What runs on it is your business. With managed hosting, someone takes care of your website&#8217;s operation. That makes a difference in five key areas.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Security updates:<\/strong> Your hosting partner continuously manages servers, PHP, and WordPress and immediately closes critical vulnerabilities. A classic provider applies server updates on their own schedule; WordPress and plugins remain your responsibility. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Backups:<\/strong> They run automatically, and someone has already tested the restore process. With classic web hosting, backups often exist, but rarely has anyone checked them. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Performance:<\/strong> Caching, image sizes, and load times are tuned to your site instead of the average of all customers.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Point of contact:<\/strong> You reach people who know your website, not a ticket system.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Responsibility:<\/strong> It lies with the hosting partner, in writing in the contract. With classic web hosting, you bear it yourself. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n                                <\/div>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                        <\/article>\n                                            <article id=\"blogbeitrag-block_d348e91749f23085f435c4e3c7a479c9-3-the-worst-case-scenario-php2shell\" class=\"blogbeitrag-chapter\">\n                            <div class=\"row gx-xl-4\">\n                                <div class=\"col-12 col-xl-8 blogbeitrag-chapter-text\">\n                                    <h2>The worst-case scenario: PHP2Shell as a real-world example<\/h2>\n<p>PHP2Shell is a security vulnerability in PHP, the programming language WordPress runs on. Attackers can use it to execute malicious code on a server without logging in. No WordPress update and no security plugin could help, only a PHP update on the server. Here\u2019s how October 21, 2026 played out (CEST):<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>The day before:<\/strong> Details about the vulnerability leak online early.<\/li>\n<li><strong>9:43 AM:<\/strong> Cloudflare reports the first attack attempts.<\/li>\n<li><strong>4:00 PM:<\/strong> The PHP project releases secured versions.<\/li>\n<li><strong>4:10 PM:<\/strong> All PHP versions on our hosting server are updated.<\/li>\n<li><strong>5:15 PM:<\/strong> All clients have an email update in their inbox. There\u2019s nothing they need to do. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Now the same afternoon without a managed service. First, you have to even notice the vulnerability exists. Then figure out whether your site is affected, who applies the update, and whether it\u2019s already been done. If your site runs on your own server, it\u2019s all on you: the update, restarting PHP, and checking that everything still works afterwards. Even major Linux distributions were still reporting \u201cpatches in progress\u201d on October 21. All that time, your site is vulnerable, while the attack tool has already been circulating.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll find the detailed timeline and a guide on how to check your site yourself in our guide <a href=\"https:\/\/onnetwork.agency\/en\/php2shell-wordpress\/\">PHP2Shell: What the critical PHP vulnerability means for your WordPress site<\/a>.<\/p>\n                                <\/div>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                        <\/article>\n                                            <article id=\"blogbeitrag-block_d348e91749f23085f435c4e3c7a479c9-4-wordpress-maintenance-whats-included\" class=\"blogbeitrag-chapter\">\n                            <div class=\"row gx-xl-4\">\n                                <div class=\"col-12 col-xl-8 blogbeitrag-chapter-text\">\n                                    <h2>WordPress maintenance in a managed service: What\u2019s included<\/h2>\n<p>Whether you work with us or someone else: these points belong in a solid managed service.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Critical vulnerabilities in the server and PHP are closed the same day, and PHP is restarted afterwards. Without a restart, the old code keeps running. <\/li>\n<li>WordPress, themes, and plugins are updated regularly and tested beforehand. Otherwise, in the worst case, an update can take down your contact form or shop. <\/li>\n<li>Backups run automatically, are stored in a second location, and restores have been tested at least once.<\/li>\n<li>Uptime, SSL certificate, and suspicious file changes are monitored continuously.<\/li>\n<li>Caching and optimized images deliver strong Core Web Vitals.

The math changes when you put it next to an incident. A hacked website goes down, loses rankings once Google flags it as unsafe, and takes serious effort to clean up. If personal data is affected, for example from contact forms or a shop, you generally have to report the data breach to the supervisory authority within 72 hours (Art. 33 GDPR).<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll quote a price on request, tailored to your website and the scope of support.
