Servers we run ourselves
No reseller in the middle: we manage the servers, their security updates and the uptime monitoring.
Hosting · Email · Backups · Care
Hosting with a person on the other end.
Your site lives on servers we run and monitor ourselves, with daily backups, SSL, business email and updates. More than 18 sites are under our care, and when something matters you call the person who built yours.
DMS.S2 — What's included
What our care includes.
Daily backups
Files and databases backed up every day, so a bad update or a hacked plugin is a restore, not a rebuild.
SSL and business email
An SSL certificate set up on every site and email accounts on your own domain, from 5 mailboxes on the standard plan.
Your domain in one place
We register and renew your domain with the hosting, so it never lapses by accident.
WordPress maintenance
Plugin, theme and core updates with a test purchase after every update, verified backups and downtime monitoring.
Phone, WhatsApp and portal
Call (617) 275-3254, message us on WhatsApp or open a ticket in the client portal, where your invoices and renewals live too.

DMS.S4 — How we work
Every job starts on the drafting table.
Four steps, no shortcuts, and you approve the plan before any code.
01 / 04
Draft
Goals, sitemap, copy, and a design system on paper before a single line of code. You see the plan and approve it — like a blueprint.
02 / 04
Build
Hand-written code, reviewed and tested until it's fast on a job-site phone with two bars of signal.
03 / 04
Launch
DNS, SSL, analytics, and search indexing handled end to end. You get a checklist, not a surprise.
04 / 04
Care
We host, monitor, back up, and update — for years. When you call, the person who built your site picks up.

DMS.S6 — Questions
What people ask before a quote.
Can you move my site from another host?
Yes. We move the files, databases and mailboxes, check the site on our servers and only then switch the domain over.
Do you host WordPress?
Yes, alongside hand-coded sites. WordPress sites can add our maintenance plan, with updates tested by a purchase after every run.
What happens if my site goes down?
Our monitoring alerts us and we restore from the daily backup when needed. You can reach us by phone, WhatsApp or a support ticket in the client portal.
Is email included?
Yes. Hosting plans include email accounts on your domain, and we also offer Google Workspace and professional email if you prefer.
Where do I pay invoices?
In the client portal at portal.designmastersolutions.com, where you also see renewals and open support tickets.
