd say WPHOST is held with Umbrellar as Cheeky Monkey's DC is with them.

However - Cheeky Monkey originally started as an investment company looking at their Facebook reviews. There are a couple of Cheeky Monkey companies registered as investment/housing businesses.

I'd avoid myself.

Go with Dan, he'll look after you - I've been using his services for quite a while now and happy :)

Happy to help here at WP Charged, if you need WordPress support and wanted to trial out an NZ based WordPress host.

Performance, security and even PHP errors are managed here to keep the website running as smooth as possible, so it would be pretty much set and forget except the odd plugin and theme update.

Generally if a host offers email or uses plesk/cpanel they won't be truly focused on managed WordPress hosting, so the may not be able to offer the same level of WordPress support for troubleshooting and performance if needed.
