As someone who has been in the WordPress space since 2013, I've tried many hosts with my own site -- including SiteGround, Pressable, and SiteDistrict.
I've also had experience working on client sites managed with Pantheon, WPEngine, and even self-managed boxes on CloudFlare.
This was the first no-touch migration I've ever experienced, for one. I had to start a chat to see if it was really finished.
I began as a Starter Customer ($30/mo) back in 2022 and quickly changed to the Pro Plan for 1-3 sites ($60/mo).
Before I rebuilt my site, it was an image-heavy Beaver Builder site. No dig on them (love Beaver Builder) but it loads slowly -- but not when I switched to Rocket.net hosting!
I was so impressed with the pricing, hosting, speed, SEO, support, and performance, that I decided to go to the Business Plan ($100/mo) and build a few sites for friends. (This is the best deal because it knocks down the cost of my own site, to be honest.)
One website, in particular, is for a handyman in Door County, WI. To say the internet is spotty up there (cell and WiFi) is a huge understatement. Though it's where Chicago goes to play in the summer, it is really hard to get good service. All of that is to say that website hosting speed and performance -- especially on mobile -- is paramount.
My handyman friend has seen rave reviews from friends and received new business (even from San Francisco).
The only reason people are impressed with the website is the hosting speed. To be honest, this is a simple Twenty Twenty-Four Theme brochure website. But they can get the right information, read blog posts, and can easily contact him.
Every time I've had a minor issue, like questions about upgrading to my current plan, questions about the new template feature (which I love, btw), or anything else, the support is kind, friendly, knowledgeable, and right on.
Customers have access to an extensive knowledge base, too.
Most hosting companies these days focus on agency accounts and ignore individual customers. Rocket is different. They actually care about individual businesses, too. Enterprise-level hosting for $30/mo is a steal. But don't tell them to raise their prices, please.
