FAQ

My website is small. Will anyone really attack it?

Yes. Most attacks are automatic and target any website with a weak spot, whatever its size.

Will you maintain my website?

No. You learn a simple routine and follow it yourself. It takes less than an hour a month.

Are backup and security tools included?

No. Many good tools are free or included with your hosting. If you choose a paid tool, you pay the provider directly.
