WordPress hosting with security that is watched daily
Short answer: akthost WordPress hosting runs on cPanel with free SSL, isolated accounts, Imunify protection and daily security checks by our engineers. We move your existing site in free, and the price you see is the price you renew at.
Non-USD amounts are indicative, except hosting plans, which show real USD and NGN prices. Hosting plans are sold in USD and NGN only (GBP and CAD show USD). You're billed in your selected currency at checkout at the current rate.
The price you see is the price you renew at. No teaser rate that jumps next year, no surprise hike at renewal. What is shown here is what we bill, today and when you renew.

What secure WordPress hosting should include
Most WordPress hacks come in through an out-of-date plugin or a weak login, not through the server itself. Good hosting covers the server side so you only have to look after your own site. Here is what every akthost plan includes.
- Imunify security on the server, with daily security checks by our engineers.
- Isolated accounts. CloudLinux CageFS and LVE keep one account from reading or starving another.
- Free SSL on every plan, so your site loads over HTTPS.
- cPanel for files, databases, email and backups, with our guides for installing WordPress and other apps.
- Engineers on support. Real people reply to tickets.
Managed means we run the server, you run the site
Here is the honest split. We monitor, patch and check the servers. You keep control of WordPress itself: core, plugins, themes and users. If you would rather not do updates and backups yourself, our WordPress care service updates, backs up and checks your site for you.

Common questions
What makes WordPress hosting secure at akthost?
Every plan runs on cPanel with free SSL, accounts isolated from each other (CloudLinux CageFS and LVE), Imunify protection on the server, and daily security checks by our engineers.
Is this managed WordPress hosting?
The server side is managed by our engineers: monitoring, patching and daily checks. Updating WordPress core, plugins and themes inside your own site stays with you, unless you add our WordPress care service, which does it for you.
What happens if my WordPress site gets hacked?
Open a ticket and our engineers help. Our guide on what to do after a hack lists the steps in the right order. In October, when a WordPress exploit hit, we cleaned up and updated 36 WordPress sites on our servers the same day.
Can you move my existing WordPress site for free?
Yes. Our engineers move your site files, databases and email setup onto an akthost plan at no cost. Contact us with your domain and current host.
Do I get backups?
cPanel backups are free and we explain how to use them in our guide. CodeGuard automated backup is available as a paid add-on if you want daily off-server copies.
Which currencies can I pay in?
Prices show in your local currency where we offer it, and you can switch currency on the plans. The price you see is the price you renew at.
