About

About WPShift: WordPress server management software

WPShift is software that sets up a WordPress server in your own cloud account and manages the sites, domains, mailboxes, backups and monitoring on it. It is a control plane and not a host: the server is created in your account at DigitalOcean, Hetzner, Linode, AWS, Google Cloud or Vultr.

Free plan available. Paid plans include a 7-day trial. Server costs are separate.

The product

Servers at several providers, in one list

You connect the cloud account and choose the server. WPShift installs Nginx, PHP, MariaDB and Redis, applies the firewall and access settings, and gives you a dashboard for what comes after: sites, caching, backups, certificates, domains and mailboxes.

Servers at different cloud providers in one list.

The model

Why the server stays in your account

You should be able to choose where your sites run and see what the infrastructure costs.

With your own cloud account connected, your provider invoices the server directly and WPShift adds nothing to that bill. If you stop using WPShift, the server stays in your account and keeps running. DNS, mailboxes, backups and monitoring stop with the subscription.

The work

What the product is, and what it leaves alone

WPShift manages servers and the WordPress sites on them. It is not a CDN, a page builder or an analytics platform.

Most of our time goes into three things: that a failed operation names the step and shows what the server reported, that a backup nobody has tested yet still restores, and that the boundaries between the sites on one server are real.
