WordPress hosting in a Belgian data center

WordPress runs on any hosting, but not every hosting is built for it. At WWW4 you get the things a WordPress site actually needs: the PHP version your theme and plugins require, object caching to relieve the database, and a daily backup for when an update goes wrong.

Everything runs in a Belgian data center, with support from the people who manage the infrastructure themselves.

What's included specifically for WordPress

Redis object caching

WordPress requests the same data from the database on every page view. Object caching keeps those answers in memory, noticeably relieving the database on busy sites.

Jaan Performance Engine

Our own WordPress plugin for speed, included with your hosting: images, lazy loading, caching and minification. No separate license; you download it and ask us for a key.

About the plugin and the download

One-click installation

Set up WordPress in a few clicks from the control panel, including the other common CMSs if you prefer those.

Both performance extras are included in the plan. How much faster your site gets depends entirely on your theme, plugins and content — we don't put a percentage on that.

You choose your own PHP version

This is the most underestimated cause of a broken WordPress site. An old theme or an unmaintained plugin breaks on a new PHP version; conversely, modern software refuses to run on an old one. At WWW4 you set the PHP version per site yourself and can switch back if an update disappoints.

The PHP memory limit also differs per plan — from 128 MB to 512 MB. Heavy page builders and WooCommerce shops with many products hit that limit sooner than a simple business site.

Plan SSD web space PHP memory limit Typical for
1 1.250 MB 128 MB Simple business site or blog
2 2.500 MB 256 MB Site with page builder and imagery
3 5.000 MB 512 MB Larger site or small webshop

When is shared hosting no longer enough?

For most WordPress sites, shared hosting is more than enough. If your site grows into a busy webshop, you need your own server software or want shell access, a managed VPS is the next step. You then move to your own environment without neighbors affecting your performance.

Frequently asked questions about WordPress hosting

Technically, WordPress runs on any hosting. The difference lies in what is ready by default: the PHP version you can choose yourself, object caching to relieve the database, a one-click installation and a daily backup for when an update goes wrong. At WWW4 all of that is included in the regular hosting package.
Yes, per site and adjustable at any time. That matters more than it seems: an old theme or an unmaintained plugin breaks on a new PHP version, while modern software requires a recent version. You can also switch back if an update disappoints.
WordPress requests the same data from the database again on every page view. Object caching keeps those answers in memory, which relieves the database. On a quiet site you will hardly notice it; on a busy site or a webshop it makes a noticeable difference.
That depends entirely on your theme, your plugins and your content, so we do not put a percentage on it. A site with a heavy page builder and thirty plugins has a very different profile from a simple company site. What we can say: the performance extras are included, you pay nothing extra for them.
For a company site or blog, the smallest package is sufficient. If you work with a page builder and a lot of imagery, choose the middle one; for a larger site or a small webshop, the largest. The difference lies in the SSD web space and the PHP memory limit — heavy page builders and WooCommerce shops hit that limit sooner.
Yes, you can create unlimited mailboxes and aliases on your domain. For large volumes of outgoing mail, for example newsletters or system mails from a webshop, an SMTP relay is the better route — that runs via our sister brand 2Mail.
We maintain the server side: the operating system, the web server and the PHP versions we offer. Your WordPress installation itself, your theme and your plugins remain your responsibility — your content lives in there too, and a blind automatic update can break a site. Do make sure you update regularly: outdated plugins are the most common cause of a hacked site.
Yes. All hosting runs in Belgian data centers, and support is based in Belgium too. For organizations that work with personal data, that is often a hard requirement.
Our own WordPress plugin for speed: it compresses images, loads them only when they come into view, caches pages and minifies files. The plugin comes free with every WWW4 plan; you download it on our site and request an API key from support.
Yes. Transferring your site and email is part of the service and does not appear as a separate line on your invoice. We first put the site on the new server, test it there, and only then change the DNS, so visitors notice nothing.
Yes, small and medium-sized webshops run fine on shared hosting; choose a plan with 256 or 512 MB PHP memory. If the catalogue or traffic grows, a managed VPS is the next step. What a webshop needs on top is set out on our WooCommerce page.
