LWS hosting and partnership: a solution tailored to your business
The choice of hosting affects a website’s availability, security and ease of administration. As an official LWS partner, Elvis Web supports its clients in preparing their WordPress projects and selecting a suitable hosting solution. We align the website’s requirements with technical constraints, without recommending a package that is more complex than necessary. We prioritise decisions that meet a genuine need rather than adding features or content without a clear purpose. Defining the right scope enables us to move forward with a clear vision of the expected outcome, the constraints and the next steps.
Why web hosting matters for your website
A hosting solution must be suited to the type of website, the expected traffic, the resources required and the skills of the person managing it. A showcase website and an online shop handling a large number of orders do not necessarily have the same requirements. You should also consider backups, HTTPS certificates, updates, support and scalability.
In practice, priorities vary depending on your business, your resources and your customers. We discuss matters with you before recommending a solution, so that we can distinguish between what is essential and what can be planned for later. This approach avoids unnecessary expenditure and makes the project easier to manage.
Support that goes beyond the purchase
Simply choosing a package is not always enough. The configuration of the domain, DNS, SSL certificate, database and WordPress must be consistent. Elvis Web can assist with the preparation and set-up stages within the scope defined in the quotation. We explain the responsibilities of the hosting provider and the web service provider so that everyone knows who to contact depending on the issue.

Integrated website design and hosting
When the website is created at the same time as the hosting is set up, the necessary settings can be configured in advance: the appropriate PHP version, administrator access, basic security, backups and URL configuration. This coordination helps to minimise oversights at launch. If your website already exists, we check for any constraints before a migration to avoid any downtime or data loss.

How do you choose the right package?
The choice depends on the number of sites, storage, server resources, email requirements, traffic and support options. It is advisable to allow for a reasonable margin, without paying for an overly large-scale architecture. As prices and specifications are subject to change, they must be checked against the current LWS offer at the time of ordering.

Migration, backups and business continuity
A migration requires you to prepare a copy of the files and the database, check for compatible versions and test the site before the DNS switchover. Forms, logins, payments and links must be checked after the transfer. A usable backup is essential: simply having one is not enough; you must know how to restore the site in the event of an incident.

Official partnership and transparency
LWS partner status is a mark of trust in the support we provide, but does not mean that all hosting services are included in every quote. Terms and conditions, renewals, options and responsibilities must be clarified before you commit. We help you understand the technical aspects and choose a solution that is suited to your project.

Frequently Asked Questions about LWS hosting and partnerships
Is Elvis Web an official LWS partner?
Elvis Web presents itself as an official LWS partner. For details of the hosting specifications, prices and contractual terms, please refer to the official LWS information at the time of ordering.
Is web hosting included in the website design service?
It depends on the package you choose. The quote specifies whether hosting, the domain name or the first year’s fee are included, and sets out the renewal costs.
Can you migrate a website to LWS?
Yes, once the size of the website, access details, email settings, software versions and any constraints have been checked. A backup must be carried out before the transfer.
Who steps in if the server breaks down?
The hosting provider handles incidents affecting its infrastructure. Elvis Web can provide support for WordPress, the theme, plugins and configuration as part of its remit. A diagnostic assessment helps to clarify responsibilities.
Is LWS suitable for all sites?
Not necessarily. The choice depends on requirements, traffic levels, resources and the level of availability required. A project with high traffic or high availability requirements necessitates a specific assessment.

Hosting, performance and security on a day-to-day basis
A website’s speed does not depend solely on the server. Image file sizes, the number of plugins, the theme, third-party scripts, caching and the quality of the code all play a part. It is therefore worth measuring the website’s performance before switching hosting providers: this assessment helps to distinguish between a resource limitation and an optimisation issue.
Security, too, relies on several layers: updates, strong passwords, restricted access, separate backups and a recovery procedure. No hosting service exempts you from maintaining WordPress and its plugins. For an online shop or website that cannot afford a prolonged outage, it is essential to specify availability requirements, the desired recovery time and the responsibilities of each party involved.
Before placing an order, please check directly with LWS to confirm the resources, limits, renewal terms and options included in your chosen package. Elvis Web can help you prepare any technical queries and coordinate hosting with the creation or maintenance of your website. Find out more about website design.
Clarify costs and responsibilities
When preparing the project, make a clear distinction between the initial set-up cost, the hosting subscription, the domain name, any email accounts, licences and maintenance. Check the billing frequency and the renewal terms. Also keep a record of who holds the accounts and the recovery procedures. This transparency helps avoid unpleasant surprises and makes it easier to migrate in the future should your needs change.
