Kinsta is the managed WordPress host for sites where speed and support justify a higher bill. The Single 20GB plan costs $35 per month, or $30 per month when you pay $350 a year, and the first month is free. It covers one WordPress install with 10GB of storage, 20GB of server bandwidth and 125GB of CDN bandwidth, 14 days of backup retention and unlimited free migrations. Kinsta lists enterprise DDoS protection, a CDN, advanced caching, automatic daily backups, uptime monitoring, bot protection and APM as included in all plans, which covers most of what a busy site needs without plugins. Support is 24/7 from humans in eight languages. The limits are cost and scope: an extra site adds $30 per month, extra disk space is $20 per 20GB, and these plans host WordPress only. Agencies have separate plans from $340 per month.
