End the common
time destroying issues
that plague business owners
Don’t settle for out of date, legacy providers and their dated, low performance hardware.
Our systems are wicked fast and we can prove it.
We used the standard WpPerformanceTester plugin to benchmark one of our websites, head to head, against a “GoDaddy Basic Managed WordPress” account we set up for this comparison.
NerdUndergrounds platform completed all tests in 0.349 seconds. 🙂
GoDaddy took 10.788 seconds.
NU finished the benchmark test 30X TIMES faster than GoDaddy.
Legacy providers cannot compete with our “stack” that has been optimized from the bottom up to run wordpress websites fast and efficiently.
*** Benchmark was completed December 2020 on two brand new accounts..
No more surprise outages
Updates suddenly breaking your wordpress website is a common problem. Simply setting your wordpress website for auto-updating is just asking for trouble.
Updates happen all at once, something breaks, and you have no idea which plugin or theme caused the problem.
Our proprietary update system systematically updates one wordpress component at a time and detects if any side effect occurs.
If an issue is detected, automatic rollback occurs, and an engineer is alerted to address the issue.
Constant monitoring for updates
Security Tighter Than Fort Knox
The 8 layers of security, which our experts have developed over the past decade, prevent the need to implement any additional security measures, or use slow, bloated, security plugins that negatively impact site performance.
With WPPODS, your site is safe and secure.
We take part in the AbuseIPDB program and report every malicious IP address we detect every hour on our servers so other sysadmins can proactively block bad actors we have already previously detected.
Sleep soundly at night
Get your website monitored every minute of every day.
Have an engineer, on call, instantly notified, to immediately address any detected issues.
Critical for any business
Backups are securely stored, in a remote datacenter, over 2000 miles away, to prevent catastrophic loss, in case of natural disasters.
We do backups of your website and database daily, and keep 6 months of backups.
Time wasting, frustrating SPAM?
Our fully integrated SPAM system stops spammers from contacting you through your own website contact forms.
Stops comment spam and user registration spam as well.
Don’t frustrate your users with captcha’s. No longer required with our spam system.
We stop the thousands of bots on the web dead in their tracks.
Speed and stability
We test the best of the best data centers against each other every quarter, and only choose the top best in terms of stability and performance for our high powered server farms.
Our engineers are like automotive gear heads, except they work on our wordpress stack every month to constantly improve it.
WpPods was created by OctaGeeks. A web agency and web designer training company. At OctaGeeks, we quickly realized that an enormous amount of time was wasted on every client website build, dealing with numerous, all too common, wordpress hosting issues, which are common with legacy hosting providers.
So we crafted our own internal solution, which we leveraged for over a decade, saving gobs of time on every project, which ran flawlessly. Our clients never called us with website issues.
We are now making our technology available to everyone.
We specialize in the Elementor Page Builder, and have optimized all systems, from the ground up to turbo charge it.
Our top engineers have ethical hacking backgrounds. We have 8+ layers of wordpress security baked into every WpPod. No need to install WP security plugins. They are bloated and slow your site down. Our testing has shown that security plugins can slow your wordpress website down 30% or more.
We are obsessive about our security systems. In fact, we literally installed all the best backdoor hacking shells we could find, as a final test of our security systems. All of them failed to cause a single issue or gain access.
The hosting industry used to run on physical hardware. Then evolved to virtualization, due to numerous benefits. But virtual machines we’re very fat/bloated, and each one contained a copy of a full operating system.
Then new technology like Docker, popularized “containers”, which got rid of a lot of the bloat, by only keeping the parts necessary to run an app inside a container.
But this still contained bloat not required to run wordpress. So we took it a step further. A WpPod, is a container, specifically built to run wordpress, no less, and no more. This makes it leaner, meaner, and more secure.
There are no additional moving parts hackers can take advantage of, like when you run your website on a full operating system.

Because having a control panel means YOU are the sysadmin. This is a dead giveaway that your hosting is not truly managed. Control panels should be for experienced techies only. We’ve heard one too many sad stories about website owners destroying their website by accidentally misusing their hosting control panel.
WpPods is a “wordpress platform”, designed to run on full auto-pilot.
An IT manager, at a big company, never has to log into a control panel to do backups, upgrades and security scans. Why? Because the IT company has a full staff of sysadmins that actively keeps things running smoothly, backed up. updated. and secure.
We believe you deserve the same.
We offer support via live chat and email. However, if you have to contact us with an issue, we consider this a massive failure on our part.
We are obsessive about making sure our systems and entire “stack” runs flawlessly so you never have to contact us.
The majority of customers don’t contact us, after the initial setup for months, or years at a time.
