Web Hosting & Support FAQ’s
Do I have to use Pixel Fish for my Hosting?
Whilst all of our clients benefit significantly from our Hosting, Support & Maintenance plans, if you would like to self-manage your WordPress web hosting & maintenance, you are more than welcome to.
If you choose to self-manage on an external website hosting provider and need us to perform the migration, a fee of $660 incl GST will be levied. Pixel Fish requires 30 days’ notice to perform the migration.
Please note if you are self-managing your website hosting, you will need to purchase your own relevant third party licences, perform your own regular backups and do regular updates to ensure your website continues to work seamlessly.

If you are using Pixel Fish for your Website Hosting, Maintenance and Support, you can pay via monthly invoice or get set up for a monthly deduction that will come out of your chosen bank account or credit card.
Do you provide Shared Web Hosting, Dedicated Server Hosting or VPS Hosting?
No. We have transitioned all of our web hosting away from Shared Web Hosting, VPS and Dedicated Hosting Servers to Cloud Based Hosting, which we find far superior in speed, security and reliability. Shared Hosting (Where multiple sites are hosted on the same server) over the years we found to be getting slower and more troublesome as providers had multiple websites on their shared hosting server. We also found that a Virtual private server solution did not suit our clients needs.
