Managed hosting · WordPress hosting · Business servers
Good web hosting is the invisible foundation of every website: if the server is slow or unprotected, not even the best design can save the visitor's experience. At AMS.AL we have provided hosting for businesses since 2015, on servers configured for speed, with an SSL certificate on every domain, daily backups and a team that knows your website from the inside. We do not simply sell you disk space; we make sure your site opens quickly, stays protected and always has someone who answers when you need help.

Google's 'good' threshold for loading the main content
Many businesses choose their web hosting by the cheapest offer they can find online, and only notice the mistake when the site goes down in the middle of a campaign or an outdated plugin opens the door to an attack. Shared hosting with thousands of sites on one server, no reliable backups and support that replies after a few days looks like a bargain only until the first day something goes wrong.
Professional web hosting is built differently. The server is configured for the kind of site it runs, resources are not shared without limit with unknown neighbours, updates follow a plan, and backups are tested so they can actually be restored. Above all, there is a team watching the site and stepping in before your customer notices a problem.
The table below compares typical budget web hosting with the way we work at AMS.AL. For a personal blog the simplest plan may be enough; for a business that receives enquiries and orders online, the difference shows every single day.
| Criterion | Typical budget hosting | Web hosting by AMS.AL |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | An overloaded server packed with sites, no caching set up and old PHP versions. | A server configured for your site, caching on several levels, compression and current PHP versions. |
| Security | Basic protection, a generic firewall and no regular checks for malicious code. | A web application firewall, regular malware scans, isolated accounts and a protected admin area. |
| Backups | Infrequent copies, often on the same server, with no proof they can be restored. | Daily backups away from the main server, with tested restores and several days of history. |
| Monitoring | Problems are discovered when a customer complains or sales drop. | Continuous monitoring of uptime, the SSL certificate and disk space, with automatic alerts. |
| Support | A ticket queue, generic answers and no knowledge of your website. | A team that knows your website, answers in plain language and works directly on the server when needed. |
| Email and DNS | Email that often lands in spam and DNS records left half finished. | Email on your own domain, SPF, DKIM and DMARC configured, and clean, documented DNS. |
Think of web hosting as the premises your business works from. Cheap premises on an unlit street may save a little money, but customers cannot find their way in. In the same way, a website that opens slowly loses visitors before they read your offer, and Google takes speed into account when it decides whom to show first. That is why good web hosting is not measured in gigabytes, but in how well it serves your website every day.
When we have built your website, the hosting and the code speak the same language. If you are planning a new site, our web development service prepares it from the start for the server it will live on.
Every website has different needs. A brochure site with a few thousand monthly visits does not need the same resources as an online store during its sales season. So we do not offer one plan for everyone; we choose with you the web hosting that fits your traffic, your technology and your plans for growth.
Most of the websites we host are built with WordPress, so our servers are tuned for it: current PHP versions, page and object caching, image compression and rules that block the well-known attempts to break into the admin area.
For WooCommerce stores we make sure the cart and checkout are never cached, that orders are recorded correctly and that the database stays fast even when the catalogue grows to thousands of products.
Best for: Business websites, blogs and online stores built with WordPress or WooCommerce.
For brochure sites, company websites and small web applications we offer web hosting with reserved resources, so your site never slows down because a neighbour on the server is getting a lot of traffic.
Every account has its own SSL certificate, its own control panel and its own backups, so a problem on another website never touches yours.
Best for: Studios, professional offices and companies that want a stable website without dealing with servers.
When a website has heavy traffic, demanding processes or several applications working together, a dedicated virtual server gives control and resources that shared hosting cannot.
We manage the server for you: the operating system, security updates, the firewall, monitoring and scaling when traffic grows. You run the business; we look after the infrastructure.
Best for: High-traffic online stores, platforms with user accounts and custom applications.
Web hosting is not only about the website. An address such as info@yourbusiness.com builds trust, but only if messages reach the inbox rather than spam. We set up email on your own domain together with the records that authenticate it.
We also manage your domain's DNS zone, so the website, email and other services point to the right place and every change happens without interruption. If you do not have a domain yet, we start with domain registration in your own name.
Best for: Any business that wants reliable email and a well-managed domain.
Moving to a new server worries many businesses, because they have heard of websites that went down for days or of email that disappeared. We split the migration into clear steps, test the site before any traffic is pointed at it and make the switch at the hour when visitors are fewest.
We start by looking at what you have today: the technology behind the site, the size of its files and database, monthly traffic, email accounts and DNS records. We also measure current speed, so we have a baseline to compare against after the move.
What you receive
Based on the review we propose the right solution: business hosting, WordPress hosting or a managed VPS. We explain why, what resources it includes and how it scales if traffic grows.
What you receive
We prepare the account or server: the right PHP version, the database, caching, compression, the SSL certificate, the firewall and automatic backups. Every setting is documented.
What you receive
We copy the website, the database and the mailboxes to the new server and test the site on a temporary address: forms, payments, accounts and links. Only when everything works do we change the DNS.
We make the switch during low-traffic hours and follow it until it has propagated everywhere, so no email or order is lost during the move.
