OK, one site has really outgrown my old reseller account. I am not into managing a server or anything - but here's what I need.

1. Secure host - This site has been a target, and though I have always managed to get past it, and done the best practices I know of to protect it - I'm sick of it. Something isn't kosher. I am suspecting an inside job.

2. It's a big website, but it runs on wordpress - so I'd love an easy transition - maybe even the new host will help me move it seamlessly. I just don't want to spend days getting it done.

3. I am willing to pay a reasonable amount for a secure new host and easy move.

4. I have a small weekly mailing that goes out - a couple thousand subscribers - that goes out once a week. It isn't huge, but some hosts do not even let you mail that much at a time.

Suggestions?
 


Hi,

I don't have any experience with Secure Hosts, so I don't have any personal recommendations, but I just did a basic search on Google for "secure web hosting" and there seems to be a lot of companies offering this. Most (if not all) hosting companies will offer to move your sites from your old host to them... They take care of all the work... Just make sure you have backups in case on the rare chance something goes wrong.

When you say you suspect it to be an inside job... I guess you have employees or something? Isn't there a way to track who has access your servers by IP address and then see if you can pinpoint when these attacks have happened, and then go from there?

Either that, or depending on the number of employees you have, it may be time to clean house... I hate having to tell people they've lost their job, but when it boils down to your site (your livelihood) then you have to do anything necessary to protect it.

Hope that helps, sorry I couldn't provide an exact hosting provider recommendation.
