5 Reasons cheap WordPress hosting is costing you more | Reversed Out
- 1. 5 Reasons cheap WordPress hosting is costing you more | Reversed Out
- 2. The cost of cheap WordPress hosting goes far beyond the monthly price. You’ve seen the ads—“Web hosting for just $5/month!”—but what are you actually giving up? It sounds like a no-brainer—until your website slows down, gets hacked, or vanishes from Google search results. Suddenly, that cheap hosting deal becomes a liability. At Reversed Out Creative, we’ve migrated countless businesses away from cut-rate hosting providers like GoDaddy, Bluehost, and HostGator after they discovered just how costly “cheap” can be. Most had no idea what they were missing until their website broke, or worse—stopped converting altogether. This post breaks down exactly what you’re not getting with cheap WordPress hosting, and why making the switch to our $300/month all-in-one hosting + support plan may be the smartest investment in your digital presence. Cost of cheap WordPress hosting: what you’re not getting
- 3. 1. Speed optimization: shared servers are slowing you down Most cheap WordPress hosting companies run your site on a shared server, which means your site is sitting on the same machine as hundreds (sometimes thousands) of other websites. If one of those sites has a traffic spike or a poorly coded plugin, your performance suffers. This leads to slow load times, server timeouts, and a poor user experience. Page speed matters. Google’s Core Web Vitals make site performance a ranking factor, and users expect fast load times. According to Google, 53% of mobile users abandon a site that takes longer than 3 seconds to load 【 source†Google Think Insights 】 . Our solution: We host your site on enterprise-grade WP Engine infrastructure with CDN, caching, and advanced server tuning. Your site gets its own optimized slice of server resources — never shared with unknown neighbors.
- 4. 2. Plugin & WordPress updates: “set and forget” isn’t safe Cheap WordPress Hosting rarely maintains your WordPress install beyond offering one-click updates. If your theme or plugins are out of sync, your site can break. Worse, outdated plugins are one of the most common attack vectors for WordPress-based sites. One of our clients came to us after discovering their contact form hadn’t worked in three months—a plugin update had failed, but no one noticed because the host didn’t test anything. Our solution: We use WP Engine’s Smart Plugin Manager with visual regression testing. Updates are applied in a staging environment first. We only push them live if nothing breaks. That’s peace of mind you won’t get for $5/month.
- 5. 3. Security & backups: your safety net is missing Cheap WordPress Hosting often includes basic SSL and “malware scans,” but that’s it. If your site is hacked or corrupted, you’ll be lucky if your host even has a backup—and you’ll likely wait days for support.
- 6. Our solution: We include: • Daily backups with instant restores • Web application firewall (WAF) • Real-time threat detection • DDoS protection and CDN-based security Your site is actively monitored, and if something ever does go wrong, we can restore it instantly. 4. SEO & ADA compliance: invisible costs of inaction Google doesn’t just look at keywords—it looks at technical SEO, site speed, mobile responsiveness, and accessibility. If your host is dragging down load times, breaking plugins, or leaving your site inaccessible to disabled users, your rankings will suffer. And legally? ADA lawsuits over inaccessible websites are on the rise—more than 4,000 were filed in 2023 alone.
- 7. Our solution: With every migration, we perform a full: • On-page SEO audit • ADA compliance review • Site structure optimization (URLs, headings, internal links, image alt text) at a discounted rate • Speed + mobile UX fixes at a discounted rate We don’t just host your site—we make it better. 5. Strategic partnership: real people, real support Budget hosts offer ticket-based support queues or low-level call centers. They won’t guide your marketing, flag issues proactively, or offer strategy.
- 8. Our Solution: Every Reversed Out client gets: • 2 hours/month of expert dev & strategy time (rolls over to December) • Quarterly strategy calls to align on goals • Monthly web reports with SEO insights, traffic stats, and action items • Priority email/phone support with real people who know your site We become part of your extended digital team.

Who this is for • Mid-sized businesses with websites driving real revenue • Funded startups that need infrastructure but not a full in-house team • Marketing directors and CMOs who want a proactive digital partner • Agencies looking to white-label our team for their clients • Companies that have outgrown Wix, Squarespace, or GoDaddy Real impact: before & after switching to Reversed Out “We didn’t realize how slow our old host was until we moved. Our bounce rate dropped by 18%, and leads increased by 22% the first month. The peace-of-mind alone was worth the switch.” — Insurance client in Cincinnati These results are common when we move a client from bargain-bin hosting to our fully managed, optimized environment.
- 11. FAQ’s 1. Isn’t $300/month a lot for hosting? Not when you factor in the performance boost, dev time, SEO improvements, ADA compliance, and actual support. You’d spend more piecing this together yourself—and you’d still have to manage it. 2. Can you migrate my site for free? Yes. We handle the full migration, staging setup, and go-live with zero downtime. 3. What happens if I want to cancel? No contracts, no lock-in. But most clients don’t leave because they finally have a digital partner they trust.
- 12. What’s Your Website Really Worth? If your website brings in leads, sells products, or builds credibility—why risk it on $5/month hosting that does nothing beyond keeping it online? With Reversed Out Creative, you get: • Enterprise-grade hosting • Real SEO and ADA support • Strategic dev time • Peace of mind Move once. Fix everything. Stay ahead.
