Not sure what “managed hosting” actually means?
You’re not alone. It’s one of those phrases that gets thrown around a lot in hosting — but it’s not always clear what you’re actually getting. So let’s break it down, in plain English.
What Is Managed Hosting?
Managed hosting means someone else takes care of the technical stuff for you.
With unmanaged hosting, you’re on your own — you rent the server space and handle everything else: updates, security, backups, software installs, the lot.
With managed hosting, we handle all that behind the scenes, so you can focus on running your site, not running your server.
What’s Included in Managed Hosting?
At Clook, our managed hosting includes:
✅ Monitoring & Maintenance
We keep an eye on your server 24/7, apply patches and upgrades, and fix things before they become problems.
✅ Backups & Security
Daily backups, firewall protection, malware monitoring and more — all built in.
✅ Performance Tuning
We optimise for your platform (WordPress, Joomla, etc.) for speed and reliability. No need to hire a server expert.
✅ Expert Support
You get fast, human help from our UK-based team. No scripts, no call centres.
Who Is Managed Hosting For?
It’s ideal if:
- You don’t have a tech team
- You want less stress managing your website
- You run a site that’s important to your business
Managed hosting can be used for both single websites and resellers with multiple clients — it scales with you.
Do I Really Need Managed Hosting?
Here’s a simple way to think about it:
- If you’re comfortable with SSH, firewalls, and server updates — you might not need it.
- If you’d rather focus on your website or business, managed hosting saves time, avoids stress, and gives peace of mind.
Some of our clients come to us after learning the hard way that managing it all yourself isn’t worth the hassle.

Each option comes with full support and is tailored to what you actually need — not a one-size-fits-all solution.
