Hospitality
A restaurant website that goes down on Valentine's Day or Mother's Day doesn't just lose bookings -- it loses customers who rebook elsewhere and don't come back. Hospitality sites have the most predictable and most expensive failure moments in any sector.
ResDiary, OpenTable, Bookatable, and WooCommerce Bookings all generate API calls on every booking request. Slow PHP response times mean abandoned bookings. Adequate PHP workers and fast database access ensure the booking process completes first time, every time.
Mother's Day, Valentine's Day, Christmas party season, and bank holiday weekends bring predictable traffic spikes. On shared hosting these spikes cause slowdowns or outages precisely when the financial stakes are highest. Dedicated bare-metal resources absorb them.
Gift vouchers, merchandise, and experience packages sold through WooCommerce need reliable checkout. The period between Christmas and New Year -- when vouchers are redeemed -- is peak checkout load for many hospitality businesses.
Restaurant discovery is primarily local search. A slow site hurts Core Web Vitals scores, which directly affects "restaurants near me" and "[cuisine] [location]" ranking positions. LiteSpeed Enterprise with CDN delivery keeps scores consistently in the "Good" range.
Seasonal menus, event listings, and daily specials updated frequently. A staging environment means these changes can be tested before going live -- no broken layout on the website when the first table arrives.
Booking data -- names, contact details, dietary requirements, special occasions -- is personal data under UK GDPR. UK data centre hosting and proper data handling supports your compliance position for customer data.

Security
Two layers of active protection — server-level and CDN — built in as standard. Not an add-on, not an upgrade.
Enterprise DDoS Protection
Dual-layer defence — our CDN absorbs volumetric attacks at the network edge; server-level protection blocks application-layer threats before they reach WordPress.
Web Application Firewall
Active WAF at both CDN and server level. Blocks SQL injection, XSS, and malicious request patterns automatically, with continuously updated rules.
Real-Time Malware Scanning
Continuous server-wide scanning detects infections the moment they occur. Automatic cleanup included — no extra charge, no waiting for a ticket.
Automated WordPress Hardening
Security settings are enforced automatically across every site: file permissions, wp-config.php lockdown, PHP execution blocked in uploads, XML-RPC disabled, and admin rate limiting — all kept in sync without manual intervention.
Login & Brute Force Protection
Server-level rate limiting on wp-login, automatic IP blocking on repeated failures, and CAPTCHA enforcement. Offending IPs are blocked before they slow your site.
Container Isolation (Enhance CP)
Every site runs in an isolated container. A compromised site cannot affect neighbouring accounts — no shared PHP processes, no shared filesystem access between customers.
IP Reputation & Country Blocking
Continuously updated threat intelligence blocks known malicious IPs at the server level. Country-level restrictions available where appropriate.
Vulnerability Scanning & Patching
Weekly scans across all WordPress installations identify vulnerable plugins, themes, and core files. Bulk update tools apply patches server-wide automatically.
Uptime & Keyword Monitoring
Real-time uptime monitoring with keyword checks — we know if your site goes down or serves unexpected content before your customers do.
All security features included on every plan — no add-ons, no upgrades required.
