Powerful WordPress Tools
Built Into Every Plan
Everything you need to deploy, manage, and optimise WordPress sites without touching a command line.
Deploy and Manage WordPress
Without the Command Line
Everything you need to ship a WordPress site, from a fresh install to a full agency portfolio, available as one-click actions in your dedicated server management panel.
WordPress deployment with Blueprint
Spin up a new WordPress site with sensible defaults: hardened wp-config, LiteSpeed Cache, Redis, and your preferred PHP version, all preconfigured.
Auto-login from the panel
Jump into wp-admin for any site in your portfolio with a single click. No password manager, no copy-paste.
File Manager
Browse, upload, edit, and download files directly from your browser. Full read/write access without an SFTP client.
Staging environments
Clone any production site into a password-protected staging environment, push changes back when you are ready.
Site cloning
Duplicate a site to a new domain with one click. Perfect for templated client work or multi-region deployments.
WordPress Toolkit
Bulk updates, plugin and theme management, site clones, and backups across your full portfolio from a single dashboard.
Tuned for WordPress, Out of the Box
Speed is a choice we made for you. Every layer of the stack, from the web server to the cache to the CDN, is configured for fast WordPress before you sign up.
OpenLiteSpeed
High-performance web server, up to 3x faster than Apache, with native WordPress caching via LiteSpeed Cache.
Redis object cache
Persistent object cache reduces database load and speeds up repeat visits dramatically.
PHP version switching
Run 7.4, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, or 8.4 per site. Switch with one click, no downtime.
Cloudflare integration
Optional Cloudflare front-end for global edge caching, image optimisation, and DDoS protection at the edge.
Built for Developers Too
If you want full server access, you have it. SSH, Git, WP-CLI, and Composer, all enabled and ready.
SSH and SFTP
Full SSH access per server, SFTP credentials per system user. No shared SSH keys, no shared shells.
WP-CLI preinstalled
Manage plugins, themes, users, and database from the terminal. WP-CLI 2.10+ on every server.
GitHub Integration
Configure your GitHub OAuth settings, connect repos, and deploy on push. Per-branch staging supported.
Bitbucket Integration
Configure your Bitbucket OAuth settings to deploy from Atlassian-hosted repos with the same workflow.
GitLab Integration
Configure your GitLab OAuth settings for self-hosted or gitlab.com pipelines, with deploy hooks.
Composer support
Run composer install or update directly on the server, or via Git deploy hooks. Lock files honoured.
Direct database access
MySQL command line, phpMyAdmin, and remote access toggles. Per-site database users with scoped permissions.
Cron management
Set, edit, and view scheduled tasks from the panel. WordPress cron offloaded to system cron by default.
WordPress Hardened by Default
The boring, important defaults that other hosts make you configure yourself, on by default on every Forge Web Services site.
xmlrpc.php blocked
The most-abused WordPress endpoint is blocked by default. Allow it back per-site with one click if Jetpack or similar needs it.
PHP execution blocked in /uploads
Even if an attacker manages to drop a file into the media library, it cannot execute. A baseline that should be standard, but rarely is.
Core file verification
WordPress core files are checked daily against the official upstream. Tampering triggers an alert and a quarantine.
Backup to Anywhere You Already Trust
Beyond the daily off-site backups we keep, you can push your own backups to the cloud storage provider you already use. Click any integration to configure it from your panel.
