Common wpSites questions answered.
What is a managed website?
In a managed website environment, developers address the technical aspects of your website for you. This frees you up to focus on your content.
How do I manage my WordPress site?
Managing content means logging in with your username (account), then adding content to pages and publishing those pages. In wpSites, you have access to a variety of pre-installed and largely pre-configured, high-end plugins as well as standard website tools.
Can I cancel my managed website account at any time?
Yes. Both our Forever Free and Upgrade subscriptions are provided on an annual basis. You can request deletion of your account and website(s) via support ticket, or delete your site yourself from the Tools menu, or choose not to renew a paid account.
What happens if I delete my website?
Users may delete their site at any time. This is not recoverable. Additionally, you may ask us to remove your account and personal information from our systems via the Support Ticket form located on your WordPress Dashboard (when logged in).
Is it easy to change managed website plans?
Yes. To Upgrade, complete the Upgrade request and pay the annual fee. Support will then work with you to connect your custom domain prior to activating the advanced tools.
To downgrade to the Forever Free plan, contact support and alert us to turn off the auto-renew. You may continue to use the paid plan until the term ends.
Users are never required to upgrade from Forever Free. Upgrades are most commonly requested when a user wishes to add a Custom Domain and access more advanced tools.
What happens if I choose not to renew?
Applies to Upgrade subscriptions only. Contact support a few days before your renewal date and we’ll disable the auto-renew. Upon canceling your Upgrade subscription, support reverts your site back to the Forever Free subscription, and Upgrade-specific subscription features are disabled. Your content is not affected.
Can I manage more than one website?
Yes. You are issued an account when signing up. A website is automatically created on a subdomain at wpsites.site. Upgrade to add your own domain (tip: when you wish to launch). You may request the creation of additional websites and access them via the same account login, either by signing up again (using the same username/email combination) or submitting a request via a support ticket available on your WordPress dashboard.
Do I need to choose my website plan first?
No you do not. Upon signing up, all sites are set as Forever Free. Upgrade to the business plan when and if you want to.
Can I get a refund?
No. The Upgrade plan is sold as an annual recurring service. You may cancel the auto-renew at least one week prior to the renewal event. If you do not need to upgrade, you are welcome to use the Forever Free plan.
Do I need a credit card to sign up?
No credit card is required to sign up. If you choose to upgrade to our business subscription, you’ll pay $125 USD annually using a credit card.
Can I see a demo?
You are looking at one. Our entire website is built inside of wpSites, just as yours would be. Sign up for free and take your own site for a test drive.
Are wpSites managed websites safe and secure?
Yes. Our servers run data protection measures for your peace of mind. Ours, too.
Affiliate Disclosure
Some “upgradable” links contain affiliate attribution codes. Affiliate earnings help us offset the cost of providing free services to countless small businesses, non-profits, and students. It’s one way we give them a fighting chance while avoiding displaying ads within our service. We hope you’ll join us in helping as many people as possible by using our affiliate links when upgrading these incredible tools.
Do I need to get hosting?
You do not need ‘website’ hosting as we provide that on wpSites. Most clients keep their email hosted with Gmail or MS365. In rare occasions we may host email, but it is not officially offered.
Do I need to get an SSL certificate?
You do not need to get an SSL certificate for your website on wpSites as we provide SSL with your account.
Is a managed website the same as hosting?
Managed means we host your website. You’ll need to keep your domain, email, and DNS hosting with your providers such as Google or Microsoft, GoDaddy, etc. We are not a registrar, so be sure to maintain/renew your domain at your registrar.
Does wpSites provide Email and DNS hosting?
We offer these types of services via Managed VPS services. This is not included in wpSites managed website services. Discuss this with support if you require more customized website services.
Integrations Upgrades and Services
Connect your HubSpot account to your Site yourself. Support can activate WPRocket, Sitekit by Google, GravityForms, Ecwid/Woo (online stores), and more, as required once you’ve upgraded. 3rd party tool upgrades may contain affiliate links that help support Forever Free users.
Does wpSites provide website hosting?
An account with a website(s) on wpSites is hosted by us. We do not host email or other services.
Can I register or buy a domain through wpSites?
No. We are not a registrar. We recommend purchasing a domain from a reputable registrar. (Tip: we do not recommend purchasing web hosting at a registrar as you’ll get web hosting service though us. However, you will need DNS hosting.)
I’d like to install a different plugin or theme. Can I?
No. This is core to our “managed” philosophy. To do our best to ensure your websites are stable, don’t get hacked, and there are no software conflicts that cause unexpected issues. Plugins and themes are typically at the centre of conflicts. By pre-selecting, installing, and largely pre-configuring best-in-class plugins and a pro-level theme, we can provide essential functionality, performance, and no-code design tools for your website. The peace of mind that comes with this approach to WordPress is ground-breaking.
Will my Site be on wpSites.ca
No. It’ll be on wpsites.site (wpsites.ca is our marketing front end)
What Online Store Options Can I Use?
We support WooCommerce (free to use, paid upgrades, will get the job done) and Ecwid (paid subscriptions, robust features, easy to use) (formerly SiteShop) solutions. Users connect their accounts, manage products, and connect a payment gateway to begin selling.
Both free and paid managed website plans feature responsive design. Upgrade plans permit connecting a custom domain. Tip: start with a Free site, then Upgrade when you are ready to launch.
