Brilliant support — I have been very impressed by service provided by the Wordpress Hosting technical support team. I am migrating a Joomla-based website from anther hosting service to Wordpress and encountered a transfer issue. I did not have great hopes of getting much help from the online chat in the evening but was very pleased by the immediate response and help. After a few interactions the problem was sorted and I can continue with the migration. It's early days but so far I am very happy.

Switching website hosting from elsewhere — The switch including moving website, the support along the way and after testing the DNS changes were very smooth. The support staff were helpful and patient when waiting for information from me to complete the transfer. The site is running as well as in my previous host at a great value price.

Painless Migration — My hosting service for my travel blog was bought by one of the larger hosting companies and their prices kept going up. I tried WordpressUK, tempted by their sensible up-front pricing, especially as they include SSL and free AI migration. I have no technical skills, and couldn’t believe how easy and painless the migration was. The couple of minor issues were sorted quickly and efficiently with great patience for my technical ignorance! Would definitely recommend.
