Australian WordPress Hosting on cPanel
Combine the power of cPanel hosting with WordPress for the gold standard in hosting.
WordPress is without doubt the most popular platform for building a website. Choosing the right hosting platform to power WordPress can be the difference between a fast and secure site or a slow site that is easily hacked. By choosing cPanel hosting from UpTime you are building your site on local, fast servers where performance and security are not add-ons but included as standard.
Choosing the right cPanel plan.
The plan you need for your WordPress website depends entirely on what you are intending to host. Different plans provide different levels of performance, so a large e-commerce site running WooCommerce will need more resources than say a small hobby site.
Plans and resources can be quite confusing so we’ve listed our recommended plans for popular uses. If you’re not sure, reach out to our support team and we’ll be happy to assist. You can always start on a smaller plan and upgrade later if needed.

WP Guardian
Comprehensive WordPress security
With over 3,000 new WordPress vulnerabilities detected each year, it’s hard for developers to keep up. Hackers may use new exploits before developers can patch their plugin or themes leaving your site exposed.
WP Guardian uses a worker plugin that constantly searches for new vulnerabilities. When a known issue is detected, the plugin automatically downloads special protection rules and applies them, ensuring your site isn’t compromised. Best of all, once an appropriate update has been developed, the special protection rules are automatically unapplied, ensuring they don’t affect your site’s overall performance.
Purchase WP Guardian directly from within the WP Toolkit in your hosting account.
MailChannels
Premium Email Spam Protection
Protect your mailboxes against spam, phishing and malware with premium filtering. With the latest security and multi-layered protection from MailChannels.
Never lose an important message. Instead of silently filing messages to the junk folder, MailChannels IQ™ generates a link that the sender can use to get their email released instantly.
The Quarantine Digest gives you an overview of emails that have been quarantined. Choose between a daily or weekly Quarantine Digest to be sent to your inbox. A direct link allows you to release any emails that are not spam and optionally whitelist them in the future.
