Hosting and website support

What hosting and support cover

Hosting and CMS are $75 per month. That covers keeping your site online and the Sanity CMS you use to edit it. We also help with domains and DNS, and you get a real person to contact when something is wrong.

Our hosting page explains how our approach compares to typical WordPress hosting. Many WordPress hosts leave the plug-in updates to you. Plug-ins picked out of convenience can crash or slow a site. We build on a different stack, so you do not have to worry about random plug-in crashes or backup times.

We are also a small company, and we are proud of each site we build. When you call, you reach real people who know you and your site. You do not get a call center that has never seen your pages. Support is part of the relationship, not an upsell.

Cloud-based hosting

Your site is served from cloud infrastructure that we manage. You do not buy servers or learn a dashboard. Cloud-based hosting is built so pages keep loading when traffic goes up or down, and the same team that built the site looks after it.

Cloud hosting also saves you from owning the technical side. You do not have to track renewals, chase a login, or figure out why a page stopped loading. We handle it, and we help with domains and DNS so your web address points to the right place.

Speed matters here. Visitors leave slow pages, and Google measures load speed as part of its page experience signals. Our performance optimization work and our hosting go hand in hand.

SSL certification

SSL is the padlock in the browser. It means your site loads over HTTPS and anything a visitor types into a form is encrypted. SSL certification is set up and renewed for you.

We also add redirects from HTTP to HTTPS and check for mixed content at launch. If your site shows a security warning today, this is the fix. It also supports the SEO/AEO basics we build into every site, since browsers warn visitors away from sites without it.

Technical support

Sometimes a form stops sending, a page breaks, or a link goes dead. Technical support means you reach the team that built the site, not a stranger who has never seen it.

• Fixes for broken pages, forms, and links.
• Help with CMS questions, so you can update the site yourself.
• Help with forms, analytics, and booking tools.
• Clear answers in plain language.

Hosting terms in plain words

A few terms come up a lot. Here is what they mean.

• Hosting: the service that keeps your website online so people can open it any time.
• CMS: the editor you use to change text, photos, and projects on your site. We use Sanity.
• Domain: your web address, like yourbusiness.com.
• DNS: the settings that point your domain to your website. We help with these so nothing gets lost when a site moves.
• SSL: the padlock that shows your site is secure.

What to do when something breaks

Call or send a message through the contact page. We will tell you whether it is a quick fix or a small project before any work starts. No surprise bills, and no jargon.

Not every problem is a break. Sometimes you just want to change a phone number, add a project, or ask how the CMS works. That is what support is for too. We would rather answer a small question today than fix a bigger problem later.

How it ties to your website

Hosting and support work best when they sit with the people who built the site. If you are planning a new site, start with our website design services. If your current site is slow, dated, or hard to manage, a website redesign can move it onto a stack we host and support.

We build on Next.js with Sanity. Pages load quickly, search engines and AI search can read them, and routine updates do not need a developer. You can see sites we have built in our portfolio.

Fierce Island is a boutique team in Boise, run by Jared and Rachelle Nelson. There are no account managers and no outsourcing. The people who build your site are the people who host and support it.

Who it is for and how to start

Hosting and support are open to every industry. If you want hosting handled without managing servers, and a team that answers when something needs attention, this is for you. Pricing is simple: hosting and CMS are $75 per month.

If you already have a site, tell us where it lives and what is bothering you. If you do not have one yet, we can build it and host it from day one. Either way, there is one team to call.
