WordPress Hosting Fast, Secure and Scalable Solutions

An SSL certificate increases the security of your WordPress site, protects users' information and provides an advantage in Google rankings.

A content delivery network (CDN) is a geographically distributed group of servers that speeds up the delivery of web content by bringing it closer to where users are located. Data centers around the world use caching, a process that temporarily stores copies of files, so you can access internet content faster through a server near you.

CDNs cache content like web pages, images, and video on proxy servers physically closer to where you are. This allows you to watch movies, download software, or shop without having to wait for content to load. CDNs can also provide greater protection against security concerns like distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks on websites.

A web application firewall (WAF) protects web applications from various application layer attacks such as cross-site scripting (XSS), SQL injection, and cookie poisoning, among others. Attacks on applications are a leading cause of breaches; they are the gateway to your valuable data. With the right WAF, we can block a range of attacks aimed at compromising your systems and exfiltrating that data.

Railgun speeds up the connection between each Cloudflare data center and an origin server, ensuring that requests that cannot be served from the Cloudflare cache are still served very quickly.

Approximately 2/3 of requests to sites on Cloudflare are served directly from cache from the data center physically closest to the person browsing the web. Railgun uses a set of techniques to speed up web pages that cannot be cached in advance, so web pages are delivered quickly even when the origin server needs to be consulted.

Polish is a one-click image optimization product that automatically optimizes images on your site. It removes metadata from images and reduces image size through lossy or lossless compression to speed up image download speed.

When an image is fetched from your origin, our systems automatically optimize it in Hostragons' cache. Subsequent requests for the same image will receive the smaller, faster, optimized version of the image, increasing your website's speed.

• Automatically resizing images using Javascript (analyzing visitor connection and device type)
• Virtualizing images so that visitors with poor connections get a smaller version at a lower resolution until they access a higher bandwidth connection
• Facilitating visual requests so that visitors can see optimized visuals immediately
• Acts as a lazy loader by converting all images to load on demand

Mirage, like Rocket Loader, is a feature applied to the customer's website via client-side javascript. It means we modify the HTML response and insert the javascript code for the browser to execute; this is how the optimization is applied.

Our unmetered, always-on DDoS protection for your web assets (HTTP/HTTPs) is powered by intelligence leveraged from Hostragons' always-learning global network. Hostragons DDoS protection works in conjunction with our cloud web application firewall (WAF), Bot Management and other L3/4 security services to protect assets against all types of cyber threats.

Hostragons Spectrum is a reverse proxy service that provides DDoS protection for FTP, SSH, VoIP, gaming, or any application running over the TCP/UDP protocol. Spectrum comes with built-in load balancing and traffic acceleration for L4 traffic.

Unexpected data loss affects all types of businesses and can happen at any time. Data backup is a minimum requirement for all businesses. For this reason, at Hostragons, we back up all sites in our company weekly. However, this may not always be a savior, and Hostragons is not responsible for backups. Every customer is responsible for their own backup.

An Inode is a single file on the server. It can be any file on your server, including system files, emails, websites, and databases. INODE is automatically counted, and the results are displayed in the client area or cPanel.

Generally, these limits are more than sufficient for most websites. Most customers will not notice this limit because it is well below what the website needs; for example, default WordPress uses less than 1700 INODEs.

I/O (Input/Output) limit refers to the read and write speed your site can perform on the server's disk per second. This limit is applied to ensure fair and stable performance for all customers on the same server and is more than sufficient for most WordPress sites.