What you receive
After the move the site joins our monitoring: uptime, the SSL certificate, disk space and backups are checked automatically. When something goes wrong, we are alerted before you are.
What you receive
Web hosting looks like a technical matter someone else sorts out, but a few basic decisions directly affect the speed, the security and the ranking of your website. These are the points we explain to every client before they choose.
The time the server needs to send the first byte (TTFB) is the first part of every page load. If the server is slow, no amount of image optimisation fully makes up for it. Professional web hosting shortens that time with caching, a well-configured database and a server location close to your visitors.
Google considers a Largest Contentful Paint of 2.5 seconds or less to be 'good'. Reaching it takes the server and the website working together:
Most websites that get attacked are not chosen targets; they are sites with an outdated plugin that an automated bot happens to find. That is why web hosting security is not a switch you turn on once, but a routine: updates, scans, limits on login attempts and isolated accounts, so one compromised site cannot affect the others.
An SSL certificate and HTTPS are the minimum today. Browsers mark every site without them as 'not secure', and visitors leave before they fill in a form.
A backup stored on the same server as the website is lost together with it. We follow the well-known 3-2-1 principle: three copies of the data, in two different places, one of them away from the main server. And a backup is only worth something if it can be restored, so we test restores regularly.
If your website collects personal data from customers, such as names, email addresses or orders, the server's location and the way data is stored matter for compliance with the GDPR and with local data protection law. We tell you clearly where your data is and who has access to it.
Good web hosting should not be taken on trust; it should be measured. Every website we host has clear indicators that we track continuously and that you see in our reports.
Our monitoring checks the site from outside, just like a visitor, and from inside the server. That way we see not only whether the site is online, but how well it is performing.
We regularly send you a short report in plain language: how the site performed, whether there were interruptions and why, what was updated and what we recommend. When the site has GA4 and Search Console, we put traffic data next to server data, so you can see whether a rise in visits slowed the site down.
For updates to the site itself, content changes and regular plugin checks, our website maintenance service works from the same monitoring data.
The domain, the website and the data are yours. We give you access to the control panel, documentation of the configuration and, whenever you ask, a full copy of the site. We do not tie you to contracts that make leaving difficult.
To make the choice easier, we have grouped our solutions into three levels. Each level is adapted to your website, and moving from one to the next happens without rebuilding the site. Use the finder below to see which level is closest to your needs.
A secure base for new and smaller websites.
Best for: Brochure sites, professionals and businesses that have just started online.
More resources, speed and care for growing websites.
Best for: Business websites with steady traffic, active blogs and small online stores.
Dedicated resources and a team that runs the server for you.
Best for: High-traffic online stores, platforms and custom applications.
Choose what describes your website and we will show you the closest level. It is only a guide; the quote is prepared after a conversation.
Choose at least one option to see the recommendation.
We do not publish fixed prices, because the resources depend on your website and your traffic. For every request we prepare a free, no-obligation quote with the yearly costs clearly listed.
These are the questions businesses ask us most often before moving their hosting to us. If yours is not here, write to us and we will answer personally.
The difference is not the disk space but the way the server is run: how many sites share the same resources, how often backups are made and whether they are tested, who monitors the site and how quickly they step in when there is a problem.
With professional web hosting you get reserved resources, active protection and a team that knows your website, not a ticket queue with generic answers.
Yes. We copy the site to the new server, test it on a temporary address and change the DNS only when everything works. We make the switch during low-traffic hours.
While the DNS change propagates, which usually takes a few hours, both servers stay active, so neither visitors nor email are lost.
Yes. Every domain we host has an SSL certificate that renews automatically, and the site always opens over HTTPS. In special cases we can also install a certificate you have bought yourself.
Backups are made automatically every day and stored away from the main server, with several days of history. Before every major update we also make a manual copy.
If you need to go back, just write to us and we restore the whole site or only part of it, such as the database or a particular folder.
Monitoring and regular scans catch most problems early. If a site is compromised, we isolate it, clean it or restore it from a clean copy, and close the weakness that allowed the attack.
Afterwards we explain what happened and what we changed, so the same problem does not happen again.
Yes. For online stores we configure the server so the cart, checkout and customer accounts are never cached, orders are recorded correctly and the database stays fast.
For stores with heavy traffic or frequent campaigns we recommend a managed VPS, so resources are not shared with other websites.
Yes. We create mailboxes on your domain and configure SPF, DKIM and DMARC so your messages reach the inbox. If you already have email elsewhere, we move your messages without losing them.
You do. The domain is registered in your name, and we give you access to the control panel and the configuration documentation. If you ever decide to leave, we hand over a full copy of the site and the database.
Because we have provided hosting, domains, email, security and web development under one roof since late 2015. When a problem involves both the server and the website's code, you do not need to chase two suppliers blaming each other.
We speak openly about what we can and cannot promise, and we measure our work with clear indicators. You can read more about our story and the way we work on our About Us page.
Tell us where your website is hosted today, how many visitors it has and what worries you most: speed, security or support. We reply with a short review, a web hosting proposal and a free quote, with no obligation.
You can email us or call us directly. If you already have a website, send us the address and we will check it before we talk.
