Understanding Your Hosting with Kinsta
What Is Web Hosting?
Web hosting is the service that makes your website accessible on the internet. Your website’s files, images, database, and code all live on a server — a powerful computer that is always on and always connected. When someone types your web address, the hosting server delivers your site to their browser.
Why Kinsta?
InnerMedia hosts all client websites on Kinsta, a premium managed WordPress hosting platform built on Google Cloud Platform. Kinsta provides enterprise-grade infrastructure at a fraction of the cost of running your own servers.
- Google Cloud Platform — Your site runs on the same infrastructure as Google Search, YouTube, and Gmail
- Automatic scaling — If your site gets a sudden spike in traffic, resources scale automatically
- Global CDN — Content is served from the data centre closest to each visitor via Cloudflare’s network
- Free SSL — Every site gets a free SSL certificate, automatically renewed
- Daily backups — Automatic snapshots every day, retained for 30 days
- Staging environments — We can test changes on a copy of your site before pushing them live
Your Hosting Is Managed
As part of your InnerMedia package, we manage your hosting entirely. You do not need to worry about server configuration, software updates, security patches, or performance tuning. We handle all of this proactively.
You never need to log into Kinsta directly. InnerMedia manages your hosting, DNS, SSL, backups, and server-level performance. If you need anything hosting-related, just email us.
Uptime & Performance
Kinsta guarantees 99.9% uptime. In practice, downtime is extremely rare. The platform includes automatic monitoring, container-based isolation (your site is not affected by other sites on the server), and proactive resource management.
