Receptional – Managed WordPress Hosting for a Leading Digital Agency

Client Overview

Receptional is one of the UK's most highly regarded SEO and digital marketing agencies, working with major brands across a range of sectors. As specialists in digital performance, they advise clients on the precise factors that determine how well a website performs in search - including the hosting environment it sits on. It was important that their own site was hosted to the same standard they would recommend to clients.

The Challenge

Following a comprehensive redesign and rebuild of the Receptional website - a project we delivered in an earlier phase of the relationship - the question of ongoing hosting and technical support needed to be resolved. The agency required a hosting environment that was genuinely managed, not simply a server arrangement with a support ticket system attached. Speed, security, reliability, and proactive maintenance were non-negotiable requirements for a business whose credibility in part rests on its own digital performance.

Our Approach

We moved the Receptional website onto our managed hosting infrastructure, providing a fully dedicated environment maintained and monitored by our team. The transition from the previous hosting arrangement was handled without any disruption to the live site, with DNS changes managed carefully and the site verified fully operational on the new platform before any changes became visible.

The ongoing support arrangement gives Receptional's team a single point of contact for all technical matters - hosting, security, WordPress maintenance, and any issues that arise - without the need to manage relationships with multiple providers.

What We Delivered

  • Migration of the Receptional website to 1WL's managed WordPress hosting infrastructure
  • A fully managed hosting environment with 24/7 monitoring, daily backups, and Cloudflare edge security
  • Ongoing WordPress maintenance including core, theme, and plugin updates
  • A single point of technical contact for the Receptional team on all hosting and support matters

The Outcome

Receptional's website sits on a hosting platform that matches the standard they would recommend to clients - fast, secure, proactively maintained, and supported by people who understand the site's architecture and history. The managed arrangement removes the overhead of technical hosting management from the agency's team entirely, allowing them to focus on their clients and their work.
